According to the vaguely legalese press release, SE "cannot be optimistic about the future of this significant resource, given the current circumstances surrounding TECMO" -- and thus they wish to save Tecmo by purchasing them. Tecmo would retain its existing brand and company organization, like Taito.
Tecmo's board of directors has until September 4 to respond to this offer. Should they fail to make a decision ... Square Enix won't buy them. That sounds anticlimactic, but without some fresh Dragon Quest money Tecmo's probably toast.

This would be an interesting move but not completely surprising!

I hope they won't... :(
I don't really like Square Enix (though there are parts of the team I do love), and I'd be horrified if they changed the entire meaning of some Tecmo games. :( :(
I ain't the hugest Tecmo fan, but I love their games.
