Not sure how a public company gets to buy/takeover a private company for an undisclosed amount. Reporting obligations getting worse!
If the cost is not material to the acquirer, they don’t have to disclose. If they paid 10mm or 40mm for hanweck it doesn’t change anyone’s valuation of the company.
Except we don't know if they don't disclose. Maybe they paid $1B or $10B. Doubtful but there should be some level of reporting obligations required.
If it were 1bn or 10bn, they would be obligated to disclose it. It’s possible they will disclose the combined sum in their annual report.
