ATII Shareholders Approve $1.2B Forge Nano Merger; Closing Days Away
ATII sits 22% above its 52-week low of $7.59 on light trading volume (0.1× avg).
Summary
Shareholders cleared the $1.2B business combination with Forge Nano, removing the last major hurdle to the de-SPAC, with 15,416,866 ATII shares voted for the deal and 1,113,414 against at the October 16 special meeting, where 55.9% of shares were represented. The deal is expected to close within days, at which point the combined company becomes Forge Nano Holdings, Inc. and trades on Nasdaq under NANO and NANOW. This follows the September 24 proxy detailing the $1.2B valuation and $123M PIPE, and the October 13 amendment that restructured the PIPE into 7M pre-funded warrants with price-reset and additional-warrant provisions. The vote eliminates deal-break risk that had hung over the stock, though the amended PIPE terms mean more potential dilution than the original structure. Watch redemption levels at closing — heavy redemptions would shrink the cash the combined company brings to the table.
