Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
The ISS and other proxy advisers backing FOR the Arrangement reduce the risk of a failed deal, increasing odds of closing. If completed, ORLA should track toward the offer price and removal of standalone equity risk; uncertainty remains on the exact premium, timing, and regulatory approvals, which historically drive near-term volatility in merger cases.
