It would, but won't happen imo.

Sets a pretty dangerous precedent and then what happens if they did move the date and are still out of the money next time around?

Makes a bit of a mockery of the whole thing and is a bit like changing the exercise price for those who may have paid full price to convert.

If a billion dollar transaction can't get them in the money, then i'm not really sure what news will in the short term.

They had their chance on Friday, but the market ignored them.

And to be honest after Friday's response, i can't see anything changing re an increase in SP price in the near short term unless there is some very significant financial news to come out.
