Item 7.01. | Regulation FD |
The information in this Form 8-K that is furnished under Item 7.01. Regulation FD shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
As previously announced, on February 19, 2016, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Motorola Solutions UK Acquisition Company Limited, a company registered in England and Wales, completed its acquisition (the Acquisition) of the entire issued share capital of Guardian Digital Communications Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (Guardian Limited), from Guardian Digital Communications Holdings Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. Guardian Limited is the parent company of Airwave Solutions Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (Airwave).
Following a determination by the United Kingdoms Competition and Markets Authority (the CMA) that it has jurisdiction to review the Acquisition, on May 5, 2016 the CMA announced the commencement of its formal review of the Acquisition. The CMA now has 40 working days (which expire on July 1, 2016) to determine whether the Acquisition is expected to lead to a substantial lessening of competition in the United Kingdom. The fact of such review does not suggest that the CMA has any substantive concerns in relation to the Acquisition, and Motorola expects that the CMAs review will conclude positively by the end of the second quarter of 2016.
