I don't know about that. From the news clip, it seems it was a simple stock swap. Strictly paper. Granted, JoWood's stock has to be worth something to make the acquisition, but it's not like DC's stock price is in the stratosphere. Not to be a pessimist, but JoWood may have even rushed the purchase of DC to hedge their bets in case a disappointing showing of G3 in NA causes their stock to drop before the end of the year.
