In one paragraph

Utz Brands, Inc. (UTZ) agreed to be acquired by Intersnack Group GmbH & Co. KG for $14.25 per share in cash. Unlike a tender offer, this deal needs a shareholder vote: the special meeting is scheduled for November 13, 2026. The companies expect to close by December 31, 2026 at the latest (the end of the period named in the proxy), if regulators also approve. At closing, each share is converted into the right to receive the cash, paid through your broker.

What can a shareholder do?

1. Vote and wait

Vote your shares (by proxy, before the meeting). If the merger closes, the cash is paid to your broker account automatically; you do not need to tender anything.

2. Sell on the market

You get the market price now, usually a little below the cash price (the spread above), without waiting for closing.

3. Appraisal rights

Holders who do not vote in favour may be able to ask a court to value their shares. It is slow and costly; the proxy explains the steps.

General information, not advice. Taxes: a cash buyout is generally treated like a sale of your shares; check your own situation.

What could go wrong?

The vote fails. Without shareholder approval the merger cannot close.
Regulators. Antitrust or other approvals can delay or block the deal; the proxy lists the conditions.
A failed deal. If the merger agreement is terminated, the share price can fall well below the cash price.
