The fund was publicly outspoken about Cosette Pharmaceuticals acting in bad faith when trying to exit their acquisition of Mayne Pharma. May saw three deals in the copper space within a week, with the fund thinking at least one was ripe for a contest. New World Resources Limited saw significant action with multiple bidders, starting as a friendly scheme and ultimately seeing nine bids total with Kinterra Capital emerging as the victor. | MYX AU XF1 AU STO AU |
