The long-awaited Private Target M&A Deal Points Study, conducted by the M&A Market Trends Subcommittee of the Section's Committee on Negotiated Acquisitions was released on March 27, 2006. This important study benchmarks a broad range of key negotiated deal points from publicly-available acquisition agreements involving public buyers of private target companies, thus providing key data for the oft-debated issue in M&A transactions: "what in fact is the market"? This study is expected to become an indispensable resource for M&A lawyers.
Powell Goldstein partner Stuart C. Johnson was a member of the working group which prepared this study.
