Monitor the S-4 filing (due within 45 days) for financial details on the Group and the proxy statement for stockholder vote timing. The financing condition (Buyer must secure debt/equity by Outside Date) and the HMRC clearance condition are key binary risks. The lock-up structure limits near-term selling pressure from the ~30% new block.
