Is my math correct?

About 92% of all shares tendered?  And they are going to buy about 4.35% of your tendered shares?.

So, someone with 10,000 tendered shares with a basis of $8.00C ($80,000 worth) will have about 435 shares repurchashed at $12C making $4 profit on 435 shares or $1740, equivalent to a dividend of just over 2%. Then for many, if not all, they withhold taxes from you $$?

So, how did they come up with this 6.6% yield in the initial press release?

"CALGARY, AB, Sept. 4, 2024

Offer Results in a CAD$0.48 Per Share Distribution or 6.6% Yield (to Frontera's Share Price Prior the Offer's Announcement) Assuming Full and Pro-Rata Shareholder Participation"


"Approximately 77,565,602 Shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn. Since the Offer was oversubscribed, the tendered Shares will be purchased on a pro rata basis following the determination of the final results of the Offer. Frontera currently expects that shareholders who tendered will have approximately 4.35% of their tendered Shares purchased by the Company." 

Only de Alba and team could come up with such a complex and costly way of distributing so little money to the average stakeholder.

I think the 6.6 comes from market cap at the time of the deal about $611MM @ 7.25 share price and the 40.5MM paying out.

A total of 3 investors have a majority stake in the company with 53% ownership.   So this would indicate that with 84.19M shares outstanding they tendered 44.62M shares and sold 4.35% 1.94M shares @$4.00 CDN = $7.76M CDN for their investors.   For a company that is supposed to have $180.66M cash on hand (from Yahoo) why would they do this??

The way I see this is ...as I was saying ....there is a farm down already ...they do not need to publicly announce until all the contracts signed ...so ...I see this a a very good way of getting weak hands out ...I just bought a few more ...it's a big con game played by professional horse traders ...
