The Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (HSR) requires parties to transactions meeting certain size thresholds to make notification filings with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice and to observe a waiting period before closing. On January 22, 2024, the FTC announced revisions to the reporting thresholds under HSR. Adjustments to the HSR reporting and exemption thresholds are made each year based on annual changes in the Gross National Product.

The revised thresholds will become effective on March 6, 2024 (30 days after their publication in the Federal Register) and will apply to any transaction that will close on or after that date.
