Who knows, but ARRS; giving a bracket of pricing for the acquisition?

Traditionally, the buyer suffers(dilution), and the seller gains(sold above cost); because common sense would have emotional investors buy the buyer stock, so pull back will prevent unbalanced trading. Seller is getting premium over the true cost(for ARRS, that can be tax deductible later when they write off good will).

But, it is as usual going to go thru twist and turn. ARRS may have bought C-Cor at less than $10 and now sold at $13+. It was done by Oracle buying Peoplesoft?

C-cor may not perform and suffer a payment when agreement is not performing.

So, I just wait and see. The benefits are many; and it maybe win-win situation all around; but stocks gyration may be investment opportunity yet?
