DMC Global (Nasdaq: BOOM) has reached an agreement with the Munera family, its Arcadia Products joint venture partners, to extend the put option exercise date to September 6, 2026. This modification delays the earliest date DMC can be required to purchase the remaining 40% of Arcadia, which was originally set for December 23, 2024. DMC maintains its call option right to acquire the remaining stake, exercisable from December 23, 2024.
The extension provides DMC relief from potential equity dilution and increased leverage that could have resulted from near-term satisfaction of the put obligation. The company plans to use this time to deleverage, explore strategic financing options, and improve performance of challenged businesses. Management will present new operating strategies and a simplified strategic plan focused on EBITDA growth, margin expansion, and cash conversion during the year-end earnings call in early 2025.
