    Negotiated Acquisitions and Buyouts is a plain English reference guide for mergers and acquisitions and buyouts with step-by-step advice on the key legal, tax and structuring issues when implementing transactions.

    The book contains 22 chapters divided into three parts, and is a comprehensive reference for anyone involved in acquisitions, divestments and private equity.

    It is a comprehensive guide intended to assist professionals, investors, management teams and advisers and it gives detailed and up-to-date information on each stage of the deal and related areas. There are chapters on term sheets, shareholder arrangements, debt financing and due diligence. The book also considers the best-approach to ensuring success in various specific deal types, including initial public offerings, employee share option plans, investing in roll-ups and distressed acquisitions. In each case the benefits and risks are considered and industry statistics included. The book is primarily focused on acquisitions and sales of private companies but also includes a chapter on public company takeovers.

    The useful checklists, definitions, case studies and examples all contribute to making this an essential addition to the bookshelves of all those involved in acquisitions, divestments and private equity. Thoroughly researched and extensively verified, Negotiated Acquisitions and Buyouts has been reviewed by a panel of industry experts, including some of Australia's best known lawyers, investors, bankers and corporate advisers.
