Planet 13 shares should trade toward the implied deal value, reflecting the 24% premium. The key risk is deal completion—monitor for stockholder vote, regulatory approvals (cannabis regulatory approvals), and the effectiveness of the S-4 registration statement. Any delays or regulatory hurdles could widen the arbitrage spread.
