Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
A 16M-share primary offering plus a 2.4M over-allotment dilutes existing holders, often pressuring share price near pricing date; proceeds may be accretive if deployed effectively, but market typically prices in dilution risk before deployment success. Historical examples show mixed outcomes when new equity is bolstered by acquisition aims.
