RE:RE:shares/cash numbers, tendering date extendedAlmost right, but not quite.
I believe this 2.9493X Aurora shares + $5.70 per CMED would apply
ONLY IF ALL 100% of this 17.85M tendered shares had all selected the all-cash Option 2 without any exceptions at all. Since this was clearly not the case, then it means the dollar cash amount for those selecting the all cash option will certainly be higher than $5.70 per CMED share owned. For example, if exactly half of the 17.85M tendered shares opted for the all-cash option, then I believe the cash portion of the payout should then amount to $11.40 (i.e. $5.70 X 2) for each CMED share owned.
Of course, this then presents the opportunity for a rather puzzling situation for the pending 2nd round of this takeover offer. For example, if the share price of Aurora should somehow manage to rise to say $13.50 or above and stay there, then the remaining 29.34% of the would all be tempted to go for the all-share Option 1. If this actually happens, then this would mean that Aurora would not have to pay out any of the remaining $42M dollars that has now been set aside for the remaining untendered shares.
Ahhh..........a second opportunity for Aurora not having to pay out any cash for the remaining untendered shares. Hmmm..........
