Canadian Life Companies Split Corp has announced:
that a special meeting of the holders of the Company’s Preferred Shares and Class A Shares will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern standard time) on April 16, 2012. The purpose of the meeting is to consider a special resolution to approve a reorganization of the Company which includes among other things, a capital reorganization of the Preferred Shares and extending the mandatory termination date for the Company from December 1, 2012 to December 1, 2018. Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 6, 2012 will be provided with the notice of meeting and management information circular in respect of the meeting and will be entitled to vote at the meeting. Details of the matters to be voted on at the special meeting will be provided in the management information circular for the meeting to be mailed to shareholders on or about March 16, 2012.
The Company invests in a portfolio of four publicly traded Canadian life insurance companies as follows: Great-West Life, Industrial Alliance, Manulife Financial and Sun Life Financial. Shares held within the portfolio are expected to range between 10-30% in weight but may vary at any time.
A capital reorganization of the Preferred Shares, eh? Not too surprising seeing as the company’s NAV is only 11.64 as of February 15. We will see on March 16 just what exactly capital reorganization of the Preferred Shares entails, but the fact that the directors were too embarrassed to write it down in the press release is not a good sign.
LFE.PR.A was last mentioned on PrefBlog when it was downgraded to Pfd-4(low) by DBRS. LFE.PR.A is tracked by HIMIPref™ but is relegated to the Scraps index on credit concerns.
