Nvidia’s $40 billion bid to acquire Arm has officially ended, Softbank announced on Monday citing “significant regulatory challenges.” 

The deal, announced in September 2020, faced regulatory scrutiny in the U.S., UK, and EU, and in December of last year, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission sued to halt the transaction, arguing that Nvidia would gain too much power purchasing a company whose chip designs are used in rival products and across various industries.

Also displeased with the blockbuster purchase were Nvidia’s rivals, some of which reportedly went so far as to actively work with regulators to crush the deal. Consumer tech heavyweights Microsoft, Qualcomm, Intel, and Amazon are among those who rely on Arm’s chip technology and took issue with the acquisition. Nvidia said Arm would “continue to operate its open-licensing model while maintaining its global customer neutrality,” but that promise failed to reassure its rivals.
