The strategies and aims of private equity firms are explained in the context of the financial landscape that has allowed them to flourish; their aggressive expansion into media ownership is outlined in detail. Particular attention is paid to the public interest concerns raised by private equity media ownership relating to the frenzied nature of the buyout market, profit maximization strategies, and the heavy debt burdens imposed on acquired firms. The article concludes with discussion of the challenges posed by private equity to effective media regulation and comparison of private equity and corporate media ownership models. The media sector in the United States is deeply and historically rooted in the capitalist system of private ownership. The structures and demands of private ownership foundationally influence the management and operation of media firms, which must necessarily serve the ultimate end of profitability within such a system.

Gangaram-Panday MSc Second reader: Dr. J. Lemmen Date final version: 27-08-2020 J. Spelde (2020) Abstract In this research, I analyzed the pricing, target firm characteristics and involved alignment costs in club deal leveraged buyouts. Using a dataset of completed and withdrawn leveraged buyouts of publicly traded U.S. targets, I found that target shareholders receive between approximately 8,5% and 34% lower premiums compared to sole-sponsored leveraged buyouts in the pre-2006 time period. There is no difference in the premium in the post-2005 time period. These results are robust to the usual M&A control variables, including size, risk, and industry and time fixed effects. By examining withdrawn deals, I studied two influences: (1) the likelihood of a completed deal after the announcement is lower for club leveraged buyouts consisting of one merely one prominent private equity firm compared to sole-sponsored private equity deals, and (2) the duration between the announcement date and the date of completion/withdrawal is longer compared to sole-sponsored private equity deals, also merely for clubs consisting of one prominent private equity firm. I found motives for capital constraints in the post-2005 time period which is merely evident for clubs consisting of two prominent private equity firms, but no indication in favor of diversification motives.

    ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM ERASMUS SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS MSc Economics & Business Master Specialisation Financial Economics A study on the economic impact of private equity club deals in leveraged buyouts Author: Ward A. Blokker BSc Student number: 417525 E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] Thesis supervisor: Dr. Y. Dai Second reader: Dr. V. Volosovych Finish date: July 2016 PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEGDEMENTS With pleasure I present to you this study on the economic impact of private equity club deals in leveraged buyouts. This thesis will conclude my master’s degree in Economics & Business Economics (specialisation Financial Economics) at Erasmus University Rotterdam. The idea for this thesis originated during the Seminar Advanced Corporate Finance: Private Equity. One of the key articles on which I base my research (“Club deals in leveraged buyouts” by Officer, Ozbas, and Sensoy, published in 2010) was part of the literature during this seminar. Some time after the seminar, I started an internship at a Dutch private equity firm, where I encountered many “club deals” myself: deals in which private equity acquirers join forces to purchase a target firm. My colleagues told me about the ever-increasing competition in the private equity industry combined with the limited supply of companies to buy in recent years, and I started wondering whether this increased competition could be part of the reason why a substantial amount of targets is purchased by private equity coalitions. Later, I immersed myself in this topic by reading several articles, and decided to write a research proposal about it. I submitted this research proposal to Dr.
