Signet Posts Upbeat Earnings, Joins Ferguson Enterprises, Dollar General And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Tuesday

Sitio Royalties Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STR#NYSE">STR</a>) shares are trading higher by more than 12.2% on Tuesday after the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mergers-and-acquisitions">inked a $4.1 billion deal</a> with Viper Energy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNOM#NASDAQ">VNOM</a>).
The all-equity transaction includes Sitio&#8217;s net debt of about $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2025.
As per the terms, Sitio stockholders will receive 0.4855 shares of Class A common shares in a new holding company (Pro forma Viper) for each share of Sitio Class A common stock.
Similarly, for each unit of Sitio&#8217;s operating subsidiary, holders will receive 0.4855 units of Viper&#8217;s operating subsidiary, Viper Energy Partners LLC, implying a value of $19.41 per share for each Sitio stockholder, based on Viper&#8217;s closing stock price on June 2.
Viper is a subsidiary of Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FANG#NASDAQ">FANG</a>).
The boards of both companies unanimously approved the transaction, and Diamondback, as Viper&#8217;s majority stockholder, has provided its approval via written consent.
The transaction is anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
Upon the transaction&#8217;s completion, Diamondback is projected to hold about 41% of Pro forma Viper&#8217;s outstanding common stock.
Pro forma Viper: The new holding company is expected to hold roughly 85,700 net royalty acres in the Permian Basin (about 43% operated by Diamondback) and own an average 1.8% Net Royalty Interest (NRI) across approximately 33,300 gross producing horizontal wells (or ~608 net wells).
For the fourth quarter of 2025, Pro forma is expected to witness an average production of 64 – 68 thousand barrels of oil per day (mbo/d), or 122 – 130 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (mboe/d).
The company expects 2026 average production to rise by a mid-single-digit percentage from these levels. Synergies from the deal are expected to exceed $50 million annually.
Viper dividend Boost: Along with the deal, Viper&#8217;s board approved a 10% increase to its base dividend to $1.32 per share annually (or 33 cents per share quarterly).
Viper CEO Kaes Van&#8217;t Hof says the transaction &#8220;positions&#8221; Viper to compete for capital with mid- and large-cap E&amp;Ps.
As of March 31, Viper had a cash balance of $560 million and a total <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45206131/viper-energy-inc-a-subsidiary-of-diamondback-energy-inc-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial-and-o" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">long-term debt of $830 million</a>.
Price Action: STR shares are up 8.37% at $18.77 premarket at the last check Tuesday.

Viper Energy Grabs Sitio Royalties In $4.1 Billion Deal, Boosts Dividend 10%

WIIM

Sitio Royalties shares are trading higher after an announcement that Viper Energy will acquire the company through a $4.1 billion all-equity deal.

"The combination of Viper and Sitio signifies an important moment for mineral and royalty interests," stated Kaes Van't Hof, Chief Executive Officer of Viper. "This combination creates a leader in size, scale, float, liquidity and access to investment grade capital in the highly fragmented minerals industry. Pro forma Viper is now clearly a must-own public mineral and royalty company in North America, with attractive size and scale in the Permian Basin. This transaction positions Viper to compete for capital with mid and large cap North American E&amp;Ps; except with higher margins, minimal operating costs, and the lowest dividend breakeven in the space."

As GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) has announced a convertible bond offering to acquire Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), mirroring Strategy Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STR#NASDAQ">STR</a>) plan, experts explain why investors would buy a bond with a 0% coupon.
What Happened: After announcing the change in its investment policy to include Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset, Ryan Cohen&#8216;s GameStop announced a proposed private offering of $1.3 billion of 0% convertible senior notes.
These notes are general unsecured obligations of GameStop, which will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the notes will not accrete.
Institutional investors usually invest in convertible bonds because they&#8217;re a hybrid investment instrument that can be exchanged for equity in the company at a later date. The conversion feature of these notes eventually helps the debt holders to participate in the equity upside on conversion.
But apart from that, according to Tom Lee, the CIO at Fundstrat Capital, these bonds also provide debt investors an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44375602/michael-saylors-mstr-provides-bitcoin-exposure-to-bondholders-with-its-novel-strategy-tom-lee-says-its-helping-bond-managers-outperform-the-market">exposure to Bitcoin</a>, which he described as a &#8220;novel strategy,&#8221; in the case of erstwhile MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor.
&#8220;You might wonder why are bondholders buying these bonds? They are offering for the first time, the ability for someone to put a $1 billion worth in a bond world to own a bond that has exposure to bitcoin,&#8221; Lee said.

Why It Matters: Also, the risk faced by such bonds usually includes refinancing of the debt, explains Bryan Goldstein, the client advisor at Matthews South.
&#8220;The risk is similar to any debt repayment where there is a fixed amount that needs to be repaid, and if the company doesn&#8217;t have cash to repay the bonds they need to refinance &#8211; if equity is one of the options, it would require more shares to be issued,&#8221; Goldstein said.
Furthermore, since the bonds are general unsecured obligations, they aren&#8217;t pegged to Bitcoin value directly.
&#8220;There are generally no financial/maintenance covenants in unsecured convertible bonds that could put the company at risk. The main risk again is on the refinancing at maturity that if the company has assets in bitcoin that need to be liquidated at a lower point, then it stresses the financials of the company,&#8221; added Goldstein.
&#8220;Clearly, the market price of the stock and thus the converts will move with the price of Bitcoin. But if Bitcoin fell to $1,000 tomorrow, it would not trigger anything with the bonds. They would still have the same maturity schedule,&#8221; said Eli Pars, the co-chief investment officer at Calamos Investments.
Price Action: GameStop rose 11.65% on Wednesday, and it was down 7.40% in premarket on Thursday. The stock has fallen 7.50% on a year-to-date basis, whereas it is 115.34% higher over a year.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, were mixed in premarket on Thursday. The SPY was up 0.053% to $568.89, while the QQQ declined 0.060% to $484.09, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro</a> data.
