Enbridge Announces Conversion Results for Series B and Series C Preferred Shares
Enbridge Inc. announced the results of conversions for its Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares, Series B and Series C. As of May 17, 2022, 107,904 Series B Shares were converted into Series C Shares, while 1,188,789 Series C Shares were switched to Series B. After June 1, 2022, there will be fewer than 1,000,000 Series C Shares remaining, leading to a mandatory conversion of the remaining Series C Shares into Series B Shares. Both series are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under symbols ENB.PR.B and ENB.PR.C.
- The conversion process indicates strong investor interest in Series C Shares, despite fewer being available post-conversion.
- The announcement clarifies the structure of Enbridge's preferred shares, providing essential information for investors.
- The automatic conversion of Series C Shares into Series B Shares reduces the variety of preferred shares available, potentially impacting investor choice.
- Post-conversion, having less than 1,000,000 Series C Shares could limit liquidity for investors interested in that series.
