Monitor for definitive agreements and due diligence outcomes. The non-binding LOI leaves the stock exposed to binary event risk; any progress or delays will likely drive significant moves. Watch for insider selling and subsequent SEC filings (e.g., S-4, proxy statement) for deal terms and shareholder vote details.
