I'm slightly surprised that FUNimation managed to secure the licensing for Claymore first.
I was expecting that ADV films would get it, since after all ADV has licensed quite a number of terror and/or violent anime series like were the case of Elfen Lied and Mamono Hunter Yohko among others in the past.
However, due to the recent setback that ADV is experiencing right now is quite understandable.
Ok. FUNi has acquired the license, hence, there would be a possibility that maybe or not Claymore gets to air in Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block in a future.
It remained unlicensed for about 4 1/2 months after the last episode was broadcasted in Japan, and before the licensing was announced today.
