Press Releases: Mergers and Acquisitions

If your company merges with or acquires another company, issue a press release. The release should be issued by the acquiring company or, in the case of a merger, the company whose name will be retained. The release should include an "About" section for each company, with the section for the company issuing the release appearing first. Include quotes from executives of both companies, describing the advantages to the transaction and when the transaction is expected to close.
