Insights

M&A and Capital Markets Analyst

Creditor approval advances the Rex acquisition, with court approval pending.

The vote by Rex creditors in favor of Air T’s bid is a key process milestone that often precedes court sanction in restructurings or sales involving creditor schemes. The filing states the plan is for an Air T indirect subsidiary to acquire all outstanding Rex shares, consolidating control at closing.

Completion is conditioned on court and other approvals, and the company notes there is no assurance of closing. The timing target is by the end of 2025, but actual completion depends on the court process and meeting all conditions. Subsequent disclosures may detail final terms after approvals and closing.
