The company expects to issue the full 114,985,163 shares, indicating strong shareholder participation and no reliance on the standby commitment. Proceeds will repay the C$575 million bridge facility and other debt from the Connacher acquisition. This follows the upsized offering priced at C$6.74 per share in August.
