MEG Meeting on Cenovus Deal Postponed
A meeting to discuss the proposed takeover of MEG by Cenovus Energy Inc. has been delayed another week.
MEG board chair James McFarland paused the meeting twice on Thursday to address a last-minute "regulatory inquiry" before adjourning it until November.
This development is the latest in a months-long takeover fight between Cenovus and Strathcona Resources Ltd.
- Cenovus is an oilsands giant.
- Strathcona is a smaller rival bidder that dropped its all-stock bid earlier this month.
- Strathcona has pledged to vote its 14% stake in MEG in favour of a sweetened offer from Cenovus.
No comment from the companies on the regulatory inquiry.
