CTZ deal value to be negotiated up?
My reading of the 2/11/00 and 2/14/00 CTZ press releases (concerning stockholder approval and favorable IRS tax rulings) is that everything is now on track for a 3/1/00 closing.
If CTZ were planning to renegotiate the price, they would have to threaten to exercise their walk-away option and I would think that they would be taking a harder line in their public comments, rather than acting as if nothing could derail this deal now. It seems that the Board may have already come to the conclusion that a deal worth $47 and change is better than no deal at all (as some previous posts on this site have concluded).
Anyone disagree with this logic?
