NortonLifeLock Stocks Slid by 5.5%

The stocks for NortonLifeLock have reportedly experienced a dip in premarket trading. The dip comes following news of NortonLifeLock’s new endeavor. According to the reports, NortonLifeLock has revealed that it is in the process of acquiring Avast.

Avast is also a cybersecurity software platform that has originated in the United Kingdom and it is a competitor of NortonLifeLock. The announcement suggests that NortonLifeLock is in the process of acquiring Avast and the deal may get locked at $8.6 billion.

However, the regulatory authorities in the United Kingdom are closely monitoring the recent deal between NortonLifeLock and Avast. There are confirmed reports that the UK-based regulators have already launched a probe that is going to carry out a much deeper analysis on the deal.

Following the announcement, the officials at NortonLifeLock also made a statement in regards to the matter. According to reports, the officials at NortonLifeLock are not going to provide any kind of remedy from their end to the regulatory authorities. Instead, they have stated that the regulators can carry out their investigation through the probe.

Lands’ End Shares Dip by 9.5%

The shares for Lands’ End reportedly experienced a dip in the premarket trading. The apparel retailer experienced the dip after it shared its earnings report for the fourth quarter. Lands’ End revealed it generated earnings worth 21 cents in the fourth quarter of 2021.

However, the analysts had estimated that Lands’ End would generate earnings worth 31 cents share. This meant that Lands’ End was 10 cents short in achieving the earnings for the fourth quarter of 2021.
