Tiivistelmä:The relation between takeover gains and the q ratios of targets and bidders is analyzed for a sample of 704 mergers and tender offers over the period 1972-1987. Target, bidder, and total returns are larger when targets have low q ratios and bidders have high q ratios. The relation is strengthened after controlling for the characteristics of the offer and the contest. This evidence confirms the results of the work by Lang , Stulz, and Walking and shows that their findings also hold for mergers and after controlling for other determinants of takeover gains.
