Details

Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a complaint to block HPE's proposed acquisition of Juniper. HPE and Juniper strongly oppose the DOJ's decision and plan to vigorously defend the transaction in court, asserting that the acquisition is pro-competitive and will benefit customers by enhancing innovation and competition in the networking market. The companies highlight that the transaction has been approved by antitrust regulators in 14 jurisdictions and that the DOJ's claims are disconnected from market realities.
