The IRG contribution agreement is the key swing factor — monitor proxy statement filing and shareholder vote timeline. Standalone fundamentals are deteriorating (credit losses, declining book value, higher costs). The combined entity's $3.4B enterprise value implies significant dilution for current shareholders. Watch for any financing details or termination conditions in the proxy.
