Doesn’t look like it was favorable and they are going private. Buyouts are not always the best for investors. They did a split before this.
“Liminal BioSciences Shares Hit 52-Week High After Buyout Offer
Mentioned: LMNL
By Chris Wack
Liminal BioSciences shares were up 40% at $8.32 after the company said Wednesday that Structured Alpha, a fund managed by Thomvest Asset Management, will buy all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Liminal BioSciences that it doesn't already own.
The stock hit its 52-week high of $8.36 earlier in the session, and is up 41% in the past 12 months.
Under the terms of the deal, Liminal BioSciences shareholders will receive $8.50 in cash per share, which represents a premium of 135% over Liminal BioSciences' closing share price on April 4, which is $1 a share more than Structured Alpha's initial non-binding proposal.
A termination fee of $322,000 would be payable by Liminal to Structured Alpha in certain circumstances, including if Structured Alpha fails to exercise its right to match in the context of a superior proposal supported by the company.
The transaction is expected to close no later than Sept. 30.
