Verizon agreed to acquire Yahoo's internet properties last year for $4.8 billion but regulatory scrutiny on a data breach reportedly put a pause to the deal.
According to a Bloomberg report on Wednesday, the two companies are close to finalizing a new agreement in which Verizon would pay $250 million less than the original $4.8 billion agreed.
Background

The pending deal between Verizon and Yahoo was originally expected to close in the first quarter of 2017 but pushed to the second quarter. In addition, the two companies renegotiated the deal but some Wall Street analysts brushed off any concerns and suggested that the final price tag of the deal would be adjusted by 2 percent.
