in pre open, page-9

so let me get this straight, they've achieved "contractual" close but they haven't reached "financial close"

correct me if i'm wrong, but once the contracts are signed, isn't it a done deal?

apparently not, the contract probably had clauses regarding bbp's earnings etc, maybe the banks can call the whole deal off because of bbp's earnings downgrade?

whatever it is, it doesn't look good. i certainly hope they fix everything up by thursday, otherwise bbp will tank, and will take bnb further down with it.
