The Poison Pill Anti-Takeover Defense: The Price of Strategic Deterrence (1st Edition) by Robert F. Bruner is a comprehensive and analytical examination of one of the most controversial corporate governance mechanisms in modern finance—the poison pill.
This book explores the development, mechanics, and implications of the poison pill, a defensive strategy used by companies to thwart hostile takeovers. Bruner breaks down how poison pills work, the legal and economic logic behind them, and the intense debates surrounding their impact on shareholder value, corporate control, and market efficiency.
Key features of the book include:
-
A detailed explanation of the mechanics of poison pills and how they are implemented.
-
A balanced evaluation of the benefits and drawbacks of using poison pills from both managerial and shareholder perspectives.
-
Simulation models and empirical data that analyze the effectiveness of the strategy.
-
A survey of legal frameworks, including relevant U.S. regulations like the Williams Act.
-
Case studies and real-world examples that illustrate how poison pills have been used in practice.
Ideal for students of corporate finance, law, and strategic management, as well as business professionals and policymakers, the book encourages readers to consider the trade-offs between strategic deterrence and market freedom in the complex world of mergers and acquisitions.
