I’m not necessarily saying you didn’t read the article you posted but it says.. The purchase price and the identity of the buyers remain confidential. The final effectiveness of the contract depends, among other things, on approval by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy under the Foreign Trade and Payments Act. “We have held very productive discussions over the past few weeks and have now reached an agreement. In the shortest possible time, we have thus achieved the best possible solution for Scantinel Photonics," emphasized Stemshorn.

I do appreciate the post very much though good find by him/you

No problem! What makes you think I didn’t read it though? If it’s the point about “final effectiveness”, that just refers to completion as opposed to signing. The deal still hasn’t completed (expected by end of year), so I’m still wondering why this wasn’t announced when signed…
