On June 8, 2021, Contango announced that it had signed an agreement to merge with Independence in an all-stock merger valued at approximately $5.7 billion. Pursuant to the merger agreement, at the close of the merger Contango stockholders will own approximately 24% of the combined company. The deal is scheduled to close in the late third quarter or early fourth quarter of 2021.
Bragar Eagel & Squire is concerned that Contango’s board of directors oversaw an unfair process and ultimately agreed to an inadequate merger agreement. Accordingly, the firm is investigating all relevant aspects of the deal and is committed to securing the best result possible for Contango’s stockholders.
