The shareholder vote removes a key condition precedent, shifting focus to regulatory approvals. Monitor for Federal Reserve, Alabama State Banking Department, and Utah Department of Financial Institutions decisions — any delay or denial would be the primary risk to the timeline. The stock will likely trade on regulatory progress updates rather than fundamentals until close.
