This makes the acquisition more expensive, and less attractive. A staggered board of directors drags out the takeover process by preventing the entire board from being replaced at the same time. Unfortunately, it also means that a CEO can do a terrible job of running a company, make it very attractive for someone who wants to acquire it, and receive a huge financial reward. The supermajority is a defense that requires 70 or 80 percent of shareholders to approve of any acquisition. This makes it much more difficult for someone to conduct a takeover by buying enough stock for a controlling interest.

The hostile bid was eventually replaced with a benevolent one. How can they do that? In this article, we’ll find out how hostile takeovers happen, how to prevent them and why a hostile takeover isn’t always a bad thing. Who Benefits from a Hostile Takeover? Sometimes, a company can take over another one against its will — a hostile takeover. When two companies merge, the boards of directors (or the owners, if it is a privately held company) come to an agreement. ­ Not all M&As are peaceful, however. In “Other People’s Money,” Danny deVito plays a ruthless corporate raider bent on taking over a family-run company.

It also promotes a stable business environment, since a strong economy benefits everyone. That’s why so many corporations have subsidiaries that don’t have anything in common — they were bought purely for financial reasons. However, economic struggles have led to many companies selling off their cross-held stocks to increase capital or cover bad loans. They may think the target company can generate more profit in the future than the selling price. If a company can make $100 million in profits each year, then buying the company for $200 million makes sense. There are several reasons why a company might want or need a hostile takeover.

Often, a proxy fight originates within the company itself. The most famous recent proxy fight was Hewlett-Packard’s takeover of Compaq. A group of disgruntled shareholders or even managers might seek a change in ownership, so they try to convince other shareholders to band together. The proxy fight is popular because it bypasses many of the defenses that companies put into place to prevent takeovers. Most of those defenses are designed to prevent takeover by purchase of a controlling interest of stock, which the proxy fight sidesteps by changing the opinions of the people who already own it.
