You have to go back to assisted living.
Acquisitions might have a “budget” in terms of a targeted amount that a company wants to invest in growth (or technology or whatever the acquisition is aimed at), but they don’t hit a company’s profit/loss statement.
That’s because unlike income/expense, an acquisition is deemed to be just turing one asset into another. E.g., turning $100 of cash into $100 of acquired entity. From a balance sheet perspective, the company is no better or worse off.
For that reason acquisitions aren’t driven by financial reporting periods. They’re pretty much irrelevant for that purpose.

I feel like making a bet that Microsoft will have acquired Capcom by December 31 2022. Don’t reply to this post

Around E3 2018 were some rumbling that Microsoft is about to announce the acquisition of Capcom. But after the success of Monster Hunter World Capcom backed out. People on the GianBomb and Vice Podcast hinted this scenario in their post-E3 podcasts. I think even Jez talked about it.
