UPDATE 1-US FTC seeks additional information on Walmart and Vizio's $2.3 bln deal
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has asked for more information from Vizio and Walmart regarding their proposed $2.3 billion deal, the smart-TV maker said on Tuesday. Walmart had proposed to buy Vizio for $11.50 per share in cash in February, in another bet on the retailer's fast-growing U.S. advertising business, Walmart Connect, and gaining access to Vizio's SmartCast operating system, which streams ad-supported content on its devices. The big-box retailer had said in March it had notified two U.S. antitrust agencies it would withdraw and refile a certain review application for its planned acquisition of Vizio, to give the regulators more time to review the deal.

Items will be priced from under $2 to under $15, with 70% of the 300 products on offer falling below the $5 mark, Walmart said in a statement.
