根據(jù)臺灣金融監(jiān)督管理委員會的一份報告，聯(lián)發(fā)科(MediaTek Inc.)已經(jīng)撤回回合并開曼晨星“發(fā)行新股”乙案，業(yè)內(nèi)猜測此舉是由于在合并晨星半導(dǎo)體（MStar Semiconductor Inc.）時遇到阻礙，原因是中韓兩國政府遲遲不批準(zhǔn)。
聯(lián)發(fā)科在一份聲明中表示，撤回申請是因?yàn)榕cMStar的合并案生效日已經(jīng)由原定的2013年1月1日推遲到5月1日。造成推遲的原因是，聯(lián)發(fā)科希望早點(diǎn)將發(fā)行新股案送交主管機(jī)關(guān)審核，但在之前必須拿到中韓兩國政府的許可，因此主管機(jī)關(guān)也希望聯(lián)發(fā)科可以將此案主動撤回，等中韓政府同意合并后，再重新送件。
據(jù)臺灣媒體報道，2012年8月聯(lián)發(fā)科已經(jīng)收購了晨星半導(dǎo)體48%的股份，而這次動作目的在于以更小的代價收購其剩余股份。
但是聯(lián)發(fā)科強(qiáng)調(diào)，合并晨星最終進(jìn)度并沒有改變。
晨星由于手機(jī)芯片開發(fā)進(jìn)度已經(jīng)落后聯(lián)發(fā)科兩代，且面臨中國大陸展訊和RDA的激烈競爭，受此消息沖擊立即跌停。

聯(lián)發(fā)科去年6月22日宣布以換股和現(xiàn)金形式分2階段全部收購晨星，總金額預(yù)計(jì)超過1150億元新臺幣，是IC業(yè)界近來最大的合并案之一。兩家合并需要通過臺灣、中國內(nèi)地、美國、韓國和日本審查，其中美國和日本將較為容易，但由于兩家公司合并后在中國內(nèi)地電視芯片市場擁有很高的市場份額，且晨星是三星的重要供應(yīng)商，通過中韓政府審核難度會較大，中國大陸和韓國的審查將是兩家能否順利合并的關(guān)鍵。
聯(lián)發(fā)科在2012年6月底向中國大陸和韓國公平交易審核委員會遞交了合并申請文件，按照一般流程，10月底就可以獲準(zhǔn)，但目前聯(lián)發(fā)科仍未獲得中韓政府批準(zhǔn)。

MediaTek-MStar merger delayed
Peter Clarke
LONDON – Fabless consumer chip company MediaTek Inc. has withdrawn an application to raise cash by issuing shares, casting doubt on a plan to merge with local Taiwan rival MStar Semiconductor Inc., according to reports referencing Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission as their source.
MediaTek (Hsinchu, Taiwan) said in a statement that it had withdrawn the new share application because it was postponing the merger to May 1 from the previous target date of Jan. 1, according to a Focus Taiwan report.
MediaTek successfully concluded a tender offer to acquire a 48 percent stake in MStar (Hsinchu, Taiwan) in August 2012. The latest moves were intended to complete the acquisition of the smaller rival, a Focus Taiwan report said.
MediaTek and MStar are both public companies and leading fabless chip companies. Both make SoCs that go in smartphones and other consumer and multimedia electronics. Mediatek had planned to issue about 221 million shares for the purpose of acquiring MStar.
The delay has been caused by an inability to secure approval for the deal from foreign countries, including China and South Korea, which have cited anti-trust concerns, the Focus Taiwan report said.
MediaTek is expected to re-apply to issue new shares once it has received the approvals it deems necessary although there are concerns that the plan could fall apart, the reports said.
