Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled The Effect of Mergers and Tender Offers on Stockholder Returns: The Case of Hong Kong submitted by XIE Fenying for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in February 2002 Despite the constant growth of corporate takeovers in Hong Kong during the past few years, little research has been carried out on mergers and acquisitions (M&As) in the region. This study explores M&As in the Hong Kong market with particular emphasis on the examination of abnormal returns around merger and tender offer announcements from 1986 to 1998. In addition to qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis with event study and cross-sectional regression techniques is included. Compared with takeovers in other developed equity markets such as the U.S., mergers and tender offers in Hong Kong exhibit some peculiar differences. The market resistance of takeovers is strong and hostile bids are rare. Ownership of most companies is highly concentrated, often within a family group, and it is closely tied with corporate control power. Capital gains in Hong Kong are not taxed. The regulatory framework for takeovers is also different, e.g. the takeover trigger point is relatively high with 35 percent in the examination period. Under this specific market background, it is found that stockholders of target firms benefit from mergers and tender offers, while stockholders of bidding firms lose. Using market model estimation, on announcement day, merger and tender offer targets both earn statistically significant positive abnormal returns of more than 3%; tender offer bidders show a significant negative abnormal return of -2.18%, whilst merger bidders obtain a positive but insignificant abnormal return of 2.15%. The cumulative average abnormal return over the entire event window, i.e. twenty days before to twenty days after the announcement date, is 8.58% for merger targets (Z statistic = 1.57), 13.75% (Z statistic = 4.97) for tender offer targets, 12.95% for total targets (Z statistic = 5.19), -5.78% (Z statistic = -1.01) for merger bidders, -8.12% (Z statistic = -2.20) for tender offer bidders, and -6.84% (Z statistic = -2.22) for total bidders. The results of market-adjusted-return models are similar. Cross-sectional analysis of the effects of various factors on cumulative abnormal returns over day -1 and day 0 is conducted for targets and bidders respectively. The results indicate that the abnormal performances of targets and bidders are independent of firm size and the mode of acquisition (i.e. merger or tender offer). The cumulative abnormal returns of targets display a strong negative association with pure cash payment and a strong positive relation with their bidders' pretakeover toehold investment. However, there is no evidence that method of financing and toehold explain variation in abnormal performance of bidding firms. Vertical acquisitions are positively related to the two-day cumulative abnormal returns at a less significant level for both target and bidding firms.

This book was released on 2013-08-07 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Controlling, grade: 1,3, University of Cologne (Seminar für allgemeine BWL und Controlling), language: English, abstract: “Warren Buffett swallows Heinz: Sauce for the sage” – a typical takeover announcement was published lately on 14th February 2013. Warren Buffett, a well known inves tor, acquired along with the financial investor 3G Capital the H. J. Heinz Company for $ 28 billion. This is likely to become the largest transaction in the food industry. The company's stock price rose more than 20.0 percent after the publication which is a very characteristic reaction to deal announcements. Hence, the important question is, if transactions, such as the takeover of the H. J. Heinz Company, affect the corporate performance consistently. In general, the core idea about mergers and acquisitions (M&A) is to generate additional future growth if for example organic growth is limited. If two companies merge or a target is bought by another company (the acquirer), shareholders believe in synergy effects. These are revenue enhancements, cost reductions, tax gains and reduced capital requirements leading to business growth and thus to a higher value of the new company. However, it is questionable if this theory can also be experienced in the real world. Ever since the effects of M&A have been analysed, the market of the United States (US) was used as data source. This is plausible due to the fact that the very first information was well recorded for US companies. It is remarkable that literature contributes very little research on Europe, although the number of announced European transactions is comparable to those of the US. For example, in 2007 the European deals volume overtook the one from the United States of America (USA) for the first time. Moreover, research on single European countries almost never exists or only rarely. One exception is the United Kingdom (UK) with an early takeover history beginning in the 1960s. However, European countries should be analysed separately because of its high diversity regarding the accounting framework, the corporate governance or the legal and regulation structure. For instance, Germany is characterised by conservative accounting principles and a high regulation by the banking sector. These issues may also influence the M&A decision making process.

Download or read book The Economics of Corporate Governance and Mergers written by K. Gugler and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an insightful view of major issues in the economics of corporate governance (CG) and mergers. It presents a systematic update on the developments in the two fields during the last decade, as well as highlighting the neglected topics in CG research, such as the role of boards, CG and public interest and the relation of CG to mergers. Two important conclusions can be drawn from this book: the first is that corporate governance systems that better align shareholders and managers interests lead to better corporate performance; second, there is an important relationship between CG structures and the quality of firm decision-making, one of the most important being the decision to merge or take over another firm. Focusing on some of the often-neglected aspects of corporate governance such as non-profit organizations and public interest, as well as mergers and acquisitions from a CG perspective, this book will be a valuable resource for both academics and postgraduate students of finance, business and economics.
