The ASC Corporate Actions Calendar is best understood as a curated set of deal situations selected not for their headline interest but for the structural footprint they leave in the securities finance markets. Each entry, whether a cash tender, a stock-for-stock merger, a spin-off, a lockup expiration, or a convertible issuance, carries a defined set of mechanics: recall obligations at closing, manufactured-payment exposure across record dates, exchange-ratio hedging requirements, election and proration asymmetries, and supply-shock catalysts. These mechanics are not random. They follow from the deal structure and the regulatory framework governing it, which means they can be anticipated, tracked against known milestone dates, and to a meaningful degree analyzed in advance. The calendar's value lies precisely in mapping each deal to its predictable lending-market consequences: which ticker will face recall pressure, which will draw borrow demand from arbitrage hedging, and when the supply condition is likely to tighten or release.
That structural analysis is feasible in securities finance in a way that is not possible in the secondary or primary markets because the lending market is a comparatively closed system. Its participants are a bounded population of regulated entities, prime brokers, custodians, agent lenders, and institutional beneficial owners, operating under capital and balance-sheet constraints that limit how supply and demand can move. Inventory is finite and broadly identifiable, settlement and recall run on defined standard procedures with known timing, and corporate-action processing follows established conventions rather than open-ended price discovery. Because the inputs are constrained and the procedures are standardized, the effect of a given corporate action on borrow availability, utilization, and recall sequencing is far more tractable to model than the price path of the underlying equity. The calendar exploits that tractability: it treats each deal as a structural event whose lending-market consequences can be read off the mechanics, the participant set, and the procedural calendar, rather than guessed at from market sentiment.

| 82 | PRIVATE | LSTA | UPDATED Jun 22. Verified vs Lisata 8-K, SC 14D-9, and amended Merger Agreement. Kuva Acquisition Corp. (subsidiary of privately held Kuva Labs Inc.) commenced the all-cash tender offer on June 10, 2026 to acquire all Lisata shares at $4.00 per share cash (amended down from the original $5.00 announcement) plus one non-tradeable CVR worth up to $3.00 per share aggregate ($1.00 on certepetide Greater China reversion within 12 months; further milestone payments on NDA filing / GBM trial enrollment). Tender expires July 10, 2026; Section 251(h) back-end merger; ~$36.7M equity, ~85% premium. Close expected Q3 2026 subject to majority tender and customary conditions; Nasdaq delist on close. ALL-CASH (CVR non-cash) tender = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING; the borrow-relevant name is the target, LSTA. Kuva is private, no acquirer short leg. Set lending-agent calendar against the July 10 expiry; track the Schedule TO and 14D-9. |
| 78 | UCB | Peach State | NEW Apr 21-22. United Community Banks definitive merger agreement (announced Apr 21) to acquire Peach State Bancshares (parent of Peach State Bank & Trust, Gainesville GA). Consideration: each Peach State share may elect $31.75 cash OR 0.8978 UCB shares, subject to MANDATORY 50/50 PRORATION | 50% of aggregate Peach State shares receive cash, 50% receive stock, regardless of individual election. Outstanding Peach State options cashed out at closing. Aggregate deal value ~$100.8M based on UCB $34.15 close Apr 17. Peach State: ~$788M total assets, $498M loans, $713M deposits. Expected close Q3 2026; regulatory approval + Peach State shareholder approval. Accretion guidance: ~$0.09 EPS 2027 (~$0.12 with share repurchase offset). Mandatory 50/50 proration means the cashed-out half is a mandatory-recall event at closing for any Peach State loans outstanding; the stock-elected half converts to UCB shares at 0.8978 and rides through. Peach State is private-float-limited | not a primary lending focus. Track S-4 filing and shareholder meeting dates. Monitor UCB for merger-arb-related borrow demand; small deal relative to UCB market cap, expected limited impact. |
| 74 | QXO | BLD | UPDATED Jun 15. Verified against the QXO/TopBuild joint press release dated June 4, 2026 and the QXO Form S-4/A (joint proxy/prospectus dated May 29). TopBuild stockholders of record must elect by 5:00 p.m. ET on June 29, 2026 to receive either $505.00 cash OR 20.200 QXO shares per BLD share, subject to proration (aggregate about 45% cash / 55% stock); holders who do not submit a valid election default to stock consideration, with fractional QXO shares settled in cash. Dual QXO and TopBuild special meetings are set for June 29. Large mixed-consideration arb: long BLD / short QXO at the proration-adjusted ratio, so QXO carries the hedge-borrow demand from arbs while BLD carries recall pressure into close. Add QXO to the Hot List for HARDER rebate. BLD is an S&P MidCap 400 component; closing/delisting triggers MidCap 400 ETF rebalancing (MDY, IJH, IVOO, SPMD). Election deadline and the June 29 meetings are the near-term operational triggers; close expected Q3 2026 subject to the votes, HSR, and S-4 effectiveness. |
| 74 | ESQ | Signature | NEW Apr 16. Esquire Financial Holdings filed Form S-4 April 15, 2026 for all-stock acquisition of Signature Bancorporation. Exchange ratio: 2.63 ESQ shares per Signature share (adjustable 2.50-2.80 within collar). Implied aggregate transaction value ~$348.4M. Combined entity ~$4.8B assets. Close expected Q3 2026. Classic stock-for-stock merger arb: long Signature / short ESQ. Monitor ESQ borrow demand as arb desks establish positions. Small-cap bank means OMV may be limited. Exchange ratio adjustment mechanism introduces hedge ratio uncertainty. |
| 74 | ISSUER | IREN | NEW May 18. Iris Energy priced $2.6B convertible notes May 12, 2026; settled May 14. Capped-call overlay in place. Convert size represents approximately 32 percent of IREN's ~$8B equity market cap (largest single convert event in active SL coverage). Delta-hedge borrow demand significant on settlement; expect HARDER rebate regime as initial purchasers hedge convertible delta. Capped-call counterparty hedging adds to borrow pressure. Monitor utilization shift and rate trajectory through T+2 settlement clearing. SQUEEZE candidate per Trader Tier framework. Track for any IREN equity issuance follow-on that would offset hedge build. |
| 72 | IONQ | SKYT | SKYT stockholders approved merger with IonQ on May 8, 2026 (~$1.8B equity value at $35/share reference). Deal structure is cash/stock per definitive merger agreement; final mix subject to election mechanics. FTC SECOND REQUEST issued Apr 24 | antitrust timeline extended; expected close Q2/Q3 2026. Stock-leg arb borrow demand continues until regulatory clearance. Vote-approved-await-regulatory-close pattern. Monitor FTC milestone disclosures; borrow demand likely persists through second-request response window. |
| 70 | REAX | RMAX | Definitive merger announced ~Apr 25-26: Real Brokerage (REAX) acquires RE/MAX. ~$550M equity / ~$880M EV. RMAX holders elect 5.15 REAX shares OR $13.80 cash per share (proration mechanics TBD). Post-close ownership ~59% REAX / ~41% RMAX. Mixed consideration creates two-leg arb: RMAX may tighten as arbs build; REAX borrow firms if holders hedge stock leg. Watch election deadline, proration outcomes, and combined-company listing mechanics. Add RMAX to Hot List. |
| 70 | LGND | XOMA | Ligand Pharmaceuticals ($39.00/share cash + CVR). CVR CONFIRMED: one non-transferable CVR per XOMA share entitling holders to 75% of net proceeds from XOMA's pending litigation (verify "net" definition against definitive merger agreement). Arb sizing anchored on cash leg only; CVR carries unhedgeable option-like value. XOMA shareholder vote and customary conditions pending. Mandatory recall at closing. Verify CVR settlement routing for short positions against the merger agreement before close. Source: XOMA/Ligand merger documentation confirmed subsequent to Apr 27 coverage. |
| 70 | SOUN | LPSN | Definitive agreement Apr 21: SoundHound AI (SOUN) acquires LivePerson all-stock. LPSN equity value $43M (~22% premium to 30-day VWAP); total EV ~$250M after debt restructuring. Consideration: SOUN Class A stock via 10-day VWAP formula with $7 floor / $12 cap. Concurrent debt restructuring: ~$260M LPSN first/second-lien noteholders exchange into SOUN stock + cash. Close H2 2026; outside date Oct 2026 (extendable to Dec 2026). All-stock arb setup: long LPSN / short SOUN. Capped/floored VWAP requires dynamic exchange ratio modeling | more active hedging and borrow churn on SOUN than fixed-ratio deal. Concurrent notes restructuring adds execution conditions. SOUN equity has been volatile (~-54% over six months); monitor SOUN price relative to $7-$12 VWAP band for ratio sensitivity. Add SOUN to borrow watchlist for HARDER rebates as arb short builds. |
| 70 | SPINOFF | HONA | UPDATED Jun 15. Verified against the Honeywell press release / Form 10 registration. Honeywell's board set the record date and timing on June 5 and gave formal final approval of the Aerospace spin-off on June 15, 2026 into a new independent public company (expected Nasdaq: HONA); the Form 10 registration became effective on or about June 11. Record date June 15, 2026; distribution at 12:01 a.m. NY time on June 29, 2026 (one HONA share per two HON shares). Honeywell becomes Honeywell Technologies (automation-focused) post-spin. A 1-for-2 HON reverse split is effective June 29, contingent on the spin; cash in lieu of fractional shares. Spin/stub borrow event: watch HON and HONA when-issued (HONAV) activity, stub shorts, post-spin lendable supply, borrow-rate discovery in HONA, manufactured-payment and due-bill mechanics across the record date, and the CUSIP/option-deliverable adjustment from the reverse split. Recall and borrow-rate spikes are most likely between June 15 and June 29; these two dates are the operational triggers. |
| 69 | P/E | ELSE | NEW Apr 22. Electro-Sensors definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (Apr 21) with steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG (Battery Ventures portfolio company). All-cash at $7.75/share (~75% premium to Apr 20 close; per press release | verify against definitive proxy). Implied equity value ~$26.7M on ~3.45M shares outstanding. Unanimous special committee + full board approval. Shareholder approval expected H1 2026 (per press release; verify against definitive proxy statement). Closing expected WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 10 BUSINESS DAYS of customary conditions being met | tight recall coordination window. Post-close: ELSE becomes wholly-owned steute subsidiary and delists from Nasdaq. Short interest ~7,138 shares as of March 31 (~0.2% of float per media reports; verify via FINRA). All-cash take-private = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Begin winding down any ELSE loan positions; confirm timing upon proxy statement filing. |
| 69 | PRIVATE | FARM | NEW Apr 3. Definitive agreement March 4. Royal Cup acquiring Farmer Brothers at $1.29/share all-cash (~$28M on ~21.7M shares). Board unanimously approved and recommends. Close expected Q2 2026 (fiscal Q4 ending June 30). Nasdaq delist upon closing. Micro-cap take-private. Low deal premium vs. 52-week range ($1.21-$2.50). All-cash = mandatory recall at closing. |
| 68 | CVBF | HTBK | [TICKER CORRECTED: Heritage Commerce Corp = HTBK] California bank consolidation. March shareholder vote held (monitor result). S-4 filed 1/15. Close targeted 6/30/26. |
| 68 | P/E | JHG | NEW Mar 25. PRICE RAISED: Trian/General Catalyst raised take-private from $49.00 to $52.00/share (25% prem to unaffected Oct 24, 2025 price). Victory Capital (VCTR) withdrew competing $57.04/share bid on March 24 | JHG board reaffirmed Trian deal as sole actionable offer. Limited quarterly dividends permitted if close extends past June 30. Employee equity rollover allowed. ADD TO HOT LIST. Expect increased arb borrow demand as spread narrows to $52. |
| 68 | PB | STEL | PB/STEL announced Apr 22 receipt of ALL required regulatory approvals (Federal Reserve waiver, FDIC, Texas Dept. of Banking). S-4 declared effective Apr 21; proxy mailing began ~Apr 23. STEL special meeting May 27, 2026; close expected ~Jul 1. Per-share: $11.36 cash + 0.3803 PB shares (~70% stock / ~30% cash; ~$2.0B total). $78M termination fee. Mixed cash/stock arb: long STEL / short PB at 0.3803 ratio. With reg approvals in hand, deal certainty materially increased | arb positions firming now. Board unanimous; ~8.8% of shares under voting agreements. STEL held in regional bank ETFs (KRE, KBE, IAT) | rebalancing required upon delist. Monitor PB borrow for arb-driven firming. |
| 68 | USAR | USAR | NEW Apr 21. USA Rare Earth definitive agreement (Apr 20) to acquire 100% of Serra Verde Group, owner of the Pela Ema rare earth mine and processing plant in Goiás, Brazil. Consideration: $300M cash + 126,849,000 newly issued USAR shares; at Apr 17 close of $19.95 implies ~$2.8B equity value. Share-count expansion ~50% relative to pre-announcement outstanding base. USAR is a well-established HTB/special in the ASC benchmark set. 15-year 100% offtake agreement with a US-government-capitalized SPV with price floors for Nd/Pr/Dy/Tb. Serra Verde CEO Thras Moraitis becomes USAR President; Sir Mick Davis (Serra Verde Chair) joins USAR Board. Advisors: Moelis (USAR, financial), Latham & Watkins (USAR, legal); Goldman Sachs (Serra Verde, financial), White & Case (Serra Verde, legal); Allen Overy Shearman Sterling (Serra Verde shareholders, legal). USAR closed Apr 20 at $22.58 (+13.18%) on 42.7M volume (~118% above 3-month avg). Closing targeted Q3 2026 subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals (CFIUS specifically). Stock-for-stock consideration does NOT force close-out of short positions; loaned shares receive standard operational handling at the exchange ratio, but ~50% share-count expansion materially expands pro-forma float at close. Near-term: elevated specialness may persist as shorts reassess thesis against offtake/government-backing overlay. Russell-tier rebalancing is a live watch-item (inference only). Monitor utilization, DTA, RLA, unit flow, and short-stress markers through pre-close window. |
| 68 | RUM | Northern | NEW May 18. Rumble exchange offer for Northern Data (German target; XETRA listing) continued into additional acceptance period May 15 to June 1, 2026. Initial results showed Rumble had secured approximately 81.3 percent including committed shares. Each Northern Data share receives 2.0281 newly issued Rumble Class A shares. Per SEC Form 425 filing dated May 13. Northern Data trading expected to terminate after close, reducing liquidity for non-tendered shares. Cross-border (German target on XETRA, US public acquirer). RUM issuance creates hedge borrow demand on settlement; Northern Data residual liquidity and cross-border settlement mechanics require attention. Watch for any final extension and post-close delisting timeline. |
| 67 | ISSUER | MANE | Veradermics $384M secondary offering closed May 1 (3,843,790 shares at $100.00; concurrent PIPE with Suvretta Capital affiliates). Dual lock-up calendar: (1) ~Jul 30, 2026 | 90-day follow-on lock-up expiry (smaller supply event); (2) Aug 2, 2026 | ~20,000,170-share IPO-related lock-up expiry (primary desk supply event). Underwriters can release shares earlier on both dates. Active locate demand and fee volatility near-term. Forward-calendar Aug 2 as primary event. Add to IPO Lockup Monitor sheet. |
| 66 | MCFT | MPX | NEW Mar 25. MasterCraft Boat acquiring Marine Products Corp. S-4 filed March 16. $2.43 cash + 0.232 MCFT shares per MPX share (~$7.79 implied at announcement). Post-merger, former MPX holders own ~33.4% of combined entity. Both shareholder approvals required. Mixed consideration triggers basket options adjustment. |
| 66 | P/E | AVNS | Avanos Medical definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 13, 2026 with affiliates of American Industrial Partners (operationally-oriented PE firm) at $25.00/share all-cash. Enterprise value ~$1.272B. Premium: 72.1% to April 13 close (~$14.53); 82.8% to 30-day VWAP. Medical technology (enteral feeding, non-opioid pain management). TERMINATION FEE $37.5M (payable by Avanos in superior-proposal scenarios). NOT SUBJECT TO FINANCING CONDITION. ANNUAL MEETING POSTPONED from April 21, 2026 pending transaction close | eliminates standalone shareholder vote pathway; merger vote now the only route. Closing expected H2 2026, subject to HSR and customary regulatory clearances. Post-close: AVNS delists from NYSE. S&P SmallCap 600 constituent and IJR top-10 holder | removal triggers rebalancing across IJR, VIOO, SPSM. Short interest ~3.4M shares / 7.7% of float. AIP not publicly traded | no acquirer-side arb leg. All-cash PE structure = mandatory recall at closing. Long arb holding period expected into H2 2026. Monitor for preliminary proxy (DEFM14A) and HSR filing dates as near-term milestones. |
| 64 | BBBY | FTHM | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Bed Bath & Beyond Form 8-K and the Fathom PR Newswire release dated June 16-17, 2026. BBBY (NYSE) acquires Fathom Holdings (Nasdaq: FTHM) in an all-stock Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization; each FTHM share converts to 0.2236 BBBY shares, subject to closing adjustments, implying ~$53.4M equity value. FTHM survives as a wholly owned subsidiary, folded into the Everything Home strategy. Close expected H2 2026 subject to FTHM shareholder approval and regulatory clearances; S-4 / proxy upcoming. Small-cap, low-float all-stock arb: long FTHM / short BBBY at 0.2236. BBBY carries the hedge-borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-FTHM leg while FTHM carries the corporate-action recall pressure. Both names ride through to BBBY shares at the ratio; thin float on both sides makes borrow rate-sensitive. Add FTHM to the borrow watchlist; track the S-4 and meeting date. |
| 64 | HOMB | MCBI | NEW Mar 27. Home BancShares acquiring Mountain Commerce Bancorp in all-stock deal. S-4/A filed. Exchange ratio 0.85x HOMB per MCBI share. ~$154.8M deal value. Monitor MCBI borrow activity. Prepare for share conversion mechanics. Standard community bank merger arb | long MCBI / short 0.85x HOMB. |
| 64 | ISSUER | OPTU | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Optimum Communications (NYSE: OPTU, formerly Altice USA) press release and Form 8-K filed June 1, 2026. CSC Investments II LLC, a wholly owned Optimum subsidiary, launched a cash tender offer to purchase up to 120,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at $2.50 per share (vs. the $0.658 May 29 close), about 42.5% of Class A (about 30.6% of total Class A + Class B) after a concurrent Private Exchange Transaction with Next Alt. The tender expires 5:00 p.m. NY time on June 30, 2026, withdrawable until expiration; acquired shares are retired. It is part of a broader financial and structural restructuring (private placement, private exchange, potential public exchange, CSC Holdings debt deleveraging discussions with the Co-Op Group) intended to mitigate a multi-billion-dollar tax liability. Shares jumped 80%+ on announcement. Tender plus retirement contracts lendable Class A float into the June 30 expiry: set the recall/settlement calendar against the expiration, watch for proration if oversubscribed and any extension, and monitor the SC TO and related 8-K materials. |
| 62 | CCL | CUK | Carnival DLC collapse | CUK ADS delisted from NYSE upon scheme effectiveness. UK Court sanction + SEC registration still pending. Deadline 12/31/26. BEGIN IDENTIFYING ALL CUK LOAN POSITIONS. CUSIP transitions to new CCL on delist. |
| 62 | BKR | GTLS | NEW Apr 14. Baker Hughes acquiring Chart Industries at $210/share all-cash (~$13.6B). Chart shareholders approved deal October 2025. Baker Hughes has fully committed bridge debt financing to be replaced with permanent debt prior to close. Remaining regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions pending (US + EU antitrust have caused prior delays). GTLS is S&P MidCap 400 constituent | removal would likely trigger rebalancing across IJH, MDY, SPMD (verify current AUM before sizing impact). BKR $13.6B new debt shifts credit profile materially. All-cash structure = mandatory recall at closing; no ride-through. Monitor for closing date announcement. |
| 62 | BCO | NATL | $9.2B total incl. $2.6B assumed NATL debt. FINANCING MILESTONE Apr 6: BCO amended/extended credit facility from $2.225B to $3.85B ($1.025B delayed-draw term loan + $600M increased revolver). Proceeds earmarked for cash consideration and NATL debt refinancing. S-4/A and DEFM14A filed; dual special meetings set for June 30, 2026. Close expected Q1 2027. Financing secured is a deal-progression signal. BCO is the short leg | monitor borrow demand as proxy/S-4 advances. |
| 62 | PRIVATE | RLYB | S-4/A (amendment) filed Apr 24. Reverse merger with private Candid Therapeutics (Candid survives as subsidiary; combined entity expected ticker CDRX). 1-for-2.5 RLYB reverse split contemplated; assumed exchange ratio ~0.0716 post-split. $505.5M concurrent financing committed. Pro forma ownership: Candid holders ~57.55%, financing investors ~38.8%, RLYB holders ~3.65%. Heavy dilution; share conversion + new issuance materially expands supply post-close. Watch S-4/A effectiveness and vote scheduling for borrow-demand inflection. |
| 62 | TBD | SHCO | NEW Mar 27. Soho House & Co. (SHCO) definitive agreement for take-private transaction. Delisting pending as transaction advances. Lendable float will contract rapidly. KEEP ON HARD-RECALL WATCH. Review all outstanding SHCO loans ahead of delisting milestones. Full deal terms TBD | confirm from 8-K filing. |
| 62 | PRIVATE | DSP | NEW Apr 14. Viant Technology (DSP) Agreement and Plan of Merger April 14 to acquire TVision Insights, Inc. via reverse triangular merger (TII Merger Sub merges into Target; Target continues as wholly-owned DSP subsidiary). Consideration: $22.5M cash + 1,656,701 DSP Class A common shares. Small bolt-on | ~1.6M share issuance is ~1-2% of DSP Class A float. Close expected Q2 2026 subject to customary closing conditions. Minimal direct lending-market impact. Registration / resale window around new share issuance may create short-term overhang. Monitor DSP borrow post-close for inventory expansion. No recall action required. |
| 62 | PRIVATE | TDG | TransDigm: Stellant Systems acquisition financing closed Apr 17. Acquisition close still pending (subject to remaining customary conditions). Bolt-on aerospace defense acquisition. Concurrent buyback authorization continues. Watch for closing 8-K and any modification to authorized buyback execution post-close. |
| 61 | P/E | WSR | NEW Apr 13. Whitestone REIT all-cash take-private by Ares Real Estate funds at $19.00/share (~$1.7B). 12.2% premium to Apr 8 close; 26.5% premium to unaffected price. 56 convenience-focused retail properties (~4.9M sq ft) in TX/AZ. Unanimously approved. Not subject to financing condition. Termination fee $36M; reverse break fee $77M. NYSE delisting upon completion. All-cash take-private = mandatory close-out at closing. WSR component of small-cap REIT ETFs | index rebalancing at delisting. |
| 60 | BKH | NWE | NEW Apr 7. Black Hills and NorthWestern Energy all-stock merger. Both shareholder meetings approved Apr 2. NWE shareholders receive 0.98 BKH shares. Combined entity: Bright Horizon Energy Corporation (8 states). Close expected H2 2026 subject to HSR, FERC, MT/NE/SD state approvals. Monitor NWE for arb borrow demand as regulatory milestones approach. |
| 60 | LIEN | REFI | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Chicago Atlantic BDC Form 8-K / 425 and joint PR dated June 18, 2026 (agreement dated June 17). Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance (Nasdaq: REFI) will elect BDC status and merge with and into Chicago Atlantic BDC (Nasdaq: LIEN), the surviving public BDC trading as LIEN on Nasdaq. All-stock, adjusted-NAV-for-NAV exchange; former REFI holders expected to own ~50.5% based on March 31, 2026 NAVs (final ratio set just before close). LIEN board to evaluate a $25M post-close repurchase. Cannabis-finance niche names with low float and HTB characteristics: stock-for-stock arb is long REFI / short LIEN at the NAV-derived ratio; LIEN carries hedge-borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-REFI leg while REFI carries corporate-action recall pressure into close. Both ride through to LIEN shares. Close H2 2026 subject to both stockholder votes and the NAV determination. Track the joint proxy / N-14 and meeting dates. |
| 60 | PRIVATE | TWO | UPDATED Jun 15. The CrossCountry Mortgage (CCM) all-cash merger at $12.00 per share (plus pro-rated stub dividend) is proceeding following the June 11 special-meeting process; the prior UWMC competing-bid agreement was terminated by the board. CCM has obtained 46 of 53 required state and agency regulatory approvals plus HSR early termination, positioning the deal to close around August 2026. Preferred Series A/B/C redeem at $25.00 plus accrued at closing; flag for borrow-pool extinguishment. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING; CCM is private, so there is no acquirer short leg. The contested dynamic has resolved; reclassified back to MANDATORY. Begin recall coordination against the August close window; confirm the final vote tally and remaining state approvals in the SC 14A / 8-K stream. |
| 60 | KKR | FSK | UPDATED Jun 15. The KKR-affiliate cash tender for up to $150M FSK shares at $11.00 expired on or about June 9, 2026. Awaiting final results, proration if oversubscribed, and execution of the authorized $300M post-tender buyback; the $150M convertible perpetual preferred was issued to KKR. Tender plus buyback retires public float and contracts lendable supply, supportive of borrow scarcity over the coming weeks. KKR-affiliate involvement carries related-party scrutiny. Confirm settlement of any open FSK loans; monitor the SC TO-I/TO-T final results and buyback execution 8-K. Float contraction supportive of utilization in FSK. |
| 58 | ACLS | VECO | Both shareholder votes approved 2/6. China SAMR is ONLY remaining condition. Pure regulatory binary. SAMR timeline unpredictable given US semiconductor geopolitics. |
| 58 | CTAS | UNF | UPDATED Jun 15. Verified vs UniFirst 8-K and GlobeNewswire release. UNF shareholders approved the Cintas merger on June 11, 2026 (over 99% of votes cast; ~95% of shares); consideration $155.00 cash + 0.7720 CTAS per UNF share. On June 11 the FTC issued a Second Request under HSR, extending the antitrust waiting period until 30 days after substantial compliance; closing still expected H2 2026. The arb is long UNF / short CTAS at the proration-adjusted ratio: CTAS carries hedge-borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-UNF leg while UNF carries the corporate-action recall pressure into close. The vote is done; the binary now is the FTC second-request review. Keep UNF on the Hot List; track the second-request timeline as the recall trigger. |
| 58 | HOS | HLX | All-stock MoE announced Apr 23 (8-K filed Apr 24). Each HOS share converts into 10.27167 HLX shares (fixed). Post-close: HOS shareholders ~55%, HLX ~45% fully diluted. Combined entity continues as Hornbeck Offshore Services on NYSE under HOS ticker; Helix brand retained for Well Intervention Services. Synergies $75M+ targeted within 3 years; tax-free to both. Ares Management funds delivered written consent covering substantial HOS holding | HLX vote is principal gating item. Classic merger arb setup: long HOS / short HLX at 10.27167:1. Add HLX to Hot List for HARDER rebate dynamics; HOS may also firm. |
| 58 | RIG | VAL | 15.235x ratio = massive RIG short demand. Dual shareholder votes (Bermuda scheme). 73-rig combined fleet, ~$10B backlog. RIG borrow expected to escalate. Bermuda court hearings are additional procedural steps. |
| 58 | WFRD | NCSM | NEW Jun 8. Verified against the Weatherford/NCS Multistage joint press release and NCSM Form 8-K (Item 8.01) dated June 1, 2026. Weatherford agreed to acquire NCS Multistage; NCSM stockholders elect Weatherford common stock or a combination of stock and cash, blended to the equivalent of 0.463 WFRD shares per NCSM share with up to 19.99% payable in cash. Expected close H2 2026 subject to regulatory approvals; Weatherford intends to file a Form S-4. Classic merger-arb borrow: long NCSM / short WFRD as the hedge leg. WFRD borrow demand comes from arbs hedging the long-NCSM leg; monitor election mechanics, the 19.99% cash cap and proration, and short-base growth. Confirm final exchange-ratio mechanics and the meeting date against the S-4 when filed. |
| 58 | P/E | ALEX | Shareholder vote held Mar 9. $21.20 all-cash take-private. HARD RECALL in effect | all ALEX loans must be recalled now. Confirm closing timeline. Alexander & Baldwin real estate (Maui land/commercial). Post-close: CUSIP deactivation. Move to Closed & Removed upon confirmed close. |
| 58 | DSX | GNK | UPDATED Jun 29. Verified vs Diana Shipping SC TO-T/A and Form 425 (Jun 29, 2026). Diana Shipping (NYSE: DSX), through 4 Dragon Merger Sub, extended its unsolicited all-cash tender for Genco at $24.80 per share to July 10, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. NY time; 10,583,484 shares (~28.4% of the shares not owned by Diana) were tendered as of June 26. Diana owns ~14.4% of GNK. The tender remains ALL-CASH $24.80 (no acquirer short leg). Separately, Diana’s board-level proposal of $27.34 per share (comprised of $24.80 cash plus one Diana share valued at $2.54 on a 30-day VWAP as of June 16) remains on the table as a standing offer, but it is not the live tender, so the tender is not a mixed cash/stock deal. Hostile-bid volatility: elevated GNK borrow demand / short interest tied to offer-success probability; cross-holder dynamics. Roll the lending-agent calendar to the July 10 expiry; track further SC TO-T/A amendments and any move to a negotiated mixed-consideration deal. |
| 58 | FOREIGN | TBRG | UPGRADED FROM REPORTED → DEFINITIVE Apr 23, 2026: Inventurus Knowledge Solutions (IKS Health, NSE: IKS) via U.S. subsidiary acquires TBRG at $26.25/share all-cash, ~$557M EV. Voting agreements cover ~27% of TBRG shares (board-approved). Close Q3 2026 subject to TBRG vote + HSR. Financing: term loan from Citi, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Begin winding down TBRG loans. No merger-arb setup (acquirer is subsidiary of Indian-listed parent | no U.S. equity to short). Cross-border HSR may delay timeline. Small-cap healthcare IT name; existing borrow may be limited. |
| 58 | LPRO | LPRO | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Open Lending Form 8-K and ANV SC TO-C dated June 16, 2026 (merger agreement dated June 15). ANV Group Holdings Ltd. (private UK insurance intermediary) will acquire Open Lending via an all-cash tender offer at $3.15 per share, a ~78% premium to the 90-day VWAP, followed by a second-step merger; LPRO then delists from Nasdaq. Tender launch expected mid-summer 2026; close expected Q3 2026 subject to a majority-tender condition and regulatory approvals; key holders (~12.8%) supportive. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING; the borrow-relevant name is the target, LPRO. ANV is private, so there is no acquirer short leg. Small-cap auto-lending fintech. Begin LPRO recall coordination against tender commencement; track the Schedule TO and 14D-9. |
| 58 | UHS | TALK | NEW Mar 11. UHS acquiring Talkspace at $5.25/share all-cash. Close Q3 2026 pending TALK shareholder vote. Monitor Schedule 14A filing. TALK on Hot List. |
| 58 | P/E | CZR | NEW. Fertitta Entertainment to acquire Caesars at $31.00/share all-cash; ~$17.6B EV incl. ~$11.9B debt. Go-shop period active; CZR delists after completion. All-cash = mandatory recall at closing. Major cash-takeout borrow event: monitor merger-arb shorting, locate demand, and go-shop optionality. Acquirer private; no short-hedge leg. Verify against the definitive 8-K. |
| 57 | GSK | NUVL | UPDATED Jun 29. Verified against the Nuvalent 8-K, GSK SC TO-T / 6-K (Jun 24, 2026), and the June 9 merger agreement. GSK commenced its tender offer on June 24, 2026 (via Harmony Row Acquisition Co.) to acquire all Nuvalent Class A and Class B shares at $124.00 per share cash, expiring July 14, 2026 unless extended, ~$10.6B equity ($9.4B net of cash), a 40% premium; structured as a tender followed by a Delaware 251(h) back-end merger. Conditions: majority tender of Class A, HSR clearance, no financing contingency; $350.475M termination fee; outside date December 9, 2026; close expected Q3 2026. Tender and Support Agreements (Deerfield affiliates, directors/officers) cover about 28% of Class A. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING; the borrow-relevant name is the target, NUVL. The fixed-price all-cash tender collapses the directional short thesis and compresses target borrow, but the tender and 251(h) settlement create a recall window to coordinate. Residual volatility events inside deal pendency: FDA PDUFA dates for zidesamtinib (ROS1) Sep 18, 2026 and neladalkib (ALK) Nov 27, 2026. Dual-class structure means Class B (insider/founder) shares are in the tender, relevant to float and recall. Tender is now LIVE: NUVL recall coordination should be underway against the July 14 expiry; track the Schedule TO/14D-9 and any extension. |
| 56 | RUMORED | BF.B | NEW Apr 16. REPORTED competing acquisition approaches for Brown-Forman. WSJ, Bloomberg, Reuters report Sazerac made formal ~$15B bid (~$32/share) on April 15. Sazerac competing with Pernod Ricard, which has been in CONFIRMED merger-of-equals discussions with Brown-Forman since late March 2026. BF.B shares up ~25% since Pernod talks became public. Brown family controls majority of voting shares, historically making BF.B difficult acquisition target. Market cap ~$13.5B pre-bid. S&P 500 constituent (BF.B). If definitive agreement reached and BF.B delisted, removal from S&P 500 and related indices (SPY, IVV, VOO, RSP, XLP) would trigger index rebalancing. NO DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT; all lending implications remain hypothetical pending agreement. If Sazerac (all-cash) prevails: mandatory close-out at closing. If Pernod Ricard (stock-for-stock) prevails: arb short demand in acquirer. Monitor for SEC filing before treating as confirmed. |
| 56 | PSA | NSA | NEW Mar 20. 0.14 PSA shares per NSA share (~35% premium). ~$57B pro forma equity mkt cap. JV of 313 NSA properties. Termination fee ~$202M. Rule 425 confirms accelerated vesting of NSA restricted shares/LTIP units. NSA on Watchlist. |
| 56 | BSX | PEN | UPDATED Jun 15 (verified vs BSX 8-K, 424B3, S-4/A). Mixed CASH/STOCK merger: Boston Scientific acquires Penumbra at $374.00 per PEN share; holders elect $374.00 cash OR 3.8721 BSX shares, subject to proration to about 73.26% cash / 26.74% stock (~$14.5B EV). PEN shareholder vote APPROVED May 6, 2026; the HSR waiting period expired March 16, 2026. The sole remaining material gate is EU competition clearance (pending referral at the parties' request); other non-US jurisdictions also pending. A $900M reverse termination fee applies in specified antitrust-failure scenarios. Because a stock component exists, the arb is long PEN / short BSX at the proration-adjusted ratio: BSX carries arb hedge-borrow demand, PEN carries the corporate-action recall pressure. The cash-elected portion is a mandatory-recall event on close; the stock-elected portion converts to BSX at 3.8721 and rides through, so this is NOT a no-ride-through, all-cash close. Expected close H2 2026; track the EU clearance and CUSIP retirement. |
| 56 | KMB | KVUE | SHAREHOLDER VOTES APPROVED Jan 29, 2026 (~99% KVUE, ~96% KMB). POST-CLOSING ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE DISCLOSED April 15, 2026: four geographic segments, North America anchors at ~$18B annual sales, Integration Management Office with 30+ workstreams under CEO Mike Hsu. Pending FTC second-request antitrust review. KMB acquires all KVUE shares for $3.50 cash + 0.14625 KMB per KVUE share. KMB shareholders ~54% / KVUE holders ~46% post-close. Close anticipated H2 2026. Stock component creates classic merger arb: long KVUE / short KMB | expect sustained KMB borrow demand. KVUE removal from S&P 500 and consumer-staples ETFs (XLP, IYK) upon closing drives large passive outflows and basket reconstitution. Monitor FTC clearance as recall trigger. |
| 56 | MoE | GETY | UPDATED Jun 8 (correction). DOJ cleared unconditionally Feb 23. The UK CMA issued its Phase 2 FINAL REPORT on May 15, 2026, ahead of the statutory deadline, and CONDITIONALLY CLEARED the merger. The June 14 date previously carried was the old deadline, not an event; the regulatory binary has resolved. Clearance is conditioned on divestment of Shutterstock's global editorial business to a CMA-approved purchaser (the narrower Backgrid/Splash paparazzi-only offer was found insufficient). This moves from pending-binary to cleared with a path to an H2 close. Stock-leg arb borrow demand on the Getty acquirer line continues until close; the remaining gating items are the editorial-business divestiture to an approved buyer and customary closing conditions. Monitor the divestiture-buyer approval and the closing timeline rather than the (now-passed) CMA decision date. |
| 56 | P/E | AES | UPDATED Apr 9. Consortium: GIP (BlackRock), EQT Infrastructure VI, CalPERS, Qatar Investment Authority. 100% equity-financed; no financing contingency. $15.00/share all-cash (40.3% prem to 30-day VWAP). DEF 14A filed Mar 20. Close late 2026/early 2027 subject to FERC, state PUCs, CFIUS. AES is current S&P 500 constituent | removal upon delisting forces index fund rebalancing. Held in XLU, ICLN, QCLN. Stock dropped 17% on announcement reflecting \$15 price skepticism. Regulatory complexity across multiple jurisdictions creates genuine deal-break risk. Political opposition in Indiana. All-cash take-private = mandatory close-out. UPGRADE TO HIGH. |
| 56 | PRIVATE | HIMS | $240M cash at close + ~$710M deferred (18 mo.) + up to $200M earnouts. Up to 60% of deferred/earnouts in HIMS Class A shares | rolling dilution schedule. Monitor deferred payment windows for secondary offering risk. |
| 55 | P/E | EA | HSR WAITING PERIOD EXPIRED February 9, 2026. Go-shop closed Feb with no competing bid. PIF + Silver Lake + Affinity Partners consortium. Shareholder vote approved. EA targeting close April-June 2026 (Q1 of EA FY ending Mar 31, 2027). EA shares will be delisted from Nasdaq upon closing. $210/share all-cash (~$55B EV). All-cash take-private = mandatory recall at closing and delisting. Begin winding down EA loan positions | closing window ACTIVE (imminent). Availability may tighten. |
| 55 | IPO | LCLN | Lincoln International filed S-1 Apr 24 for proposed NYSE IPO under ticker LCLN. Mid-market investment bank (~$784M 2025 revenue, ~$214M net income). Standard IPO with new shares + typical 180-day insider/pre-IPO lockups. New public float creation; lendable supply broadens at listing (limited initial supply) and again at lockup expiration. Add to IPO pipeline watch. |
| 55 | ISSUER | AEIS | NEW May 18. Advanced Energy Industries announced $1.0B convertible note offering on May 13, 2026. Same category as ORA's $1.0B convert (already tracked). Delta-hedge borrow demand on pricing and settlement. Monitor initial purchaser hedge mechanics and capped-call overlay if applicable. SQUEEZE candidate per Trader Tier framework. Track terms, pricing date, and settlement timeline; flag any HARDER rebate regime emergence. |
| 55 | ISSUER | AMKR | Convertible note offering settled May 5, 2026 (~$1.0B base + $150M option). Convert-arb community now establishing delta-hedge short positions; borrow demand in AMKR materializes over the days/weeks following settlement. Monitor utilization and HTB/SPECIAL rate trajectory. Standing watch on common-stock borrow as conversion delta is hedged into underlying shorts. |
| 55 | ISSUER | AVAV | First tranche of ~6.97M shares released May 1, 2026 (40% of acquisition-related lock-up). Remaining tranches scheduled per merger agreement terms; next tranche date pending confirmation. Monitor Form 4 filings and any block-trade activity from released holders. Borrow demand may firm if released holders signal selling. Standing watch on float expansion and any HTB rate response. |
| 55 | ISSUER | ORA | Ormat Technologies $1.0B convertible note financing closed March 23 (with full option exercise). Series A: $725M 1.50% due 2031; Series B: $150M 0.00% due 2031. Expect incremental delta-hedge short demand in ORA equity from convert-arb desks. Monitor utilization and rebate rates for rate tightening. |
| 55 | ISSUER | SHAZ | Sharon AI announced $350M convertible note offering. Low-float name. Convertible issuance creates stock-borrow demand from convertible-arb hedging (delta hedge of long-convert / short-stock). Confirm conversion price, capped-call or hedge terms, borrow availability, and settlement timing. Likely HARDER rebate dynamics on SHAZ once arbs deploy hedges. |
| 54 | AMZN | GSAT | NEW Apr 14. Amazon-Globalstar definitive merger agreement dated April 13, announced April 14. Each GSAT share exchanges at shareholder election for $90.00 cash OR 0.3210 AMZN shares (stock consideration value capped at $90.00). Thermo Funding II controls >57% voting power and has delivered written consent supporting the transaction | effectively bypasses standalone shareholder vote. ~117% premium to unaffected price. Concurrent agreement with Apple: Amazon Leo will power satellite services for iPhone/Apple Watch (Apple previously held ~20% stake in Globalstar). Infrastructure prepayment amended by +$468M to ~$1.58B aggregate. Outside date April 13, 2027 with extensions to Oct 13, 2027 and Apr 13, 2028. Termination fees: GSAT→AMZN ~$419.8M (alternative-transaction scenarios); AMZN→GSAT ~$592.1M (failure of required regulatory clearances). GSAT is likely a Russell 2000/3000 constituent | removal at close triggers ETF rebalancing across IWM, VTWO, etc. Cash election pathway functions as de facto all-cash for electing holders (shares tendered for cash do not ride through); stock election drives AMZN hedge short demand. Monitor election mix as deal progresses. Extended regulatory timeline (FCC + international) means arb window runs through 2027. Desk view: build position for long-dated cash-or-stock merger-arb situation. |
| 54 | UNP | NSC | UPDATED Jun 8 (correction). $85B stock-and-cash rail combination ($50.00 cash + 0.8500 UNP per NSC share). The June 22 full-application date previously carried is no longer operative: UP and NS filed a revised application Apr 30, and on May 28, 2026 the STB accepted it for consideration, placed the proceedings (including environmental review) in abeyance, and ordered applicants to submit supplemental information by July 27, 2026. The next real milestone is the July 27 supplemental-information deadline; the Board will set a procedural schedule in a future decision, so the merits review and close are long-dated. The arb is long NSC / short UNP at the cash-plus-stock ratio, so UNP draws borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-NSC leg while the extended regulatory duration keeps the spread wide. Track the STB FD 36873 docket for the supplemental filing and the subsequent procedural schedule. |
| 54 | FOXA | ROKU | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Fox Corporation Form 8-K and PR Newswire release dated June 15, 2026. FOX acquires Roku at $160.00 per ROKU share: $96.00 cash plus 0.9693 FOX Class A shares for each Roku Class A and Class B share (stock leg valued at $64.00 on a $66.03 10-day VWAP reference), about 60% cash / 40% stock, ~$25B equity / ~$22B EV. Post-close ownership ~73% FOX / ~27% Roku; FOX issues ~152M Class A shares and carries a $12B bridge commitment. Close expected 1H CY2027 subject to ROKU shareholder vote and regulatory approval; S-4 / proxy pending. Because a stock component exists, the arb is long ROKU / short FOXA at the fixed mix: FOXA carries the hedge-borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-ROKU leg, while ROKU carries the corporate-action recall pressure. The cash portion is a mandatory-recall event at close; the stock portion converts to FOXA at 0.9693 and rides through, so this is not a no-ride-through, all-cash close. Long pendency keeps the merger-arb borrow on FOXA live; add FOXA to the borrow watchlist and track the S-4 and meeting date. |
| 54 | INGR | TATE | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Ingredion Form 8-K (CIK 0001046257) and GlobeNewswire release dated June 8, 2026. Ingredion announced a recommended all-cash acquisition of UK-listed Tate & Lyle (LSE: TATE) at 595 pence per share, ~GBP 2.7B (~$3.6B) equity and ~GBP 3.7B (~$5.0B) EV, a 59% premium, implemented via a UK court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement (Ingredion reserved the right to switch to a takeover offer). The firm offer landed ahead of the June 11 UK PUSU deadline. Irrevocable undertaking from Huber Equity Corporation covers ~16.8% of Tate & Lyle shares; financed via cash, new debt, and a $4.225B committed bridge. The borrow-relevant security is the US acquirer, INGR; Tate & Lyle trades on the LSE and settles under UK takeover-code mechanics, not US recall/lockup logic. Permitted deal dividends (up to 13.2p final + 6.8p interim) are carve-outs, not standalone declarations. Close targeted H2 2027, a long pendency that keeps merger-arb borrow on INGR live for an extended period. Acquirer-side watch. |
| 54 | PEBO | CZNL | NEW Apr 22. Peoples Bancorp Inc. 8-K Item 8.01 filed Apr 21 disclosing Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 20 with Citizens National Corporation (OTCPK: CZNL), parent of Citizens Bank of Kentucky (12 KY branches). Cash-and-stock merger combining Citizens into Peoples and Citizens Bank of Kentucky into Peoples Bank. Specific per-share consideration, aggregate deal value, and proration mechanics NOT detailed in the 8-K body text | operative disclosures in Merger News Release Exhibit 99.4 and the merger agreement (pending filing). CZNL is OTCPK-listed small community bank | borrow is minimal and not a lending-desk focus. PEBO may see modest index-driven demand depending on pro-forma market cap. Stock portion (subject to any exchange ratio) permits ride-through to PEBO shares; cash election portion triggers mandatory recall at closing. Election mechanics (proration, caps) govern effective recall volume | not ascertainable until exhibit review. Pull Exhibit 99.4 and merger agreement for exact terms and expected closing date. |
| 54 | ISSUER | IONETIX | NEW Apr 22. Ionetix Corporation announced Apr 21 closing of private placement raising >$30M at $3.00/share, plus intent to file resale registration statement on Form S-1 to become publicly tradable on OTCQB. Issuer currently private. Post-effectiveness of resale S-1, PIPE shares become freely tradable alongside OTCQB listing. PIPE investors frequently short newly-unlocked stock to lock in $3.00 cost basis | concentrated directional borrow demand at or shortly after listing effectiveness. S-1 filing and SEC effectiveness timing not yet disclosed. OTCQB issuer lender inventory is typically thin | post-effectiveness demand can be abrupt. Per desk-note verification disclaimer: NO SEC filing exists yet; PIPE size, pricing, and S-1 intent sourced from company press release, not yet independently validated. Monitor EDGAR for S-1 filing and amendments. |
| 54 | ISSUER | ONDS | NEW Apr 17. Ondas Holdings filed Form 8-K and prospectus supplement April 17 registering for resale 2,328,342 shares of common stock issued in connection with prior acquisition of World View Enterprises, Inc. (via Wassaic Merger Sub Inc.). Sellers: pre-merger World View stockholders who received ONDS consideration. Incremental public float becomes sellable once registration goes effective; small-cap name subject to distribution overhang. Registered secondary sales can front-run utilization and NFE spread on small-caps. Monitor ONDS utilization and NFE spread for overhang pressure; update lendable inventory post-effectiveness. |
| 54 | ISSUER | SPIR | Spire Global filed Form S-1 Apr 23 registering resale of 5,000,000 Class A common shares from ~$70M PIPE closed ~Apr 10 at $14.00/share. Effectiveness typically 30-60 days post-filing. Upon effectiveness, 5M shares become tradable in public market | direct float expansion. Borrow supply on SPIR broadens at effectiveness; rebates likely EASIER at that point. No immediate action; monitor SEC EDGAR for effectiveness notice and pre-position rate surveillance. |
| 54 | OWL | SILA | NEW Apr 23 (covering Apr 20 announcement). Sila Realty Trust definitive merger agreement April 20, 2026 with Blue Owl Real Estate Capital LLC affiliates. $30.38/share all-cash; total ~$2.4B. Premium: 19.0% to April 17 close; 25.6% to 30-day VWAP. SILA portfolio: 137 healthcare properties, ~5.3M sq ft, ~98% leased. Expected close Q2-Q3 2026 subject to SILA shareholder approval. Sila continues Q1 and Q2 quarterly dividends and will file 10-Q but has CANCELLED quarterly earnings calls. Upon closing, SILA delists from NYSE and becomes private. SILA is a constituent of healthcare-REIT and small-cap REIT index baskets | closing-driven removal would trigger index-fund rebalance flows (specific basket-level impact and replacement timing depend on index providers' rules; not established in advance). ALL-CASH TAKE-PRIVATE = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING | no ride-through. Add SILA to M&A recall ladder tied to shareholder vote date. Flag REIT-basket impact for passive funds. Close out at closing. |
| 54 | BRC | HON | NEW Apr 21. Brady Corporation definitive agreement (Apr 20) to acquire Honeywell's Productivity Solutions and Services (PSS) business for $1.4B all-cash. PSS: ~$1.1B 2025 revenue, ~3,000 employees globally; transaction value ~8x 2025 EBITDA. Brady funding: cash on hand + new debt; targets pro-forma net debt/EBITDA ~2.5x at close, below 2.0x within two years. Both boards unanimously approved. Close expected H2 2026 subject to regulatory approvals. This is an ASSET SALE, NOT a stock transaction | no ride-through implication for HON equity; no mandatory recall on either side. Continues HON portfolio simplification following 2024 PPE sale and Oct 2025 Solstice Advanced Materials (SOLS) spin-off, and precedes planned Q3 2026 Honeywell Aerospace spin-off. Primary desk attention belongs on the HON Aerospace spin-off calendar. Add BRC to primary-issuance watchlist pending debt financing disclosure. |
| 54 | BRK.B | TMHC | NEW May 31. Berkshire Hathaway agreed to acquire Taylor Morrison Home at $72.50/share cash; ~$6.8B equity / ~$8.5B EV. All-cash homebuilder takeout = mandatory recall at closing. Monitor TMHC borrow for merger-arb demand and housing-sector relative-value; BRK.B acquirer-side, no short-hedge leg. Verify per definitive 8-K/proxy on EDGAR. |
| 54 | FOREIGN | BKR | NEW Apr 20. Baker Hughes agreed April 13 to sell Waygate Technologies business | non-destructive testing unit in IET segment (remote visual inspection, ultrasound, radiography, imaging; ~1,500 employees, 25 locations, HQ Hürth, Germany) | to Hexagon AB (STO: HEXA-B) for ~$1.45B all-cash (before customary closing adjustments). Waygate FY25 financials: ~$630M revenue at ~10% EBIT margin. Use of proceeds: balance sheet reinforcement; consistent with broader IET portfolio rebalancing alongside pending GTLS Chart Industries acquisition (~$13.6B | see separate row). Continuation of BKR IET segment pruning. No share issuance or repurchase component | NO DIRECT FLOAT IMPACT ON BKR. Expected close H2 2026, subject to regulatory approvals. Short theses on BKR's IET segment may reprice as portfolio mix shifts toward Chart. Monitor BKR borrow and NFE spread for thesis repricing; no recall action required. |
| 54 | FOREIGN | OLPX | DEFINITIVE INFO STATEMENT (DEFM14C) filed and mailed May 4, 2026 for cash merger / take-private by Henkel US Operations Corp. (agreement dated Mar 26, 2026; ~$1.4B equity value). Cash deal; stockholders receive fixed cash per share. Take-private cash merger typically leads to delisting post-close; shorts must cover; no ongoing equity float. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Begin recall preparation; awaiting closing 8-K and Form 25 delisting notice. |
| 54 | ISSUER | MGA | NEW Apr 13. Magna International divesting Lighting and Rooftop Systems across three transactions to PE buyers. ~$1.1B combined 2025 sales. Close H2 2026. No EPS impact per Magna. Portfolio simplification | watch for index weight recalibration. MGA is XLI/VIS/CARZ component. Not a mandatory recall event. |
| 54 | ONTO | ONTO | NEW Apr 22. Onto Innovation Share Purchase Agreement (Apr 21 Tokyo time) to acquire 61,123,436 common shares of Rigaku Holdings Corporation (TSE: 268A) | ~27% of Rigaku outstanding as of Mar 31, 2026 | from Atom Investments, L.P. (Carlyle Group affiliate). All-cash, funded from ONTO balance sheet; NO new ONTO share issuance, NO dilution. Management expects accretion by year-end 2026; supports strategic semiconductor metrology collaboration framework. Governance: one Rigaku board nomination right; fair-value accounting (no consolidation). USD/JPY movement affects closing consideration economics. Expected close H2 2026 subject to HSR and other regulatory approvals. NO MANDATORY RECALL on ONTO; Rigaku (TSE: 268A) is not a US lending-market item. Per the desk-note verification disclaimer, specific share count, consideration figure, governance rights, and accounting treatment require independent validation against 8-K exhibits and the Share Purchase Agreement. Monitor ONTO for regulatory-approval progression and any unusual hedge-positioning borrow demand through H2 2026 close. |
| 54 | P/E | EEX | NEW May 18. Apollo all-cash take-private of Emerald Holding (EEX) at $5.03/share (~$350M equity / ~$1.5B EV). Definitive agreement and 8-K filed May 11, 2026. Onex Corporation, holding greater than 90 percent of voting power, executed written consent immediately upon signing; no shareholder vote required. Expected close H2 2026 subject to customary regulatory clearances. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Small-float take-private with written-consent close pattern means standard 20-day notice period to dissenting shareholders applies. Borrow pool will extinguish on close; recall coordination should begin against expected H2 close window. Below the $1B equity threshold but $1.5B EV warrants tracking; included per master list curation standard for definitive agreements with material EV. |
| 54 | PH | CIR | NEW. Parker Hannifin to acquire the CIRCOR commercial and defense aerospace business for ~$2.55B. Acquirer-side; PH aerospace exposure and financing relevant to relative-value shorts. No mandatory recall; monitor PH borrow. Verify per definitive agreement on EDGAR. |
| 54 | ISSUER | SCHL | Issuer self-tender (modified Dutch auction) expired Apr 20, 2026. Preliminary results posted; final clearing price and proration factor pending. Once disclosed, repurchased shares retire from float | lendable supply contracts on retired portion. Monitor for final 8-K with definitive results. No new recall trigger until pricing confirmed. |
| 54 | MGMT | FORA | ROLLED FORWARD May 18. Forian all-cash third-party tender by Bravo Merger Sub (subsidiary of 2025 Acquisition Company, LLC; management-led consortium led by Forian CEO and senior executives) expired at 11:59 p.m. ET May 14, 2026. Awaiting final results, second-step merger filing, and delisting confirmation. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Confirm settlement of any remaining open loans; flag for borrow-pool extinguishment on close. |
| 53 | SPINOFF | ABF | NEW Apr 22. Associated British Foods (LSE: ABF) confirmed Apr 21 that Board approved dividend demerger of Primark retail business from food business ("FoodCo"). On completion, ABF shareholders hold shares in both entities. Both post-demerger entities expected to seek FTSE 100 inclusion (subject to FTSE Russell review; depends on free float, market cap, liquidity at effective date). FoodCo retains Associated British Foods plc name; Wittington Investments (majority shareholder) maintains majority ownership of both. Target effective date: BEFORE END OF CALENDAR 2027, subject to approvals and tax clearances. Advisors: Rothschild & Co (lead), Barclays, UBS. Both entities expected on LSE Equity Shares (Commercial Companies) category. ABF US ADR holders and ETF baskets holding ABF (multiple UK/European large-cap and FTSE 100 index products) face a 2027 basket disturbance. FTSE 100 index sleeves will account for replacement of one constituent with two. Timing is 2026-2027 | no immediate lending-desk action. |
| 53 | IPO | SPCX | UPDATED Jun 15. Verified vs SpaceX S-1/A and June 11 pricing terms. SpaceX priced at a fixed $135.00 on June 11 and began Nasdaq trading under SPCX on June 12, 2026, closing its first session near $161 (up ~19%); ~$75B raised on 555.6M new shares at a ~$1.77T valuation, the largest IPO on record, with an 83.3M-share greenshoe. The borrow story is now the tiered, non-standard lockup ladder rather than the listing: an early-release tranche of up to ~20% (some provisions toward 30%) after the first earnings report (expected late July/August), additional rolling unlocks through Q4, a full 180-day expiration around December 2026, and Elon Musk plus select major holders locked until ~June 2027. Minimal lendable float at issuance means hot/special borrow with high rerate potential now, easing as each tranche converts locked stock to lendable supply. The August earnings-triggered release and the December cliff are the two structural inflection points. Textbook T-Series staggered-supply case; forward-calendar the tranches on the IPO Lockup Monitor. |
| 52 | OLN | HUN | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Olin Form 8-K / Form 425 and the joint PR Newswire release dated June 16, 2026 (agreement dated June 15). All-stock merger of equals: Huntsman holders receive 0.5476 Olin shares per HUN share, an at-the-market ratio struck on trailing 30-day VWAPs as of June 12. Combined company renamed OlinHuntsman Corporation (NYSE), ~$12.5B pro forma 2025 revenue, more than $400M cost synergies plus ~$125M cash tax benefits; Olin holders own ~54.5% and Huntsman holders ~45.5% post-close. Ken Lane CEO; Peter Huntsman non-executive chair; HQ The Woodlands, TX. Boards unanimous; close expected 1H 2027 subject to both shareholder votes and regulatory approvals; S-4 joint proxy in preparation. Classic stock-for-stock arb: long HUN / short OLN at 0.5476. OLN carries the hedge-borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-HUN leg while HUN carries corporate-action recall pressure into close. Both names ride through to OLN shares; no cash leg. Add OLN to the borrow watchlist; track the S-4 and meeting dates. |
| 52 | DESPAC | LOKV | S-4 confidentially submitted 12/18/25; public filing expected late March. Close target Q2 2026 (Apr/May). $126M PIPE anchored by T. Rowe Price. Redemption deadline triggers hard recall | watch for proxy mailing. Post-close tickers: TMS (shares) / TMSW (warrants). |
| 52 | ENVA | GRASS | Small fintech acquisition. Extended timeline. Minimal near-term action. |
| 51 | SUNE | Suniva | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the SUNation Energy Form 8-K (Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 5, 2026). SUNation Energy (Nasdaq: SUNE) signed a reverse-merger agreement with private U.S. solar-cell maker Suniva, creating a Nasdaq-listed domestic solar manufacturing and services platform under the Suniva name on SUNE's existing ticker. Pre-merger Suniva holders are expected to own ~98.2% of the combined company and pre-merger SUNation holders ~1.8% (subject to adjustment for SUNation net cash), implying ~$2.26 per SUNE share (~100% premium). Close targeted H2 2026, subject to stockholder approvals, SEC effectiveness of a Form S-4, and Nasdaq listing approval; $1M reciprocal termination fee. A reverse merger of this magnitude is a float-reset and supply-shock event on SUNE: the new-share issuance and possible reverse split massively dilute the legacy float, lendable supply and CUSIP terms reset at close, and borrow can swing sharply around the S-4 effectiveness and listing. Squeeze-watch the legacy SUNE float into the vote; track the S-4 and Nasdaq clearance. |
| 50 | MoE | LCII | NEW Apr 17. LCI Industries (LCII) and Patrick Industries (PATK) confirmed via near-identical 8-Ks April 17 after market close that they are IN DISCUSSIONS regarding a potential merger of equals. 8-K language: no assurance any transaction will result from discussions or on what terms. Bloomberg separately reported structure is ALL-STOCK | MEDIA-REPORTED ONLY; NOT CONFIRMED IN COMPANY FILINGS. Both companies HQ in Elkhart, Indiana. End-market overlap: RV, marine, powersports, housing (PATK); outdoor recreation and transportation (LCII via Lippert). Market context Apr 17 close: PATK $106.93, market cap ~$3.54B; LCII market cap ~$3.0B; combined equity ~$6.5B. Both companies state they do not intend to comment further unless formal agreement reached or discussions terminate. Two positioning paths to pre-model (scenario framing, not prediction): (a) if definitive all-stock agreement filed at fixed exchange ratio, standard merger-arb setups emerge on both names; (b) if discussions terminate, both revert to pre-announcement fundamental exposure. VERIFY against definitive merger agreement when filed before treating structure as confirmed. No recall action until definitive agreement filed. Add LCII and PATK to M&A watchlist; monitor borrow rate and NFE spread for arb-positioning inflows. |
| 50 | DESPAC | IPFX | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. VI Form 8-K and Form 425 dated June 8, 2026. Quantum Space (cislunar / maneuverable-spacecraft developer, CEO Jim Bridenstine) will go public via business combination with IPFX: $600M pre-money, ~$1.2B post-transaction equity assuming no redemptions, ~$253M in trust plus a $300M convertible PIPE at $12.00; expected to trade Nasdaq as QSPC, close Q4 2026 subject to IPFX shareholder vote. Capital stack is preferred-heavy ($50M Series B pre-funded PIPE; $250M Series A cumulative convertible preferred, 10-12% cash/PIK, senior, full-ratchet anti-dilution to a $7.00 floor), prioritizing preferred over common. De-SPAC borrow event: monitor IPFX redemptions ahead of the vote (thin post-close float on heavy redemptions), warrant activity, the convertible-PIPE delta-hedge demand, and abrupt post-close borrow tightness on QSPC. Forward-calendar on the SPAC / De-SPAC Monitor. |
| 50 | DESPAC | SVAQ | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Silicon Valley Acquisition Corp. Form 8-K / 425 dated June 17, 2026. EigenQ Inc. (quantum security / post-quantum technology) will go public via business combination with SVAQ at ~$3B pro forma EV; ~$215M in trust pre-redemptions plus a potential PIPE / private placement (conversion $12.00), ~$110M expected gross proceeds; expected to trade Nasdaq as EIGQ. Close Q4 2026 subject to SVAQ and EigenQ votes and Form S-4 effectiveness. De-SPAC borrow event: monitor SVAQ redemptions ahead of the vote (thin post-close float on heavy redemptions), warrant activity, PIPE delta-hedge demand, and abrupt post-close borrow tightness on EIGQ. Forward-calendar on the SPAC / De-SPAC Monitor. |
| 50 | DESPAC | GRAF | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Graf Global Corp. Form 8-K / 425 dated June 12, 2026. BIG3 HoldCo LLC (professional 3-on-3 basketball league, co-founders OShea Jackson (Ice Cube) and Jeff Kwatinetz) will go public via business combination with Graf Global Corp. (NYSE American: GRAF); BIG3 valued ~$290M pre-money before earnouts; combined company to be named Big3 Basketball Holdings, Inc., expected ticker TONT. Trust ~$249M as of June 10; closing conditioned on a $50M minimum net-cash threshold after redemptions and on a GRAF extension vote by June 27, 2026. Close expected Q4 2026. De-SPAC borrow event: monitor GRAF redemptions and the June 27 extension vote, warrant activity, and post-close borrow on the thin legacy float. Forward-calendar on the SPAC / De-SPAC Monitor. |
| 50 | PSKY | WBD | UPDATED May 18 (Est. Close revised to Q3 2026 per Paramount guidance). Vote held Apr 23; approved overwhelmingly. Paramount has guided expected close to Q3 2026 (previously Q2). Merger agreement includes a 25-cent quarterly ticking fee that activates if the deal has not closed by September 30, 2026. Remaining items: regulatory clearances across multiple jurisdictions. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Recall coordination continues against the revised Q3 close window; track ticking fee timeline. WBD shareholder vote held Apr 23 at 10:00 a.m. ET. ~$111B EV all-cash acquisition by Paramount Skydance (PSKY). Confirm vote outcome via DEF 14A vote results 8-K. Assuming approval, next gating items: remaining regulatory clearances + closing conditions. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Continue WBD loan inventory wind-down. Recall window remains open through close. Monitor for definitive close date announcement. |
| 50 | DHR | MASI | All-cash at $180/sh (~69% prem to unaffected). Requires MASI shareholder approval + regulatory clearances. H2 close. Monitor proxy filing for record date. |
| 50 | P/E | BHF | Shareholders approved 2/12. Multi-state insurance regulatory approvals only (~6-12 months). Model Q3-Q4 2026 recall window. |
| 50 | P/E | CCO | Mubadala/TWG Global take-private. Go-shop period ended Mar 26 with no superior proposals reported. Next gating items: shareholder vote + HSR clearance. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING. Monitor for preliminary proxy and vote scheduling. |
| 50 | PRIVATE | AMRX | Definitive agreement Apr 22 to acquire 100% of private Kashiv BioSciences (Piscataway, NJ; vertically-integrated U.S. biosimilar developer/manufacturer). Consideration: $375M cash + $375M AMRX equity (~28.9M Class A shares) at closing + up to $350M regulatory/commercial milestone payments and royalties. Close H2 2026 subject to AMRX shareholder vote + regulatory clearances. Private target | NO merger-arb setup. ~28.9M new Class A shares = material dilution to AMRX float. Incremental borrow supply on AMRX post-close as new shares settle and lending programs activate; short interest may build on dilution concerns, partially offsetting supply effect. Watch for EASIER rate dynamics on AMRX after close. AMRX concurrently raised FY2026 standalone guidance. |
| 50 | DESPAC | FGMC | UPDATED Jun 15. Verified vs the BOXABL/FGMC press release dated June 10 and the Form 425. FGMC and BOXABL stockholders approved the business combination at special meetings held June 9, 2026; the two-step merger leaves FGMC as the surviving public company, to be renamed BOXABL Inc. and relisted on Nasdaq as BXBL. Roughly 6.6M shares were tendered for redemption ahead of the June 5 deadline (~$68.8M out of trust; ~$14M and ~1.4M public shares remaining), so post-close float is thin. De-SPAC close/relisting is the open forward action: monitor closing timing, the CUSIP/ticker transition to BXBL, warrant activity, and abrupt post-close borrow tightness on the thin legacy float. |
| 50 | RUMORED | PZZA | Irth Capital (Qatari-backed) + Brookfield offer reported at $47/share (~44-50% prem). Irth stake ~10%. NO definitive 8-K, Schedule TO, or merger agreement filed. Prior Apollo bid (~$64/share) withdrawn Oct 2025. Monitor for definitive filing. Watch borrow rate for squeeze risk. |
| 49 | SPINOFF | CTVA | NEW Apr 15. Corteva tax-free spin-off advancing toward Q4 2026 separation. Three 8-Ks filed April 14, 2026 announcing executive leadership for both successor entities. 'New Corteva' | crop protection (~$7.8B revenue), led by Luke Kissam (former Albemarle CEO, joining June 1). 'SpinCo' | advanced seed and genetics (~$9.9B revenue, Pioneer brand), led by current CEO Chuck Magro. Investor Day scheduled September 15, 2026 at NYSE. CTVA is S&P 500 constituent in XLB (Materials). Separation will require S&P to assign both successor entities | triggers rebalancing in SPY, XLB, broad-market funds. Full spin-off lifecycle awareness required: recall timing at record date, manufactured payment tax treatment (SpinCo distribution taxed as ordinary income for borrowers, not qualified dividend), DTC due-bill processing, CUSIP transition and reconciliation, fail risk. Both entities need CUSIP assignment. Q4 target still subject to board final approval, tax opinion, regulatory conditions; Corteva retains right to abandon separation. Monitor for Form 10 filing (SpinCo registration) and record date announcement | these are the operational triggers. |
| 49 | MoE | MKC | DEFINITIVE RMT agreement confirmed March 31. McCormick combining with Unilever Foods business (excl. India, Nepal, Portugal). $15.7B cash + $29.1B in MKC equity. Post-close: UL shareholders ~55.1%, UL retained 9.9%, MKC shareholders ~35%. Combined ~$20B revenue. Combined leverage ~4.0x; target 3.0x within 2 yrs. Advisors: Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, PwC (UL); Citi, Rothschild (MKC). RMT = complex settlement | UL spins Foods into new entity, then merges with MKC. Possible new CUSIP for combined co. Arb demand will build as proxy timeline crystallizes. Multi-jurisdiction regulatory clearance required. Works council consultation before closing. |
| 48 | MoE | CRBG | UPDATED May 18. Corebridge Financial and Equitable Holdings all-stock merger. Combined entity: $1.5T AUM/AUA, 12M+ customers. Merger agreement dated March 26, 2026. LEADERSHIP ANNOUNCED MAY 12: Costantini named CEO; Pearson named Executive Chair. Material progression disclosed via 8-K and Form 425 filings on May 12, 2026. S-4 in preparation; shareholder vote targeted Summer 2026; close YE 2026. Stock-leg arb borrow demand active until close; monitor for further governance disclosures and exchange ratio confirmation in the definitive proxy. |
| 48 | NEE | D | NEW May 18. NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy announced definitive all-stock merger via joint PR Newswire release. Dominion holders receive 0.8138 NEE share per D share. Pro forma ownership 74.5 percent NextEra / 25.5 percent Dominion. Combined entity would be the world's largest regulated electric utility business. Closing expected 12 to 18 months subject to shareholder votes (both companies), HSR antitrust clearance, FERC Section 203 approval, NRC license-transfer approval (Surry, North Anna nuclear units), and multi-state utility commission approvals (Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, others). Form S-4 joint proxy / prospectus in preparation. Stock-leg arb borrow demand expected to build into proxy distribution; long regulatory duration is core spread-risk driver. Monitor multi-state PUC dockets, FERC filings, and NRC license-transfer docket for milestone events. Major utility merger with deep S&P 500 index implications at close. |
| 48 | DESPAC | SPKL | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the Spark I Acquisition Corp. Form 8-K / 425 dated June 11, 2026. ZincFive, Inc. (nickel-zinc immediate-power batteries for data-center / AI infrastructure; ~$66.9M 2025 revenue) will go public via business combination with Spark I (Nasdaq: SPKL), $600M pre-money equity value and ~$752M pro forma EV; expected to trade Nasdaq as ZFIV. Outside date June 11, 2027. De-SPAC borrow event: monitor SPKL redemptions ahead of the vote, warrant activity, and post-close borrow tightness on the thin legacy float at ZFIV. Forward-calendar on the SPAC / De-SPAC Monitor. |
| 46 | MoE | WTRG | NEW May 18 (prior announcement; activity in window). American Water Works and Essential Utilities all-stock merger of equals. Ohio Public Utilities Commission approval received May 14, 2026 per joint PR Newswire release. Both shareholder votes previously passed. Combined entity would serve more than 4.7 million water/wastewater connections and over 740,000 gas connections. Close expected end of Q1 2027 subject to remaining state regulatory approvals across multiple jurisdictions. Long-dated utility spread; each PUC approval milestone can shift borrow demand in either name. Stock-leg arb continues until close. Monitor state PUC dockets; track exchange ratio against acquirer/target price. Verify exchange ratio in definitive proxy. |
| 46 | BHP | AAL | BHP Group Limited reported to be pursuing all-share acquisition of Anglo American PLC (~$39B; REPORTED | unverified against primary filings). Conditional on Anglo American spinning off South African platinum (Amplats) and iron ore (Kumba) assets before deal executes. Cross-border arb requires identification of the hedgeable consideration line (NYSE BHP vs. ASX vs. LSE vs. ADR vs. swap). REPORTED only | do not pre-position. Monitor for UK Takeover Code Rule 2.7 announcement (firm offer deadline). Prior 2024 BHP hostile bid cycle was ultimately withdrawn. Verify against primary company disclosures. |
| 46 | PSH | UMG.AS | NEW (per user direction). Pershing Square cash-and-stock proposal valued Universal Music Group ~EUR 30.4/share (~EUR 55B). UMG board rejected; major holder Bolloré reportedly opposed. NOT a signed definitive transaction; reference/event watch only. UMG ordinary (Euronext Amsterdam) / ADR borrow, event-volatility, and SPARC-related positioning may matter. No recall obligation; monitor for any revised or firm offer. |
| 46 | FOREIGN | OGN | Definitive agreement Apr 26: all-cash $14.00/share, ~$11.75B EV, ~24% premium to recent close. Outside date Jan 26, 2027; $120M termination fee. Organon is womens health pharma spun from MRK 2021. All-cash structure = mandatory recall at closing. Begin OGN loan inventory review; arb spread setup is OGN-only (Sun Pharma is foreign-listed, no US short hedge). Watch for definitive proxy and shareholder vote scheduling. |
| 46 | P/E | TXNM | FERC approved 2/20. FCC + HSR + PUCT done. TWO REMAINING: NRC (Palo Verde nuclear) + New Mexico PRC (~Aug 2026). $350M rev. term. fee. Deadline 12/31/26. |
| 46 | TXN | SLAB | Texas Instruments $TXN acquiring Silicon Laboratories (SLAB). SLAB shareholders voted to adopt the merger agreement April 30, 2026. Regulatory clearance (HSR + foreign competition reviews) is the remaining gate. Semiconductor consolidation carries Second Request risk | timeline may extend. Consideration mix (cash vs. stock) not yet confirmed in notes; verify against definitive merger agreement to determine TXN arb-borrow profile. SLAB borrow direction depends on balance of cover flows vs. regulatory-risk shorts. |
| 46 | TBD | KW | NEW May 18 (surfaced via concurrent bond actions). Kennedy-Wilson Holdings take-private financing surfaced May 15 via Kennedy-Wilson IR press release announcing: (i) tender for any-and-all 5.000 percent senior notes due 2031 ($600M outstanding) at $1,010 per $1,000 plus accrued interest, and (ii) conditional full redemption of 2029 and 2030 notes | all explicitly tied to take-private financing. Per Kennedy-Wilson IR. Acquirer identity and per-share cash consideration need confirmation from definitive merger agreement and SC 13E-3 / proxy filings expected in coming weeks. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL AT CLOSING (once terms confirmed). Begin recall preparation against expected close window. Bond and equity loan closeouts may converge near merger close. Multiple bond series in tender; credit-and-equity hedge book coordination required. |
| 44 | DESPAC | MACI | NEW Mar 27. Melar Acquisition I (MACI) / Everli Global de-SPAC business combination ~$180M. 8-K filed. Monitor MACI borrow and warrants activity around closing mechanics. Ticker/CUSIP transition will create settlement friction if compressed timeline. |
| 44 | ISSUER | NFE | RSA signed 3/17. Splitting into BrazilCo (private, creditor-owned) and New NFE (public). Debt reduced ~$5.7B → ~$527.5M. Creditors receive 65% of New NFE equity; existing shareholders retain 35%. UK RP process launches April. Prepare for potential CUSIP change. |
| 42 | ISSUER | ED | NEW May 8. Consolidated Edison announced $2.0B at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program | common shares via agents / forward purchasers (up to 1% commissions). Issuer can sell into the market over time at its discretion. Gradual dilution / supply addition rather than discrete event. Utility issuer with mega-cap float; ATM unlikely to materially shift borrow rates near-term but adds ongoing primary supply line. Watch program drawdown disclosures in subsequent 10-Qs; flag if forward purchasers indicate accelerated draw. |
| 42 | SHEL | ARX | Shell agreed to acquire ARC Resources (TSX: ARX). $13.6B equity / $16.4B EV. Consideration ~75% Shell shares / 25% cash (~228M SHEL shares + ~$3.4B cash). Closing H2 2026 subject to ARC shareholder + court approvals and regulatory clearances. Canadian target borrow (ARX.TO) and SHEL hedge borrow both relevant. Stock-heavy consideration may stimulate SHEL shorting from arbs. Cross-border custody, Canadian settlement, and tax mechanics may affect recall timing. |
| 38 | ISSUER | STR-LK | REPORTED, UNVERIFIED. A reported Stripe accelerated lock-up release (~15% of the employee restricted pool, ~45M shares, effective mid-June) was flagged in reconciliation research but could NOT be confirmed against any primary filing, and Stripe is not confirmed as a US-listed public company (no NYSE: STR line located). Carried as a REPORTED watch item only; do NOT pre-position. No recall action. Verify the listing status and an 8-K / insider-sale registration before treating as actionable; absent a primary source this row remains REPORTED and unconfirmed. |
| 36 | INCY | Vega | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Incyte Form 8-K and Business Wire release dated June 8, 2026. Incyte agreed to acquire Vega Therapeutics, a wholly owned subsidiary of privately held Star Therapeutics, for $1.25B upfront plus up to $750M in sales milestones (total up to $2.0B), structured as an equity/stock purchase, close expected Q3 2026 subject to HSR. The target is private, so there is no target borrow; the borrowed public leg is the acquirer, INCY. Incyte disclosed an expected ~$1.25B R&D charge hitting Q3 and FY2026 results, the kind of earnings-event detail that can drive INCY short interest and borrow demand. Lead asset VGA039 is a Phase 3 monoclonal antibody (Protein S) for von Willebrand disease. Acquirer-side watch; no target float impact, no target recall. |
| 36 | FSUN | HMST | FirstSun Capital Bancorp amended merger agreement with HomeStreet (HMST): exchange ratio reduced from 0.4345 to 0.3867 FSUN per HMST share; equity raise increased from $175M to $235M. Ratio cut over-hedges existing arb positions | mechanical result is short-cover (BUY FSUN) in near term, making FSUN borrow EASIER. Larger equity raise adds future dilutive supply. Verify amended definitive agreement and revised close date on EDGAR. HMST holders receive fewer FSUN shares under amended terms. |
| 36 | NVDA | MRVL | NVIDIA and Marvell announced $2B strategic investment and partnership on March 31. NVLink Fusion, silicon photonics, AI-RAN for 5G/6G. NOT a tender offer or acquisition. MRVL surged ~7-11% on announcement. No recall risk. Strategic investment validates MRVL custom AI silicon positioning. Monitor borrow dynamics | gap-up creates short-seller pressure. Track NVDA Schedule 13D/13G filing for position details. |
| 32 | PRIVATE | SYY | NEW Apr 6. Sysco acquiring privately held Jetro Restaurant Depot for $29.1B ($21.6B cash + 91.5M SYY shares ~16% dilution). Jetro: 166 cash-and-carry warehouses, ~$16B revenue. Funded by $21B new debt. SYY fell ~12% on announcement. Target is private | no direct target-side lending impact. Monitor SYY borrow demand for dilution/leverage-related shorts. Antitrust review likely given scale. |
| 32 | ISSUER | DVN | NEW May 18. Devon Energy board authorized $8.0B common-stock repurchase program on May 7, 2026, concurrent with CTRA / DVN merger close that same day. Authorization expires June 30, 2029. Represents approximately 15 percent of combined post-merger market capitalization | largest single-issuer buyback in ASC coverage universe. Method TBD: open-market, ASR, or 10b5-1 plan likely (or combination). Execution pace will determine borrow rate trajectory; ASR or aggressive open-market would meaningfully contract float over months. Monitor 10-Q disclosures for actual repurchase activity; Form 8-K for any ASR announcement. Float-contraction supportive of utilization rate trajectory in DVN over the multi-year window. |
| 32 | ISSUER | CCI | Crown Castle completed ~$8.5B divestitures (Fiber → Zayo; Small Cells → Arium Networks/EQT) effective May 1, 2026. Simultaneously authorized $1.0B share repurchase program. Towers-only REIT post-divestiture. Buyback creates lendable-float contraction over execution window | HARDER trajectory. Short-thesis reset from leverage/fiber-capex removal may trigger some cover (EASIER offset). Monitor buyback execution mechanism (open-market vs. ASR vs. 10b5-1) and any ASR tranche 8-K disclosure. Leverage reduction >$7B post-divestiture. |
| 32 | ISSUER | SNDK | SanDisk Corporation $6.0B share repurchase program authorized. Authorization is permission, not execution | float reduction only occurs when shares are actually repurchased. Do not infer HARDER pressure from authorization alone. Watch for ASR tranche 8-K disclosure (discrete near-term supply-contraction event). Open-market or 10b5-1 execution would be gradual. Verify authorization date, term, and execution mechanism against primary 8-K on EDGAR. |
| 30 | APLD | EKSO | NEW Apr 13. Applied Digital cloud business merging into Ekso Bionics (EKSO) via Contribution and Exchange Agreement (Feb 15). Renames ChronoScale (CHRN). APLD retains ~97%. S-4 pending. Close H1 2026. APLD Q3 results (Apr 8) confirmed combination advancing. Track S-4 proxy for lockup schedules on EKSO/ChronoScale insiders | models incoming supply and borrow availability. Standard reverse-merger dynamics at close. CUSIP/ticker transition: EKSO → CHRN. |
| 30 | ADSK | ADSK-MX | NEW. Verified against the Autodesk news release dated May 28, 2026. Autodesk agreed to acquire private MaintainX in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $3.6 billion, funded with cash on hand and debt; expected to close later this fiscal year subject to regulatory review. Largest acquisition in Autodesk history. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: ADSK is the short leg, not the private target. Large cash-and-debt outlay may drive ADSK acquirer-stock hedging and borrow demand; target private, no direct float impact. Acquirer-side watch. |
| 30 | ADI | ADI-EMP | NEW. Verified against the Analog Devices Form 8-K and PR Newswire release dated May 19, 2026. ADI agreed to acquire private Empower Semiconductor in an all-cash transaction for $1.5 billion; close expected in H2 calendar 2026 subject to customary conditions and HSR clearance. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: ADI is the short leg, not the private target. AI/data-center power-management exposure can drive event-driven short interest; ADI is the relevant hedge/borrow leg. Private target, no float impact; acquirer-side watch. |
| 30 | MDA | BCT | NEW Jun 22. Verified against the MDA Space PR Newswire release dated June 19, 2026. MDA Space (TSX/NYSE: MDA) agreed to acquire 100% of Blue Canyon Technologies LLC from RTX (Raytheon) in an all-cash transaction with a purchase price and enterprise value of US$620M (~C$874M), fully committed and financed through senior secured debt. Blue Canyon is a private spacecraft/satellite-component and mission-services business (two Denver facilities, 400+ employees) carved out of RTX. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: MDA is the relevant short/hedge leg; the target is a private RTX subsidiary (no target float, no target recall). Close expected Q4 2026 subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals including a US CFIUS review. Acquirer-side watch; event-driven defense-space and CFIUS-headline hedging may move MDA borrow. |
| 30 | NEE | CALIBER | NEW. NextEra reported to acquire Caliber Resource Partners (~$1.3B) and form gas-infrastructure JV with Quantum Capital. Acquirer-side; relevant to NEE gas-infra exposure. REPORTED only; verify against primary filings before treating as confirmed. |
| 30 | SPINOFF | MMM-CA | REPORTED, UNVERIFIED. A reported 3M consumer-adhesives spin-off (Form 10, est. ~$5.5B, reported record date ~Sep 15) was flagged in reconciliation research but could NOT be confirmed against any primary filing. The only 3M separation on record is the completed Solventum (healthcare) spin-off; no consumer-adhesives Form 10 was located on EDGAR. Carried as a REPORTED watch item only; do NOT pre-position. No recall action. Verify against a 3M Form 10 / 8-K before treating as actionable; absent a primary filing this row remains REPORTED and unconfirmed. |
| 28 | CRM | Fin | NEW Jun 15. Verified against the Salesforce Form 8-K and Business Wire release dated June 15, 2026. Salesforce signed a definitive agreement to acquire Fin (formerly Intercom), a private AI customer-agent company, for approximately $3.6 billion, subject to customary purchase-price adjustments; close expected in Q4 of Salesforce fiscal year 2027 subject to regulatory clearances, with no change to FY2027 guidance and no impact to the capital-return program. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: CRM is the short leg, not the private target. Borrow on CRM will likely remain ample, but the deal supports event-driven enterprise-software, AI-agent, and basket-hedge inquiries. No target float impact, no target recall; acquirer-side watch. |
| 20 | MSI | D-Fend | NEW Jun 8. Verified against the Motorola Solutions release dated June 1, 2026. Motorola Solutions agreed to acquire private D-Fend Solutions for $1.5 billion, expected to close Q4 2026. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: MSI is the short leg, not the private counter-drone target. Borrow on MSI is likely to remain ample, but the deal supports event-driven defense-tech and counter-drone valuation hedges and basket-hedge inquiries. No target float impact; acquirer-side watch. |
| 18 | JNJ | Firefly | NEW Jun 8. Verified against the Johnson & Johnson press release dated June 8, 2026. J&J entered a definitive agreement to acquire private Firefly Bio for $1.0 billion cash, adding the Firelink degrader antibody conjugate platform for KRAS-driven tumors; close expected later in 2026 subject to regulatory approvals. The borrowed public leg is the acquirer: JNJ is the short leg, not the private target. Borrow on JNJ will likely remain ample, but expect event-driven oncology, pharma-M&A, and basket-hedge inquiries. No target float impact; acquirer-side watch. |
| 72 | SPINOFF | MBGL | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs S&P Global 8-K / Form 10 (May 21, 2026). One-for-one pro rata distribution of Mobility Global (NYSE: MBGL); record date June 15, 2026; when-issued MBGL WI June 26-30; regular-way MBGL begins July 1, 2026, distribution effective 12:01 a.m. NY time July 1. Fractional shares sold for cash. Spin/stub borrow event imminent: watch SPGI WI vs MBGL WI stub-versus-WI borrow, due-bill and manufactured-payment mechanics across the record date, post-spin lendable supply in MBGL, and S&P 500 / index-tracker repositioning. Operational inflection at the July 1 regular-way open. |
| 60 | ON | SYNA | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs onsemi / Synaptics Form 425 and 8-K (June 25, 2026). All-stock transaction at a fixed 1.350 ON shares per SYNA share, ~$7.0 billion enterprise value, ~19% premium to 10-day VWAP; SYNA holders end with ~12% of the combined company. The live arb is long SYNA / short ON, so ON is the borrow-relevant hedge leg (arb short demand flows through the ON acquirer ticker) while SYNA carries recall from corporate-action mechanics at closing. Close expected mid-2027 subject to SYNA vote, antitrust and foreign-investment clearances, tax opinions and S-4 effectiveness; long pendency keeps the stock-leg borrow demand persistent. SYNA $235M / ON $320M termination fees. |
| 58 | SPINOFF | CMCSA | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs Comcast statement and CNBC/Bloomberg/CNN coverage (June 29, 2026). Comcast announced a tax-free spin-off separating NBCUniversal and Sky (Universal studios/parks, Peacock, NBC, Telemundo, Bravo, Sky) into a new independent public company; current investors will own shares in both. Completion expected in about one year, subject to board approval, tax opinions, regulatory approvals and financing; Comcast expects to retain up to a 19.9% stake for up to one year post-spin, with the dual-class structure carried to the new company. CMCSA jumped ~20%+ on the news. Large-cap non-dividend corporate action with future CUSIP, index and when-issued consequences: no live recall yet; forward-calendar the separation and watch for Form 10, record date, distribution ratio and WI mechanics. |
| 58 | ABBV | APGE | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs AbbVie / Apogee joint release and PR Newswire (June 22, 2026). AbbVie to acquire all outstanding Apogee common stock for $135.11 per share in cash, ~$10.9 billion equity value (~49.5% premium). Both boards approved; close expected Q3 2026 subject to Apogee shareholder approval and regulatory clearance; Fairmount and Venrock voting agreements in place. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL at closing. APGE is the borrow-relevant target leg; no acquirer-stock hedge leg. Biotech/immunology ETF rebalance exposure on removal at close. |
| 55 | ISSUER | ALIT | NEW Jun 29. REPORTED. Alight announced a 1-for-20 reverse split on June 18, 2026; effective date June 30 with split-adjusted trading beginning July 1. Lending treatment is operational rather than directional: loan-quantity adjustment, collateral re-mark, options/warrant/convertible deliverable adjustment, and fractional-share cash processing across the effective date. Confirm against the ALIT 8-K / exchange notice before publication. |
| 54 | FOREIGN | TECH | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs Merck KGaA / Bio-Techne release (June 25, 2026). Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany to acquire Bio-Techne for $73.00 per share in cash, ~$11.3 billion enterprise value. Foreign acquirer (no listed US acquirer borrow leg). ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL at closing. TECH is the borrow-relevant target leg with biotech/tools ETF rebalance exposure at close. Confirm definitive 8-K and tender/merger structure and statutory regulatory timeline. |
| 52 | CRH | ACA | NEW Jun 29. Verified vs CRH / Arcosa release (June 22, 2026). CRH to acquire Arcosa in an all-cash transaction at $150.00 per share, ~$8.5 billion enterprise value, subject to Arcosa stockholder and regulatory approvals. ALL-CASH = MANDATORY RECALL at closing. ACA is the borrow-relevant target leg; no acquirer-stock hedge leg. An early secondary headline citing a Q1 2026 close is inconsistent with the June-2026 announcement; carrying H2 2026 pending the definitive 8-K. |
| 50 | DESPAC | CCXI | NEW Jun 29. REPORTED. Churchill Capital Corp XI definitive de-SPAC business combination with Agility Robotics at ~$2.5 billion pre-money. Monitor CCXI redemptions, PIPE terms, and warrants; post-close float in AGLT (target ticker on completion) is the float-tightness watch. Redemption deadline triggers hard recall on CCXI. Confirm S-4 / proxy and redemption mechanics before publication. |
| 46 | PLD | SEGRO | NEW Jun 29. REPORTED. Prologis made a rejected all-share proposal for SEGRO at 0.084 PLD shares per SEGRO share, implying ~925p and ~£12.6 billion. If Prologis proceeds, the arb is long SEGRO / short PLD; cross-border borrow demand flows through the PLD acquirer leg and UK Takeover Code (PUSU) timing governs. Currently rejected: EDGE watch only, no live recall until a firm Rule 2.7 offer. Confirm against any RNS / Rule 2.4 or 2.7 announcement before escalating. |
| 30 | IPSN | Kartos | NEW Jun 29. REPORTED; confirm definitive agreement. Ipsen to acquire private Kartos Therapeutics: $450 million upfront plus up to $1.3 billion in milestones, ~$1.75 billion total potential value (not merely "up to $1.3 billion"). No public target borrow; the borrowed public leg, if any, is the acquirer. Ipsen trades primarily in Paris (FOREIGN); monitor only for basket or event-hedge flow. Private target, no float impact; acquirer-side watch. |

APPENDIX | Trader Tier Definitions & Priority Rating Methodology
Trader Tier (operational classification). ALPHA: election or proration where some holders are forced into the suboptimal election, creating capturable arbitrage. EDGE: material spread plus structural friction (collar/floor, CVR with binding milestone, contested bid, regulatory binary, MoE, cross-border scheme). SQUEEZE: supply-shock candidate (lockup expiry, quiet-period, low-float dilutive offering, convertible delta-hedge, PIPE resale). MANDATORY: all-cash takeouts and all-stock-without-election deals; recall mandatory, edge absent. PASS: no float impact, no recall, no edge; suppressed from the published view and tracked in the master Excel.
Priority Rating (0 to 100) = Time Urgency (0-25) + Recall Force (0-25) + Float/Supply (0-25) + Optionality Edge (0-25). It is not a squeeze score but a forward-looking read on how the supply condition is likely to develop under the deal's specific mechanics. Worked example (ASRT / Garda Therapeutics): all-cash tender plus CVR with an imminent second-step settlement scores high Time Urgency and maximum Recall Force, a small-cap Float/Supply premium, and EDGE-level Optionality from the CVR, yielding a top-of-book rating. M&A anatomy (STEL/PB as secondary example): on the live mixed cash/stock deal the arb is long STEL / short PB at 0.3803, so borrow demand from arbs hedging the long-STEL leg sits on PB while STEL carries the corporate-action recall pressure at closing.
