Shutterstock, Inc. filed an 8-K to report that the U.S. Department of Justice has completed its review of the proposed merger of equals between Shutterstock and Getty Images Holdings, Inc., and the Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period has expired without conditions. This unconditional U.S. antitrust clearance is a key regulatory milestone for the deal.
The companies expect the merger to generate substantial cost and investment synergies across SG&A and CAPEX after closing. Regulatory review continues in other jurisdictions, including a Phase 2 investigation by the UK Competition and Markets Authority, with a final CMA decision due by April 19.
Shutterstock describes how the UK Competition and Markets Authority has issued a provisional decision on its proposed merger with Getty Images. The authority does not expect the deal to create competition issues in the global stock content market but has provisionally found possible harm in the UK editorial market.
The company states it disagrees with the CMA’s concerns about a “substantial lessening of competition” in UK editorial content and argues the analysis does not reflect actual market conditions or alternatives for customers. Shutterstock plans to respond within the CMA’s timeline and continues to cooperate with the U.S. Department of Justice as its separate review of the merger progresses.
