Arcus’ shareholders will in aggregate receive shares representing approximately a 46.5% ownership in the combined company. Arcus will receive 0.4618 new shares in Altia for each share registered as held in Arcus upon completion of the merger. “This combination of two equal Nordic companies is a logical continuation on Altia’s strategic journey that started with the initial public offering in 2018.
