Release-to-release sector shifts aggregate each edition's exact published rows inside stable broad NAICS sectors. They are descriptive changes in the federal review pipeline, not merger rates, market-power measures, or causal estimates. Industry codes and labels that enter, exit, or change between tables remain explicit rather than being silently crosswalked.

FY2023 / exact Table XI fields

Clearances and Second Requests are administrative review stages. Their counts and row-level rates do not indicate liability, remedy, competitive harm, or agency effectiveness.

An intra-industry transaction means the acquiring and acquired persons both reported revenue in the same 3-digit NAICS code. It does not establish a horizontal overlap, relevant antitrust market, or competitive effect.

Classification passport

Exact labels before analytical joins

Code identity is not a silent crosswalk

The release label, adjacent-release label, and Census 2022 label are shown independently. A matching code supports navigation; it does not prove statistical continuity when labels or source universes differ.

The FY2023 and FY2024 acquired-entity tables classify adjusted HSR transactions by 3-digit NAICS. They describe the federal review pipeline, not industry-wide merger rates, market definitions, competitive harm, or agency performance. Published row shares are independently rounded to one decimal place and therefore sum to 100.3% and 101.5%, respectively, while each official table total remains 100.0%.
