The 8-K confirms the Avenzo Therapeutics merger will close after trading on November 20, 2026, Nasdaq has approved the new listing, and the $13.90 per share special cash distribution remains on track for November 30, 2026. This de-risks the previously announced deal timeline and locks in the cash payment mechanics for holders. The main residual risk is that closing conditions could still be unsatisfied, delaying the transaction.
