It is rather to create value for the remaining unitholder.
Reducing the number of units increase the book value of the units.
Once eliminated, AD do not have to pay distribution to these units anymore.
It is the same as if AD was buying an investment earning 10.4%.
If AD can borrow at 5% to invest in its own unit earning 10.4%, it makes 5.4% profit
Nice !
They can invest money at 14-15% which is better than 10.4%.
