Building products group James Hardie will shift its primary listing to the New York Stock Exchange after shareholders in US outdoor decking company Azek approved a $14 billion buyout which infuriated many Australian shareholders.
Azek shareholders gave the green light to the cash and scrip deal at a meeting held on Friday (Saturday AEST). Shareholders in James Hardie were denied a vote after the ASX granted the company a waiver in a controversial move months ago.
