Personally I think the takeover will be good for the long-term success of BCI (even if the purchase price seems a bit steep). However there seems to be such negative sentiment around concerning the deal, I imagine the shareprice would rebound considerably if the deal was not to proceed.
Thoughts?

Actually the price gets cheaper by the day.
When the deal was first announced the implied offer was $1.49 (0.44 share) +$0.10 cash = $1.59 or $256.5mil implied offer.
Assigning current SP of $1.55 = $0.68 + $0.10 = $0.78 or $126mil implied offer.
Now I am starting to think the some of this slide may be related to getting the book value of this deal as low as possible.
