Description

STAAR Surgical and Alcon's merger deal hangs in the balance as shareholders express dissatisfaction with the current offer. Despite Alcon's rejection of STAAR's request to raise the buyout price, STAAR's board explored options to improve the deal, including a price hike or a new bidding window. However, Alcon's refusal to increase the offer and the shareholders' resistance have created uncertainty around the deal's future. With the voting record date reset and the meeting postponed, all eyes are on the December 3rd decision, as the buyout's fate remains uncertain.
