How Microsoft's new AI feature explains this deal?
Sporty and others, this free AI feature of microsoft nickname copilot sure saves time. Everything below is written in 5 secs by only asking a detailed question about what pro rata means in stock repurchases and what is FEC's deal.
The only thing about this deal, not mentioned is Catalyst and Gramercy reserve the right to back out of the repurchase deal at any time for any reason. (maybe they know it will be worth more than $12C soon) So, if they back out and others sell their shares, Frank would be right, all along, they are shaking us out of our shares and the Vulture Capitalist will gain a higher percent of ownership thus the ownership structure would not reman the same. Both would own a higher % of the company than they currently have. Everything in blue is normally a link to where Microsoft got their info in seconds, just click on it.
"In the context of stock repurchases, “pro rata” means that the repurchase is conducted in proportion to each shareholder’s current ownership. Essentially, if a company decides to buy back its shares on a pro rata basis, it offers to repurchase the same percentage of shares from each shareholder.
For example, if a company wants to repurchase 10% of its outstanding shares, each shareholder would have the opportunity to sell back 10% of their shares to the company1. This ensures that the ownership structure remains relatively unchanged, as all shareholders are treated equally in the repurchase process.
