Closing / Completion
Closing / Completion
The stage when a transaction is completed under the agreement and the relevant consideration and ownership interests are exchanged.
How to read it
Distinguish a proposal, signing, shareholder approval, regulatory clearance and completion. Identify the stage actually announced.
A common pitfall
Announcing an acquisition or obtaining one approval does not establish that all closing conditions are satisfied.
