The book includes a new chapter on China, and the “Experts Speak” chapter features all new interviewees. David Feldman is one of the country’s leading experts on reverse mergers, self-filings, and other alternatives to IPOs.

Download or read book Reverse Merger Waves Market Timing and Managerial Behaviour written by Igor Semenenko and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines timing of reverse mergers (takeovers) and behaviour of managers of firms that go public in reverse mergers. Results suggest that small private firms go public through mergers with financially distressed firms when market conditions are unfavourable, whereas reverse takeovers in which participating public company is a going concern are procyclical. Managers of private firms that go public through a reverse takeover mechanism - both small and large - sell overvalued equity upon merger completion. Raising capital through equity issuance and use of equity to redeem debt is critical for survival of small firms. These findings imply that managers of firms that go public through reverse mergers behave strategically: they time the market when they merge with publicly traded counterparts and sell overvalued capital to investors.

Download or read book Two Essays on Reverse Mergers written by Frederick Amon Adjei and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation of the effects of various features proposed as indicators of firm survival following reverse mergers is conducted using the accelerated failure time (AFT) model. The results imply that large, high performance, and low risk private firms that engage in reverse mergers will have longer survival time in the aftermarket. The use of a financial advisor as well as venture capital backing lengthens survival time. Additionally, the most probable delisting time of an average reverse merged firm is in the 24th month with a probability of delisting of 5.69 percent. For NASDAQ reverse merged firms, the maximum probability of delisting is 5.75 percent in the 23rd month and for NYSE/AMEX reverse merged firms; the maximum delisting probability is 5.37 percent in the 27th month.

Download or read book Mergers written by Patrick A. Gaughan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-05-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful guide for seeking out the best acquisition and merger targets As increasingly more companies look to mergers and acquisitions (M&As) as a source of new growth and revenue, there is an even greater chance that these M&As will go bad. This insightful guide focuses on one of the most often debated and key issues in mergers and acquisitions-why some deals fail miserably and why others prosper. It provides a complete road map for what potential buyers should look for when picking a target and what characteristics of sellers they should steer clear of, as well as pitfalls to avoid during the M&A process. Real-world examples are provided of high-profile failures-Quaker Oats, United Airlines, Sears, and Mattel-and high-profile successes-General Electric and Cisco. Patrick A. Gaughan (New York, NY) is President of Economatrix Research Associates and a professor of Economics and Finance at the College of Business, Fairleigh Dickinson University. He is actively engaged in the practice of business valuations for mergers and acquisitions, as well as other related applications.
Download or read book Mergers Acquisitions and International Financial Regulation written by Daniele D'Alvia and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a much-needed work in the financial literature, and it is the first book ever to analyse the use of Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) from a theoretical and practical perspective. By the end of 2020, more than 240 SPACs were listed in the US (on NASDAQ or the NYSE), raising a record $83 billion. The SPAC craze has been shaking the US for months, mainly because of its simplicity: a bunch of investors decides to buy shares at a fixed price in a company that initially has no assets. In this way, a SPAC, also known as a "blank check company", is created as an empty shell with lots of money to spend on a corporate shopping spree. Could the trend be here to stay? Are SPACs the new legitimate path to traditional IPO? This book tackles those questions and more. The author provides a thorough analysis of SPACs including their legal framework and how they are used as a risk mitigation tool to structure transactions. The main objectives of the book are focused on finding a working definition for SPACs and theorising on their origins, definition, and evolution; identifying the objectives of financial regulation within the context of the recent financial crisis (2007–2010) and the one that is currently unfolding (Covid-19); and also describing practical examples of SPACs through a comparative study that, for the first time, outlines every major capital market on which SPACs are listed, in order to identify a possible international standard of regulation. The book is relevant to academics as well as policymakers, international financial regulators, corporate finance lawyers as well as to the financial industry tout court.
