Pick the best stocks and maximize your portfolio:

Vera Bradley ( (VRA) ) has shared an announcement.

Vera Bradley, Inc. has adopted a shareholder rights plan effective immediately, issuing one right per common share, designed to protect investors and ensure fair value in case of significant ownership changes. The plan activates if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the stock without board consent, or existing large shareholders increase their stakes. Rights become void for these acquirers but allow others to purchase additional shares at a discount, potentially deterring hostile takeovers. This protective strategy expires on October 11, 2025, and aims to safeguard long-term shareholder interests.
