Episode description: A $223 million earnout, one October email, and four years of litigation. Roger Royse breaks down the Delaware Court of Chancery’s September 2026 post-trial opinion in ACON Igloo Holdings v. Dometic — why the seller lost every claim, why the buyer’s counterclaims failed too, and the drafting moves both sides should be making in every earnout.
