Minneapolis, Minnesota-based Northern has submitted at least two offers for Granite Ridge. The latest bid, made in recent weeks, was at a roughly 20% premium to the target’s share price.

While Granite Ridge’s management has rebuffed the overtures so far, Northern remains interested in a deal and could sweeten its offer next year.
