So here is the math behind the deal in my post https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=138675885
Generally, when deals are announced they will trade close to, but under the valuation. A bit of a hedge and a 5%-10% discount is not unusual. That said, RAD should be trading at about $2.25- $2.38.
However, it appears that the market is not buying Albertson's valuation of $23.16 for it's shares.
If we take the current trading of RAD at $1.60 today and with a deal giving 1.079 shares of the new Albertson's for every 10 shares of RAD, we would take 1 share of RAD X 10 = $16. Divide $16 by 1.079 and that mean the market is currently valuing Albertsons at $14.83. That is a 36% discount!
When Albertson's initially proposed its IPO (from my same post cited above)
The fall in Albertson's valuation from 2015 ($30.25/share) to Feb 2018 ($23.16/share) was a 23.5% drop. To say that Albertson's valuation has dropped another 36% in less than two month's leaves a person scratching their heads.
So that means either the market is not buying Albertson's valuation at the time of the deal, or not confident that the deal will go through.
Assuming the deal goes through (and so far no indicators that it will not) buying at $1.60 a good calculated risk.
