New Financial Thresholds For Pre-Merger Notification For 2024 Announced

On January 22, 2024, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) announced new jurisdictional thresholds for the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act (“HSR”).

The FTC enforces the federal antitrust laws, specifically Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1, 2; Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45; and Sections 3, 7, and 8 of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 14, 18, 19.

Pre-Merger Notification Changes. Section 7 of the Clayton Act prohibits mergers and acquisitions where “in any line of commerce or in any activity affecting commerce in any section of the country, the effect of such acquisition may be substantially to lessen competition, or to tend to create a monopoly.”

Remember, unless an exemption applies, the parties to the merger must file with the FTC and the Department of Justice a Premerger Notification Form and pay the filing fee if the transaction meets three tests:

  • the Commerce Test – If either party is engaged in commerce or in any activity affecting commerce;
    (2) the Size of Transaction Test – see chart below; and
    (3) the Size of Person Test – see chart below.

The FTC is required to adjust the thresholds annually based on the change in gross national product. For 2024, the thresholds are:

TEST

THRESHOLD

Size of Transaction

$119.5 Million

Size of Person

$23.9 Million and $239 Million

Transaction Size above which Size of Person Test Does Not Apply

$478 Million

Notification Thresholds

$119.5 Million

$239 Million

$1.195 Billion

25% of stock worth $2.39 Billion

Filing Fee Changes. The FTC also raised the filing fees for the Premerger Notification:

Size of Transaction

Filing Fee

Greater than $119.5 Million but less than $173.3 Million

$30,000.00

At least $173.3 Million but less than $526.5 Million

$105,000.00

At least $536.5 Million but less than $1.073 Billion

$260,000.00

At least $1.073 Billion but less than $2.0 Billion

$415,000.00

At least $2.0 Billion but less than $5.0 Billion

$830,000.00

$5.0 Billion or more

$2,335,000.00

Interlocking Director Changes. Section 8 of the Clayton Act makes it illegal, subject to certain exceptions, for a person to serve as a director or officer for two competing companies when the companies' profits or competitive sales exceed threshold limits. The FTC increased the thresholds so that an interlocking director would be illegal if each company has capital, surplus, and undivided profits aggregating more than $48,559,000 (Section 8(a)(1)), unless one of the companies' competitive sales against the other are less than $4,855,900 (Section 8(a)(2)(A)) or other de minimis exemptions apply (Section 8(a)(2)(B) and (C)).

Penalty Increase. The maximum civil penalty for violations of the HSR increased from $50,120 per day to $51,744 per day.

Effective Dates. The increased HSR thresholds and filing fees will be effective in late February 2024 (30 days after publication in the Federal Register). The increased civil penalties became effective January 10, 2024 for civil penalties assessed after the effective date, including civil penalties for which the associated violation predated the effective date.

SEC Issues New Cybersecurity Rule, In Effect For December 31st Year End Companies

On July 26, 2023, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued the Final Rule on Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, Governance, and Incident Disclosure (the “Cybersecurity Rule”). The Cybersecurity Rule requires public companies to disclose both material cybersecurity incidents they experience and, on an annual basis, material information regarding their cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance.

Companies are just starting to file their Form 10-Ks with their cybersecurity disclosures set forth in new Item 1(c) pursuant to new Regulation SK, Item 106.

New Regulation S-K Item 106 requires registrants to describe their processes, if any, for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats, as well as whether any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the registrant. Item 106 also requires registrants to describe the board of directors’ oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats and management’s role and expertise in assessing and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. (Emphasis mine.)

Foreign private issuers have similar disclosure obligations in new Item 16K of the Form 20-F.

Note that companies are enhancing their cybersecurity Risk Factors along with this new disclosure.

With respect to the annual Form 10-K and Form 20-F cybersecurity disclosures, all registrants (including Smaller Reporting Companies) must provide such disclosures beginning with their annual reports for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2023.

The disclosures being filed now touch on the following subjects:

  • Which entities within the company address cybersecurity risk (i.e., the senior management person who heads up the process; the Board of Directors; the Audit Committee, etc.).
  • Whether the company has a cybersecurity risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors (SRFC should be drafting such policies for clients);
  • What the cybersecurity risk management policy covers;
  • How often cybersecurity threats are assessed;
  • How the company manages the risks (e.g., end-user training, layered defenses, identifying and protecting critical assets, strengthening monitoring and alerting, and engaging experts).

SEC Issues New SPAC/De-SPAC Rules: A Definitive Guide

On January 24, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules relating to special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). This email just touches on the material aspects of the final rules which consist of 581 pages. You can see the final rule here: https://www.sec.gov/files/rules/final/2024/33-11265.pdf

Definitions:

  • De-SPAC transaction” means a business combination, such as a merger, consolidation, exchange of securities, acquisition of assets, reorganization, or similar transaction, involving a special purpose acquisition company and one or more target companies (contemporaneously, in the case of more than one target company).
  • Special purpose acquisition company means a company that has: (1) indicated that its business plan is to: (i) conduct a primary offering of securities that is not subject to the requirements of Rule 419 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”); (ii) complete a business combination, such as a merger, consolidation, exchange of securities, acquisition of assets, reorganization, or similar transaction, with one or more target companies within a specified time frame; and (iii) return proceeds from the offering and any concurrent offering (if such offering or concurrent offering intends to raise proceeds) to its security holders if the company does not complete a business combination, such as a merger, consolidation, exchange of securities, acquisition of assets, reorganization, or similar transaction, with one or more target companies within the specified time frame; or (2) represented that it pursues or will pursue a special purpose acquisition company strategy.
  • “SPAC sponsor” means any entity and/or person primarily responsible for organizing, directing, or managing the business and affairs of a special purpose acquisition company, excluding, if an entity is a SPAC sponsor, officers and directors of the special purpose acquisition company who are not affiliates of any such entity that is a SPAC sponsor.
  • “Target company” means an operating company, business or assets.

Registered Offerings by SPACs: The new rules cover: (i) the forepart of the registration statement and the prospectus cover page; (ii) a new summary section; and (iii) a new dilution table.

SPAC sponsor; conflicts of interest: The focus is on identifying the SPAC sponsors and their compensation, including: (i) identifying the controlling persons; (ii) the extent to which the SPAC sponsor, its affiliates, and the promoters are involved in other special purpose acquisition companies; (iii) any agreement between the SPAC sponsor and the SPAC, its officers, directors, or affiliates with respect to determining whether to proceed with a de-SPAC transaction; (iv) the nature (e.g., cash, shares of stock, warrants and rights) and amounts of all compensation to be paid and whether any shares have been transferred, surrendered or cancelled; (v) any actual or potential conflicts of interest; and (vi) any fiduciary duties of each officer and director of the SPAC to other companies.

De-SPAC Transactions: The new rules cover: (i) the forepart of the registration statement and the prospectus cover page: (A) whether the SPAC has received an appraisal; (B) whether any material financing transactions that have occurred since the SPAC IPO or will occur in connection with the consummation of the de-SPAC transaction; (C) the compensation to be received in the de-SPAC transaction; and (D) any material conflicts of interest that have or may occur; (ii) a new summary section; and (iii) a new dilution table.

Background of and reasons for the de-SPAC transaction; terms of the de-SPAC transaction; effects: The registration statement must cover, among other things: (i) how the de-SPAC transaction came about; (ii) the material terms of the transaction; (iii) the financing of the transaction; (iv) differences in the rights of the stockholders of the two companies; (iv) the accounting treatment of the transaction; (v) the tax consequences of the transaction; and (vi) any material interests in the de-SPAC transaction or any related financing transaction held by the SPAC sponsor or the SPAC’s officers or directors.

Board determination about the de-SPAC transaction: Requires disclosure of: (i) whether the SPAC Board found the deal advisable and in the stockholders’ best interests; (ii) the factors used by the Board to reach their decision; (iii) whether the de-SPAC transaction is structured so that approval of at least a majority of unaffiliated security holders of the SPAC is required; (iii)  whether the Board has retained an unaffiliated representative to act solely on behalf of unaffiliated security holders for purposes of negotiating the terms of the de-SPAC transaction; and (iv) whether the de-SPAC transaction was approved by a majority of the SPAC board who are not employees.

Reports, opinions, appraisals, and negotiations: Requires disclosure if the SPAC or SPAC sponsor has received any report, opinion (other than an opinion of counsel) or appraisal from an outside party or an unaffiliated representative relating to the fairness and other matters of the de-SPAC transaction, and if so, summarize it.

Tender offer filing obligations: If the SPAC files a Schedule TO  for any redemption of securities offered to security holders, such Schedule TO must provide additional information from the Proxy Rules and the tender offer must be done in compliance with the Issuer Tender Offer Rules.

Projections: If projections are used in the registration statement, the SPAC must disclose their purpose, assumptions used, and whether the target company has approved them, among other things.

Forward Looking Statements: The rules adopt a definition of “blank check company” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (“PSLRA”) that make the safe harbor for forward-looking statements under the PSLRA unavailable for such blank check companies, including SPACs.

Interactive Data File: The disclosure must comply with Rule 405 of Regulation S-T and the EDGAR Filer Manual. This requirement will become effective on or about May 28, 2025 (490 days after publication in the Federal Register).

Shell Company Mergers. The Final Rule also deals with shell company mergers. Under Rule 145a in certain business combination transactions where reporting shell companies, including SPACs, are parties, the combined company will be required to register the deemed sale of its securities to the pre-transaction reporting shell company shareholders at the time of the business combination, unless there is an available exemption. Thus, the target company will be a co-issuer/co-registrant and its directors and officers will have to sign the registration statement and will be subject to liability under the securities laws.

Amendments to Regulation S-X: The final Rules amend financial statement requirements and the forms and schedules filed in connection with business combination transactions involving shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies), including de-SPAC transactions, to align more closely required disclosures about the target company with those required in a Form S-1 or F-1 for an IPO, including: (i) expanding the circumstances in which target companies may report two years, instead of three years, of audited financial statements; and (ii) further aligning the requirements for audited financial statements in these transactions with those required in a registered IPO.

Effective Date: Except as for the IDF rule, the rules become effective on or about May 28, 2024 (125 days after publication in the Federal Register).

Ross Carmel Quoted in Law360’s “Pent Up’ Demand For IPOs Could End Drought In 2024″

Press Release – New York, NY – January 4th, 2023 – Ross Carmel, partner of Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP, was quoted today in an informative article by Tom Zanki.

The article, titled “Pent Up’ Demand For IPOs Could End Drought In 2024”, examines the possibility of initial public offerings rebounding compared to the last two years, notably forecasting which organizations will join the market and which IPOs may accelerate.

“Which companies will jump first is yet another question. Capital markets attorneys will watch
whether a marquee name — financial payments startup Stripe Inc. has been rumored among
top IPO prospects for years — will open the door for more deals.

Stripe last raised $6.5 billion in a private round last March at a $50 billion valuation in a
financing that was largely designed to allow Stripe employees the ability to sell their equity.
Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP partner Ross Carmel noted that Stripe’s many private
investors will eventually want the liquidity that public markets provide.

Stripe was also reportedly on track to turn a profit in 2023, which could boost its appeal with
public investors. Stripe declined to comment on whether it is considering an IPO.

Ax well, when asked for his thoughts on how Stripe fares amongst the top IPOs, Ross had this to say:

“Stripe has probably the best opportunity to be the one to open the floodgates.”

Gregory Sichenzia Quoted in Private Banker International’s “Private Banking and Markets in 2024: What’s the Outlook?”

Press Release – New York, NY – December 26th, 2023Gregory Sichenzia, founding partner of Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP, was quoted today in an informative article by Patrick Brusnahan.

The article, titled “Private banking and markets in 2024: What’s the outlook?”, outlines a clear-cut set path for banking in the new year, and how interest and inflation will affect the projected outcome.

When contacted for an interview, Greg stated the following:

“In 2024, interest rates will continue to dominate headlines, but this time because of their stabilisation and decline, which will create a more active IPO and capital markets climate, as well as a big boost to the overall economy.

The resurgence of the IPO market is clear, as activity typically increases when the cost of capital gets cheaper, which ultimately needs to be deployed. In 2024, I expect Stripe will be the company that opens the markets and the floodgates because all of the private venture capital and banking money that’s gone into it over the past few years. If a deal with Stripe materialises, large caps will lead the way for opening up small caps.

We’ve already seen big companies performing much better. As I write this, stock markets in mid-December are hitting all-time highs. Right now, we see large cap companies (such as Amazon, Tesla and Google) succeed, and that will start to trickle down to smaller companies in the new year. This is due to investors making money in their portfolios off bigger investments, creating more risk capital available. History tells us when people start feeling more secure in bigger investments, the micro and mid-cap markets thrive.

Further, drops in interest rates also mean home buying will pick up again, which makes many bullish about real estate and broader capital markets.

All of this will result in more lending, which will affect the banking industry. People will be borrowing more money again because the cost of capital comes down. If no one is borrowing money, then they’re not making money. As JFK said, a rising tide lifts all boats.

Overall, we can anticipate that all sectors will improve in the new year. With interest rates and a presidential election year, I forecast a robust stock market and IPO market going into 2024.”

Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP’s Litigation Partner Scott Furst Wins First-Impression Victory For New Jersey Limited Liability Company’s Expulsion of Alleged Member

Press Release – New York, NY – November 20, 2023Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP Litigation Partner Scott Furst achieved a case of first-impression victory in the New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division on October 26, 2023, resolving a multi-year business litigation in which Mr. Furst earlier won a unanimous jury verdict and contract damages and all post-trial motions denying a new trial, denying judgment notwithstanding the jury verdict and granting the disassociation and expulsion of a purported member of a New Jersey limited liability company without valuation or buyout of the membership interest.  The underlying order of dissociation and expulsion is the first issued by a New Jersey trial court and also affirmed by the New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division since the State of New Jersey adopted the New Jersey Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act in 2012 (the “Act”) reaching all such issues.

The Act applies to every New Jersey limited liability company in effect before or after 2012.  The Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act has been adopted by nineteen (19) states, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, and Wyoming, and the District of Columbia.

On appeal, the Defendant, GreenbergFarrow Architecture, Inc., a global architecture, engineering, planning and development services firm with offices in the United States, Latin America and Asia, challenged the jury’s award of compensatory damages arising from Defendant’s abandonment of a new limited liability company, Engenuity Infrastructure, LLC, Defendant had agreed to support professionally and financially that was led by Plaintiff Jaclyn Flor.  The Appellate Division affirmed both liability and damages in favor of the Plaintiffs, an individual and the managing member of the limited liability company who had separated from her prior employment where she was an equity holder, to start Engenuity Infrastructure, LLC.  GreenbergFarrow also challenged the trial court’s declaratory judgment order directing GreenbergFarrow’s expulsion and dissociation from the limited liability company without valuation or compensation for its abandoned membership interest.

In affirming the disassociation and expulsion of GreenbergFarrow as a purported member, the Appellate Division cited the extensive trial record of documents and testimony that demonstrated that GreenberFarrow “ha[d] ignored the new business in which it claim[ed] an economic interest” when it “walked away” from the limited liability company many years earlier.

The New Jersey Supreme Court first issued controlling principles for dissociation and expulsion in 2016, in a case titled, IT Test, LLC v. Carroll, setting forth a high burden of proof for expulsion arising from a member’s “wrongful conduct” or conducting rendering it “not reasonably practicable” for the member to continue membership within the limited liability company.  In affirming the jury’s verdict and all of the trial court’s post-trial motions, including its decision not to award any compensation to the purported member that had abandoned the limited liability company, the Appellate Division emphasized that, “no provision of N.J.S.A. 42:2C-47 requires a court to award a dissociated member compensation when the member abandoned its interest and is expelled by court order for wrongful conduct. Subsection (c) provides a court ‘may’ order a sale of the expelled member’s interest, but only if, ‘in its discretion,’ the court determines that a sale ‘is required’ by some legal authority or would be equitable to all parties. N.J.S.A. 42:2C-47(c).”  Under the circumstances, the Appellate Division also held that the jury’s compensatory damages verdict against GreenbergFarrow also constituted a debt as to which GreenbergFarrow was obligated to pay.

Flor v. GreenbergFarrow Architecture Incorporated, No. A-2208-20, 2023 WL 7036278 (App. Div. Oct. 26, 2023).

About 1847 Holdings

1847 Holdings LLC (NYSE American:EFSH), a publicly traded diversified acquisition holding company, was founded by Ellery W. Roberts, a former partner of Parallel Investment Partners, Saunders Karp & Megrue, and Principal of Lazard Freres Strategic Realty Investors. 1847 Holdings’ investment thesis is that capital market inefficiencies have left the founders and/or stakeholders of many small business enterprises or lower-middle market businesses with limited exit options despite the intrinsic value of their business. Given this dynamic, 1847 Holdings can consistently acquire businesses it views as “solid” for reasonable multiples of cash flow and then deploy resources to strengthen the infrastructure and systems of those businesses in order to improve operations. These improvements may lead to a sale or IPO of an operating subsidiary at higher valuations than the purchase price and/or alternatively, an operating subsidiary may be held in perpetuity and contribute to 1847 Holdings’ ability to pay regular and special dividends to shareholders.
