AppLovin is in discussions to acquire TikTok, according to sources cited by CNBC.

The Trump administration has been seeking a US-based owner for TikTok and is aware of AppLovin’s interest. This comes as TikTok faces a potential US ban by Apr. 5, due to a national security law requiring ByteDance to divest its American operations.

The deadline was originally set for Jan. 19, but was extended by 75 days.

It remains unclear if any US entities, including AppLovin, will gain control of TikTok’s non-Chinese operations.

ByteDance has been actively seeking a US buyer amid growing national security scrutiny.

AppLovin has not commented on the discussions.
