This would explain the pause of the NCIB. Same playbook Dream Office used before announcing their SIB. Last buyback was April 14... SIB announced May 4... helping the unit price to sink from $13.4 to $12.21...
$100M @ $8.33 would mean 12M shares or ~10% of total outstanding shares - - a balance between oppertunistic and prudent capital management, imho.
$8.33 would be a ~19% premium from where we are now.
Shorter amount of time between annoucenemnt and tender deadline the better...
...it's what I would do... lock in the offer premium before announcing strong Q2 results.
If Trudeau gets his way and taxes Buybacks (Including REITs, which is the plan), its best AX does these buybacks now.
