M&A and Capital Markets Analyst

Transformative acquisition with sizable concurrent equity financing.

CompoSecure agreed to acquire Husky Technologies Limited for aggregate consideration of $4.976 billion, paid in cash and Class A shares. To support the transaction, the company entered into private placement agreements for approximately 106 million shares at $18.50 per share, targeting about $1.96 billion in proceeds, conditioned on the business combination closing.

The closing is expected in Q1 2026 and remains subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approval and company stockholder approval for the share issuance. A management agreement between Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. and Husky will mirror the existing arrangement with CompoSecure Holdings, L.L.C., indicating continuity in management terms post-close.

Investor impact will depend on completion, financing mix, and integration. The private placement implies substantial new equity issuance, while proceeds and consideration terms are explicitly stated. Subsequent proxy materials will outline the share issuance for the special meeting approval.
