FILE - Nippon Steel Corporation's logo is displayed on a sign outside its headquarters in Tokyo on Nov. 26, 2021. Nippon Steel said Friday, May 3, 2024, it has postponed the expected closing of its $14.1 billion takeover of U.S. Steel by three months after the U.S. Department of Justice requested more documentation related to the deal. “Nippon Steel will continue to fully cooperate with the examination of the relevant authorities,” it said in a statement.

The new timing could push the closing beyond the election, but Nippon Steel denied the delay was related to that.
