A Delaware judge has ordered Verisk Analytics to pursue completing its $2.35 billion acquisition of AccuLynx, reversing Verisk's prior exit. The decision came more than seven months after Verisk said it pulled the plug, potentially rekindling strategic value from roofing-software exposure if the deal closes. Key execution risks include financing and regulatory approvals while AccuLynx remains a private target.
