SEC filingMasterBrand expects to close its merger with American Woodmark on May 28, 2026, after FTC clearance and expiration of the HSR waiting period.
MasterBrand, Inc. announced that on May 22, 2026, it received notice from the Federal Trade Commission that the agency closed its investigation of the company's proposed merger with American Woodmark Corporation. Additionally, the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act has expired. These developments clear the primary regulatory hurdle for the transaction. MasterBrand now expects to close the acquisition on or about May 28, 2026, subject to other customary closing conditions. The merger agreement was originally entered into on August 5, 2025, and will result in American Woodmark becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of MasterBrand. The combined company is expected to benefit from increased scale and operational synergies, though specific financial projections have not been updated in this filing. Investors should monitor for the actual closing and any related integration updates.
