Acquiring PERMCO
Acquiring PERMCO is the PERMCO of another company linked to a distribution. If the Acquiring PERMNO is nonzero and represents an associated security, Acquiring PERMCO is set to the PERMCO of that security. If Acquiring PERMNO is less than 1000, then Acquiring PERMCO can still be set. In this case, it represents a link to a company tracked by CRSP rather than a specific issue. For example, if a company pays cash to shareholders in a merger, then the Acquiring PERMCO is set to the PERMCO of that company.
Acquiring PERMCO is zero if not applicable, unknown, or associated with a company not tracked by CRSP. Data in this field is incomplete prior to 1985.
