We expect Bayer's acquisition of Monsanto to receive regulatory approval and close in 2018.
The European Commission announced it is pushing back the review deadline for the Monsanto-Bayer deal to early March 2018, roughly a month and a half after the previous deadline. Shares of Monsanto have slipped 4% to $117 per share since Oct. 13 when Bayer announced a transaction-related divestiture and now trade at a modest 9% discount to Bayer's all-cash take-out offer of $128. We think the recent selloff is likely due to investors assigning a lower probability that the deal will close.
