Prysmian to acquire Atkore for $95 per share in a $3.8B all-cash deal

Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

The all-cash offer at $95 puts a floor on ATKR’s value and typically catalyzes an immediate re-rating toward the deal price. Historically, cash buyouts yield sharp pre-close moves; risk remains around regulatory approvals and shareholder vote timing, but the premium vs recent trading levels strongly supports upside.
