Sierra Metals Updates Shareholder Rights Plan Amid Hostile Bid

Story Highlights

Invest with Confidence:

Sierra Metals ( (TSE:SMT) ) has issued an update.

Sierra Metals has announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) will defer its decision on the company’s shareholder rights plan adopted in response to a hostile takeover bid by Alpayana S.A.C. The plan remains effective and aims to protect shareholder interests against the unsolicited bid for Sierra’s common shares. The TSX’s deferral is a standard procedure in takeover situations, and the rights plan will stay in effect for at least six months unless terminated earlier.
