Abstract: | It is questionable whether publicly held firms which change to private ownership possess characteristics prior to the change which differentiate them from firms which remain publicly owned. The financial characteristics of ex-public firms for the year immediately prior to going private were analyzed. Financial characteristics alone provide a means by which firms going private via management buyouts can be separated. Financial characteristics either are explicit decision variables of reflect non-financial reasons for management buyouts. |
