Merck KGaA acquires SIAL for $140/sh in cash, a 37% premium to Friday’s closing price:

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/merck-acquire-sigma-aldrich-enhance-102800365.html

The deal value is $17B. Together with the Millipore unit Merck acquired for $7.2B in 2010 (#msg-47249493), SIAL will create an imposing life-sciences “tools” business under the Merck KGaA umbrella.

A CC was held today at 8am ET.
