The $46.5M sale at ~20% of market cap ($231M) is a material deleveraging event for Stratus. Monitor the May 29 inspection period expiration — if Brixmor does not terminate, the deal is highly likely to close given no financing contingency. The $20M net proceeds represent a significant cash infusion for a company with a $231M market cap. Watch for any competing offer or HEB ROFR re-exercise risk.
