(Alliance News) - Arnoldo Mondadori Spa announced on Friday that it had received notification from the Antitrust Authority of its authorization to acquire 51 percent of Star Shop Distribuzione Srl, a company operating in the distribution of third-party publishers in the comic book store channel and in the management of outlets - direct and franchised - in the same segment.

The transaction, therefore, can continue its course.

Mondadori's stock is down 0.7 percent at EUR2.11 per share.
