Columbia Financial's $925M Subscription Offering Sees Strong Demand, Purchase Limits Raised
CLBK sits 45% above its 52-week low of $13.66.
Summary
Columbia Financial announced preliminary results for its second-step conversion offering, receiving approximately $925 million in orders. The company increased maximum individual purchase limits from $3.0 million to $8.0 million and group limits from $10.0 million to $50.0 million. This update follows the highly dilutive offering of up to 192.6 million shares at $10.00, which commenced in May. The strong preliminary demand and increased limits suggest the significant capital raise is progressing well, which is critical for the company's conversion to a fully stock form. The offering is expected to close by June 30 for resolicited subscribers, pending shareholder and regulatory approvals.
