Sysco plans a $1.0 billion equity raise through the issuance of new common shares to partly finance the takeover of Jetro Restaurant Depot, with a 30-day overallotment option for the syndicate banks of up to $150 million. The measure risks significant dilution of existing shareholders because the placement will proceed regardless of whether the transaction closes. After the announcement the stock fell 3.7% in after-hours trading to $80.49, well below the prior close and closer to the 52-week low. The report says the price decline was self-inflicted and not explained by general market movements. » Mere på de.investing.com
