DICK'S Sporting Goods Withdraws and Plans to Refile Antitrust Notification for Foot Locker Merger
DICK’S Sporting Goods announced it has voluntarily withdrawn its pre-merger notification form under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act related to its planned merger with Foot Locker, to allow more time for the FTC to review the deal. The company plans to resubmit the form on or about July 25, starting a new 30-day waiting period.
The move is a standard procedural step and both companies remain committed to completing the merger in the second half of 2025, pending regulatory approvals and Foot Locker shareholder consent.
The companies previously filed a registration statement and proxy materials with the SEC, which are publicly available.
