Management talked to 3 large Randgold shareholders prior to the deal announcement.
One of which commented there was little to be excited about with investors receiving no premium.
However he was in favor of the deal, because he viewed it as positive for his holding in Acacia.
An unintended consequence of the merger is that there could be a takeout bid for Acacia he said.
