Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 12 / Thursday, January 19, 2023 / Notices
khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
2017–2019,1 FTC staff projects an
average of 7,096 non-index filings per
year for fiscal years 2023–2025, the time
period for which PRA clearance will be
requested from OMB.2 For index filings,
FTC staff projects an average of 12 index
filings for fiscal years 2023–2025, based
on a rough average of 12 such filings per
year over fiscal years 2017–2019.
Retaining prior assumptions, FTC staff
estimates that non-index filings require,
on average, approximately 37 hours per
filing and that index filings require an
average of two hours per filing.3
On rare occasions, a transaction for
which the HSR filing is automatically
withdrawn during the merger review
process (due to the parties’ Securities
and Exchange Commission filing
indicating that the transaction has been
terminated) could be subsequently
restarted. Based on experience to date,
this would occur approximately once
every fifteen years, i.e., a historical
frequency of 0.067 transactions per year.
FTC staff believes that this new filing
would require the same work and
diligence as any new non-index filing.
Assuming, then, an average of 37 hours
for one transaction, when applied to a
historical frequency of 0.067, this
amounts to an annual average of three
hours, rounded up, for a withdrawn
transaction later restarted.
Thus, the total estimated hours
burden is 262,579 hours [(7,096 nonindex filings × 37 hours/each) + (12
index filings × two hours/each) + (one
withdrawn transaction later restarted ×
three hours))].
1 Due to the exceptional volatility in the number
of filings in fiscal years 2020 and 2021, data for
these years was not included in the estimation of
the annual growth rate of filings.
2 The number of non-index filings and the
projected annual average of non-index filings are
updated from the estimates provided in the
Commission’s August 2022 Notice. See 87 FR
52569, 52570 (2022) (estimating that the FTC would
receive 6,580 non-index filings in fiscal year 2022
and projecting an average of 7,160 non-index filings
per year for fiscal years 2023–2025).
3 Index filings pertain to certain transactions
described in Sections 7A(c)(6) and (c)(8) of the
Clayton Act that are subject to the approval of other
agencies and are exempt from the requirements of
the premerger notification program. Index filings
are incorporated into the FTC’s currently cleared
burden estimates, because the parties to these
exempt transactions must file copies of the
information submitted to the other agencies with
the Commission and the Assistant Attorney
General. However, the task of filing a copy of
information provided to another agency requires
significantly less time than the preparation of a
filing for a non-exempt transaction.

Estimated Total Annual Labor Cost
Using the burden hours (262,579)
estimated above and applying an
estimated average of $460/hour for
executive and/or attorney
compensation, FTC staff estimates that
the total labor cost associated with the
HSR Rules and the Notification and
Report Form is approximately
$120,786,340.
Estimated Total Annual Non-Labor Cost
The applicable requirements impose
minimal start-up costs, as businesses
subject to the HSR Rules generally have
or obtain necessary equipment for other
business purposes. Staff believes that
the above requirements necessitate
ongoing, regular training so that covered
entities stay current and have a clear
understanding of federal mandates, but
such training would be subsumed
within the ordinary training that
employees receive.
