Form SC TO-C filings contain pre-commencement written communications related to tender offers filed under Regulation 14D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These filings allow bidders and other parties to publicly communicate about a planned tender offer before it is formally commenced, provided that all such written communications are filed with the SEC under cover of Schedule TO no later than the date of the communication. The dataset includes all Form SC TO-C filings submitted to EDGAR from January 2000 to present. For each accession number, a metadata file and all documents in the original EDGAR submission are included except image files. Each filing typically contains the pre-commencement communication itself, such as a press release or investor letter announcing a planned tender offer, a prominent legend advising security holders to read the formal tender offer statement when available, and standard filer identification including CIK and filing date.
