The offering creates immediate dilution and overhang. Monitor for the final prospectus supplement for exact terms and any insider participation. The greenshoe option could add further dilution. Watch for use of proceeds announcements—acquisitions could offset dilution if accretive, but near-term price pressure is likely.
