By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., Dec. 18 - EDO Corp. said its shareholders voted "overwhelmingly" to approve the company's merger with ITT Corp. at a special meeting on Tuesday.
More than 77% of the outstanding shares were voted in favor of the deal that gives EDO shareholders $56 per share.
The transaction is expected to close on Thursday, according to a company news release.
As previously reported, ITT subsidiary Donatello Acquisition Corp. will merge with and into EDO, with EDO continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ITT.
New York-based EDO designs and manufactures products for aerospace, defense, intelligence and commercial markets.
