...Chapter 3 Case Study: Mittal Acquires Arcelor in a Battle of Global Titans 1. Identify the takeover tactics employed by Mittal. Explain why each was used. Answer: Mittal attempted a friendly takeover by initiating behind the scenes negotiations with Guy Dolle, CEO of Arcelor. However, after being rebuffed publicly, Mittal employed a two-tiered cash and stock tender offer to circumvent the Arcelor board. To counter virulent opposition from both Arcelor management and local politicians, Mittal announced that it would condition the second tier of its tender offer on receiving more than one-half of the Arcelor voting stock. However, the second tier offer would be at a slightly lower price than offered in the first tier. This was done to encourage Arcelor shareholders to participate in the first tier offering. If Mittal could gain a majority of voting shares it would be able to acquire the remaining shares through a backend merger. Moreover, Mittal sued to test the legality of Arcelor’s moving its recently acquired Dofasco operations into a trust to prevent Mittal from selling the operation to help finance the takeover. Mittal also attempted to rally large shareholder support against what were portrayed as Arcelor management’s self-serving maneuvers. Finally, Mittal continued efforts to appeal to shareholders by raising its bid from its initial 22 percent premium to the then current Arcelor share price to what amounted to a 93 percent premium and agreeing to...

...Case 1 : Arcelor Undervaluation: threat of opportunity This case deals with the worries of Arcelor which believes that its shares are undervalued (and hence may be under threat of an imminent takeover). As a defensive action, Arcelor has to decide whether to buy back stock via a repurchase tender offer or via an open market repurchase. Before doing so, it has to value the company to get an estimate of the fair value of the company. It has also to decide whether it can afford the buyback: is the increase in leverage a move to a better capital structure? The firm faces a dilemma when choosing between a tender offer and an open market repurchase: buying in the open market is cheaper, but a tender offer will increase stock prices more in the short run, which may be important if the firm wants to get a better price in a hostile takeover bid. You have to value Arcelor as well as analyze the implications for optimal capital structure. Solve questions 1-4 of the case. Case 2 : Arcelor Mittal Takeover This case describes the hostile bid of Mittal for Arcelor in the first half of 2006. The case illustrates the different defence mechanisms firms can employ in hostile bid situations. It documents stock price behaviour around the crucial events surrounding the acquisition. Why does the market reacts in a particular way to the various takeover defences? The case allows calculation of synergy benefits as estimated by Mittal as well as market estimates by measuring announcement...

...Case Memo of Roche Group Members: Cai Aiyong, Gong Haoran, Song, Shizhong, Li Wei, Zhou, Wenjun 1. Why is Roche seeking to acquire the 44% of Genentech it does not own? From Roche’s point of view, what are the advantages of owning 100% of Genentech? What are the risks? (1) reasons and advantages are as follows: A. Genentech had become an important part of Roche’s business, representing 24% of Roche’s pharmaceutical product sales in 2008. Several of Genentech’s pioneering products achieved very strong market positions due to their medical differentiation, commanding high prices. Products originating from Genentech represented 46% of total sales of Roche’s 20 top-selling drugs on a worldwide basis. Avastin, for example, accounted for 14% of Roche’s total pharmaceutical sales in 2008. The market had many “me-too” drugs, which were similar in composition and treatment to existing products, and relatively little innovation. Given the lack of success in bringing new and innovative drugs to market, many pharmaceutical companies were also seeking to diversify from the prescription drug business by acquiring generic-drug companies. B. Genentech was increasingly coming into direct competition with Roche in several U.S. markets. In developing small molecular products, Genentech had begun to encroach on Roche’s traditional territory, while Roche was preparing to launch products in the U.S. that would compete with existing Genentech products. A merger of the two companies would...

...THE JOURNAL OF FINANCE • VOL. LV, NO. 6 • DEC. 2000 Hostility in Takeovers: In the Eyes of the Beholder? G. WILLIAM SCHWERT* ABSTRACT This paper examines whether hostile takeovers can be distinguished from friendly takeovers, empirically, based on accounting and stock performance data. Much has been made of this distinction in both the popular and the academic literature, where gains from hostile takeovers result from replacing incumbent managers and gains from friendly takeovers result from strategic synergies. Alternatively, hostility could ref lect strategic choices made by the bidder or the target. Empirical tests show that most deals described as hostile in the press are not distinguishable from friendly deals in economic terms, except that hostile transactions involve publicity as part of the bargaining process. THE PERCEPTION OF HOSTILITY in American takeovers has had important connotations in both the popular and the academic literature. Unwelcome bids are often perceived to threaten at least some of the stakeholders in target corporations, leading to extensive defensive reactions by the management of the target firm. In contrast, friendly takeovers are often seen to create synergies that make both the bidder and the target firm better off ~see, for example, Mørck, Shleifer, and Vishny ~1988, 1989!!. The distinction between hostile and friendly takeovers is also important if removing an inefficient target management team creates the gains from hostile takeovers...

...shareholders better than rejecting it, it recommends the offer be accepted by the shareholders. 1.2 Hostile takeovers A "hostile takeover" allows a suitor to take over a target company whose management is unwilling to agree to a merger or takeover. A takeover is considered "hostile" if the target company's board rejects the offer, but the bidder continues to pursue it, or the bidder makes the offer directly after having announced its firm intention to make an offer. A hostile takeover can be conducted in several ways. A tender offer can be made where the acquiring company makes a public offer at a fixed price above the current market price. An acquiring company can also engage in a proxy fight, whereby it tries to persuade enough shareholders, usually asimple majority, to replace the management with a new one which will approve the takeover. Another method involves quietly purchasing enough stock on the open market, known as a "creeping tender offer", to effect a change in management....
