HSR Early Termination Notices
This Federal Trade Commission HSR Early Termination Notices feed of US focused merger and acquisitions delivers the latest actions and announcements made by the FTC. The FTC along with the Department of Justice Antitrust Division are the bodies responsible for M&A oversight in the USA. Either agency can take legal action to block a transaction if they feel it would substantially lessen competition. In order to allow sufficient time to review the deal, parties must wait 30 days (15 days for a cash tender offer or bankruptcy) after filing a notification. The parties involved in the deal may however request an early termination of that waiting period and be allowed to close the deal sooner if it is determined there are no competitive issues. Early Hart-Scott-Rodino expiration can be granted if they have completed their review and determined they will not take any enforcement action during the waiting period. Notifications of this type can have a significant impact on the movement of the target’s stock price.
HOWEVER: In 2021, the early termination process was “temporarily” suspended due to the impact of COVID-19 creating a backlog of reported transactions. this page will continue to provide live FTC Press Releases and remain ready to continue provinding HSR Early Termination announcements should the FTC decision on early HSR termination be reversed.
In the meantime, both these agencies can be found, amongst others, on our comprehensive list of global competition regulators. We cannot stress how important it is to stay abreast of the latest merger arbitrage news especially when related to significant decisions made by the regulatory authorities.
