| Tiivistelmä: | This article examines the extent to which takeovers mitigate the underinvestment problem of Meyers and Majluf and the free-cash-flow problem of Jensen. Using accounting data, bidders are classified as "high free cash flow", "slack poor", or "other". Bidder, target , and total returns are highest for acquisitions that combine slack-poor and free-cash-flow firms. The widely cited negative returns of bidders are concentrated among combinations where bidders and targets are similarly classified. |
