Following a UK appeals court judgement, Meta’s Giphy acquisition is likely to remain stalled

An appeals tribunal in the United Kingdom affirmed an earlier finding directing Meta (Facebook’s parent company) to unwind its acquisition of Giphy in a decision issued on Tuesday. The decision comes more than six months after the initial CMA finding and more than two years after Meta first announced its ambition to acquire the company.
