RMAX REAX

Why it matters: An all-in acquisition of Re/Max at a defined $13.80/share sets a takeout price that moves the target (RMAX) to deal terms and repositions the acquirer (REAX), while signaling further consolidation across the pressured US residential brokerage sector.

At publish time: Headline states a concrete M&A price ($13.80/share, ~$550M) for a public target (RMAX) being bought by public acquirer (REAX) — a defined takeout premium tradable at publish time.
