Zebra extends tender offer for Fargo, again

VERNON HILLS, Ill.-Zebra Technologies Corp. has extended its tender offer for buying card printer manufacturer Fargo Electronics. According to the companies, the extension is necessary because an applicable antitrust review waiting period has yet to expire or terminate. The $86 million deal is currently being reviewed by the Federal Trade Commission. The two companies announced a merger agreement last summer, but the deal has yet to go through. Officials from Zebra say they intend to extend the offer until the Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust review waiting period expires or is terminated, subject to the provisions of the acquisitions agreement.
