Acquisition Accounting Method and Bid Premia for Target Firms.
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Previous research suggests that certain benefits may derive from the method used to account for business combinations and may affect how bidding firms structure and classify corporate acquisitions. This paper investigates whether benefits derived from accounting method are reflected in bid premia for target firms. Three estimates of bid premia are examined in 95 stock-for-stock acquisitions, 59 accounted for as poolings, and 36 accounted for as purchases. Sampling restrictions, covariance analysis, and a nonparametric matched pair comparison control for potentially confounding variables identified from prior research on bid premia determinants. The results show an association between acquisition accounting method and bid premia for target firms.
