This is what is called as a slump sale -Indian companies have been doing this for many years

Buy assets instead of companies (both from anti trust & to skirt any company related issues, legal /financial) 

But this is super tax inefficient 

Long term capital gains is triggered when you buy shares but in this case, money is received in the hands of the company instead of shareholders

So how will company pay out to employees- One Time bonus & this will be taxed at highest tax rates -40-50% if you are in CA

Worse if you are investors coz you have to pay tax at multiple levels
- First pay corporate Tax
- Then Dividend Distribution tax
- Easy 20-30% less proceeds compared to sale of shares

Maybe the whole Anti trust is to pay more taxes to the govt
