The Two Firms are:
1) AT&T (ticker symbol T) acquiring Time Warner
2) Verizon (ticker symbol vz) merging and/or acquiring AOL
Write about these two topics related to Mergers and Acquisition of each firm:
1) Target Firm Shareholder Ownership Structure Adjustment. How do the acquiring or acquired firms adjust shareholders’ ownership structure? (10marks)
2) Days to Completion: The difference between the merger announcement and completion date. (3marks)
Use mainly the EDGAR 8-K Filing Form MAINLY so your information should come from there. In addition to the 8-K form you can use stuff like the PREM14A and DEFM14A and any other credible forms and sources.
Write on the topics for BOTH firms separately and then in the end compare each topic so compare AT&T’s merger/acquisition to Verizon’s merger/acquisition.
Using the 8-K form from EDGAR mainly and other credible sources. Moreover all the relevant financial statements, detailed calculations or graphs in one excel file so one tab financial statement and one tab M&A Calculations.
The report will be 1 page max, i put 2 pages in the order because the other page is the excel calculations file.
