Critical Metals Corp (Nasdaq: CRML) updated terms of its proposed acquisition of European Lithium, amending the exchange ratio in the Scheme Implementation Deed. The prior fixed ratio of 0.035 New CRML shares per European Lithium share is replaced by a floating ratio linked to the 20‑day CRML Nasdaq VWAP before the scheme meeting.
If the Scheme VWAP is at or below US$8.00, European Lithium securityholders would receive the maximum of 0.045 New CRML shares; if at or above US$16.00, they receive the minimum of 0.025 shares. Between these prices, the ratio adjusts linearly. According to the company, this structure shares CRML share price movements between both sets of securityholders and limits short‑term volatility via a cap and collar. Based on the latest 20‑day VWAP (less than US$8.00), the indicative ratio would currently be 0.045 and will also apply to European Lithium listed options and performance rights. All other material scheme terms, conditions and the strategic rationale remain unchanged, with implementation targeted for October 2026, subject to approvals.
