Two Harbors Adjourns Special Meeting to Allow More Voting on UWMC Merger
Summary
Two Harbors Investment Corp. (TWO) announced the adjournment of its special meeting, originally scheduled to vote on the proposed merger with UWM Holdings Corporation (UWMC), to allow additional time for shareholder voting.

The pending acquisition has been a significant strategic focus for UWMC, as evidenced by recent investor presentations detailing its benefits. Traders will be watching for the rescheduled meeting and the outcome of the vote, as any further delays or complications in closing this material acquisition could introduce uncertainty for UWMC, which is currently trading near its 52-week low.
At the time of this announcement, UWMC was trading at $3.79 on NYSE in the Finance sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $6.1B. The 52-week trading range was $3.62 to $7.14.
