Pro forma, Diamondback’s oil production will grow to an average 468,000 bbl/d (816,000 boe/d) from 273,000 bbl/d (463,000 boe/d). Analysts at Stifel have said the combined company will have a market value of more than $50 billion.
Diamondback said its stockholders approved the issuance of shares of Diamondback common stock in connection with the Endeavor merger, according to an April 26 press release.
Diamondback stockholders also approved a proposal to amend the company's certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of Diamondback common stock.
The final voting results from Diamondback's special meeting of stockholders will be set forth in a Form 8-K to be filed by Diamondback with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
