Icahn Seeking FTC Approval To Buy 50% Of Herbalife

(RTTNews) - Billionaire investor Carl Icahn said he has asked the Federal Trade Commission or FTC for approval to purchase up to a 50% stake in Herbalife (HLF).

Icahn made his comments late Tuesday at the Delivering Alpha conference in New York hosted by CNBC and Institutional Investor.

Icahn said he has weighed launching a tender offer for Herbalife and reinforced his opposition to fellow billionaire Bill Ackman, who has called Herbalife's business model a pyramid scheme.

Shares of Herbalife were up 2.36% in after hours trade following Icahn's statement.
