48North Gets Shareholder Approval For Hexo Corp Buyout

48North Cannabis Corp. (TSXV: NRTH) shared on Tuesday that its shareholders greenlit the previously announced 100% equity acquisition of the company by Hexo Corp (TSX: HEXO). The proposed plan of arrangement related to the transaction was voted in favor by 98.27% of the shareholders present during the special meeting.

Under the arrangement, 48North shareholders will receive 0.02366 Hexo shares for each share held. Approximately, existing shareholders will hold 5,352,038 Hexo shares, or 3.39% of the float, upon the transaction’s close. Per the last closing price, the exchange ratio translates to $0.103 per 48North share and puts the transaction value north of $23.2 million – a far cry from the original $0.175 equivalent shareholders expected to receive at the time of announcement.
