Verisk strongly disagrees with a Delaware Chancery Court ruling that found it was not entitled to terminate its $2.35 billion acquisition of AccuLynx after FTC review delays. The court ordered Verisk to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain regulatory approval and allowed AccuLynx damages for direct costs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face higher legal and compliance risks in M&A deals with regulatory delays after this court ruling. Prepare to negotiate more cautious termination clauses and consider early engagement with regulators to avoid costly disputes.
