VersaBank Shareholders Approve U.S. Reorganization, Clearing Final Hurdle
VBNK has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $11.25.
Summary
Shareholders approved the proposed U.S. reorganization at the September 16 special meeting, the final step before the holding company structure takes effect. The vote follows the SEC's August 5 effectiveness declaration and the August 25 definitive agreement, which includes a one-for-one share exchange. Approval removes the last contingency and allows the company to proceed with its U.S. listing strategy, supporting its growing U.S. SRP business. The reorganization is expected to close shortly, with no change to shareholders' economic interest.
