Urano and Pegasus Receive Shareholder and Court Approval for Acquisitions by Aero; Name Change to Manhattan Uranium Discovery Corp. Effective May 7, 2026
Manhattan Uranium Clears Final Hurdle for Merger, Ticker Change Set

The most recent release (May 4, 2026) confirms that shareholders of Urano Energy Corp. and Pegasus Resources Inc., along with the Supreme Court of British Columbia, have approved the acquisition by Aero Energy Limited. The transaction is set to close on or about May 7, 2026. Upon closing, Aero Energy will rename itself Manhattan Uranium Discovery Corp. (Ticker: MANU). This follows a March 2, 2026 announcement outlining the combination and a March 31, 2026 financing closure of $10.5 million.
The news is Routine - Positive. The approval and closing were anticipated following the initial transaction announcement in March 2026. While it removes execution risk regarding court and shareholder hurdles, it does not introduce new fundamental value or change the deal terms previously priced into the market. The financing required to fund this ($10.5M) was already closed in late March. The primary impact is operational certainty rather than strategic surprise.
