Key Considerations

• 📊 Because this is an all stock proposal, your exposure is tied to how the combined company is valued rather than to cash flowing into SGI.
• 📊 Keep an eye on any commentary about expected earnings and margin profile post deal, especially given SGI's current 4.6% net margin and 61.7x P/E.
• ⚠️ Interest payments are not well covered by earnings, so adding Leggett & Platt could matter for leverage and financing risk if the deal moves ahead.
