ICC Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:ICCH), a $68 million market cap company specializing in fire, marine, and casualty insurance, announced today that it has entered into a third amendment to its existing merger agreement with Mutual Capital Holdings, Inc. and Mutual Capital Merger Sub, Inc.

According to InvestingPro data, the company has demonstrated solid performance with 14% revenue growth over the last twelve months. This amendment extends the deadline for the completion of their merger from today to March 17, 2025.

The original agreement, dated June 8, 2024, along with subsequent amendments made on October 11, 2024, and December 31, 2024, outlined the terms under which Mutual Capital Holdings, Inc. would acquire ICC Holdings, Inc. The latest extension indicates that the companies have agreed to push the "Outside Date," the deadline by which the merger must be completed, to mid-March of this year.

The details of the merger agreement and its amendments have been attached as exhibits to the company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These documents are available for public review and provide a comprehensive overview of the merger terms.

The extension of the merger deadline may offer both entities additional time to satisfy closing conditions or obtain necessary approvals. The merger is part of a strategic move that could potentially benefit both organizations, though the specific reasons for the extension have not been disclosed in the announcement.
