Liveperson ( (LPSN) ) has issued an update.
LivePerson said its planned acquisition by SoundHound AI advanced on July 20, 2026, when Bulgarian regulators granted foreign investment clearance, following approvals from Italy and Canada on June 25, Germany on June 29, and the U.K. on July 1. With all regulatory approvals now secured, the dual-step merger structure will leave LivePerson as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound, though the deal still depends on remaining closing conditions, including a shareholder vote.
The completion of regulatory reviews across multiple jurisdictions removes a key hurdle for the transaction, reducing uncertainty around cross-border scrutiny of AI and customer engagement technologies. However, risks remain for investors and other stakeholders, as the companies caution that the merger could still be delayed or derailed by failure to obtain stockholder approval, potential litigation, integration challenges, or other operational and regulatory factors cited in their risk disclosures.
The most recent analyst rating on (LPSN) stock is a Hold
with a $3.00 price target.

Spark’s Take on LPSN Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, LPSN is a Neutral.
The score is held down primarily by weak financial performance (multi-year revenue decline, ongoing losses, negative cash flow, and negative equity with high debt). Technicals also weigh on the rating given the strong downtrend and negative momentum. The main support comes from the acquisition-related corporate event, which could improve the outlook if completed, but carries approval and restructuring risk; valuation adds limited help because earnings are negative and there is no dividend.
