Subject: ForeignAcquisition Question
Mike:
My client mayacquire a foreign company that started operations in November 2007. Assume allother HSR thresholds are met. Also assume the target has no assets located inthe U.S. The question I have is whether, in light of the fact that target beganoperations in the last 2 months of its last fiscal year, we look only to thelast 2 months of the target's last fiscal year to determine whether the salesthreshold for the 802.50 and 802.51 exemptions are met, or whether we considerits sales into the U.S. from November 2007 to present.
