The stock will likely trade near the $61.20 deal price minus the time value of money and execution risk. The go-shop period introduces a small chance of a competing bid, but the deal is fully committed with no financing condition. Merger arbitrageurs should monitor the shareholder vote and regulatory approvals. The primary risk is deal failure, but the premium and committed financing suggest a high probability of closing.
