They set the deadline with the approximate time they needed to finish. Things don't always go perfectly, but I don't think it is a big deal if they wait until the deadline to announce the merger. Strategically that is very smart, considering everyone's eyes will be focused on that day, whereas if they did it today or some other time less people would be watching.
