    Högskolan i Halmstad Sektionen för Ekonomi och Teknik C-uppsats, Finansiering 41-60p VT-2007 KAPITALSTRUKTUREN I SVENSKA RISKKAPITALBOLAG - en jämförelse mellan buyoutbolag och övriga riskkapitalbolag - Författare: Handledare: Johansson, Johan 830628 Bengt O. Haraldsson Lundholm, Fredrik 840126 Rask, Andreas 821129 Förord Att skriva en uppsats kan i mångt och mycket liknas vid att försöka göra färdigt ett konstverk. Många smådetaljer och fog för finjusteringar dyker upp hela tiden och till slut blir det svårt att lämna ifrån sig verket. Med detta sagt vill vi även påminna läsaren om att det skriftliga språket är ett relativt trubbigt verktyg, många gånger har vi därför nödgats föra oss med engelsk och ibland även ”svengelsk” terminologi, men vi försäkrar läsaren om att vi har använt detta verktyg på ett så slipat sätt som möjligt. Vi vill rikta ett stort tack, för välriktad hand- och vägledning under studiens gång, till vår handledare tillika universitetsadjunkt Bengt O. Haraldsson. Ytterligare ett stort tack, för råd inom kvantitativ metod och statistik, vill vi rikta till universitetsadjunkt Niclas Frifelt. Utan dessa två solida klippor hade vår ytterst högkvalitativa kvantitativa studie inte, i lika hög grad, utgjort ett gediget dokument för oss att vara stolta över. Håll till godo… Detta opus, med hela dess litterära värde och vetenskapliga tyngd, tillägnas författarna själva _________________ _________________ _________________ Johan Johansson Fredrik Lundholm Andreas Rask Halmstad, 18 maj 2007 Abstract During the last few years the Swedish private equity market has been a very current and discussed issue in Swedish media. Through a quantitative study, with a deductive method for the data collection, the authors answer the following problem: How does the capital structure in Swedish buyout oriented private equity firms differ from the capital structure in other Swedish private equity and venture capital firms? The authors have compared the financial key ratios solidity, return on assets, return on equity and liquid ratio between the two types of firms.

  • The Operating Impact of Management Ownership Evidence from Private Equity Buyouts in Sweden
    Stockholm School of Economics Department of Finance MSc thesis – Spring 2013 Supervisor: Assistant Professor Michael Halling The Operating Impact of Management Ownership Evidence from Private Equity Buyouts in Sweden Abstract Using a novel dataset comprising 161 private equity buyouts in Sweden between 2002 and 2008, this paper investigates the impact of management participation on operating performance in buyouts. The authors compare performance in private equity sponsored management buyouts (MBOs) with other buyouts and also investigate the effect of management ownership in buyout companies. The analysis is carried out using regression analysis over two event windows, the three years following the buyout year and the period from entry to exit. The authors find that a higher management equity stake has a positive effect on profitability in buyout companies, but has a negative impact on growth. Additionally, the study finds that MBOs tend to outperform other buyouts over the full holding period. Looking at employee growth, larger management ownership in buyout companies is found to have a significant positive effect on employment. Keywords: Private equity, management buyout, MBO, management incentives, operating performance Mikael Svanberg Christopher Wanzelius [email protected] [email protected] Acknowledgements We would like to thank our tutor, Assistant Professor Michael Halling, for valuable support and guidance during the process of writing this paper. We also acknowledge Professor Per Strömberg, who was kind enough to provide feedback on our chosen topic. Last but not least, we would like to thank our friends and family for their encouragement and patience during the past few months. 1 Table of Contents Table of Contents ...............................................................................................................
