The Agreement and Plan of Merger between Hibbett, Inc., Genesis Holdings, Inc., Steps Merger Sub, Inc., and JD Sports Fashion plc, entered into on April 23, 2024, took a step forward as the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act expired on June 7, 2024, satisfying one of the closing conditions for the merger. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2024, subject to other closing conditions, including stockholder approval, absence of legal restraints, accuracy of representations and warranties, compliance with covenants, and absence of a Material Adverse Effect.

Hibbett filed a preliminary proxy statement on May 30, 2024, and urges stockholders to read the definitive proxy statement when it becomes available, as it will contain important information about the transaction. The filing contains cautionary statements regarding forward-looking statements and various risk factors related to the merger. Hibbett and certain of its directors, executive officers, and employees may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies.

While the expiration of the HSR waiting period represents a small step forward, the merger still has several hurdles to clear in the coming months before it can be consummated. It will be important to monitor for the definitive proxy statement to be filed, as that will contain the detailed information stockholders need to make an informed vote on the merger. The various risk factors and cautionary language around forward-looking statements also highlight the inherent uncertainty in getting the deal closed.

Stockholders and other interested parties should continue to follow developments closely as the merger process unfolds.
