TL;DR: In the third quarter of 2009, many potential deals were announced as discussed by the authors, which may signal an end to the M&A slowdown, but this was not the case in the last few years.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the financial characteristics of the U.S. companies acquired by foreign companies with a matched sample of non-acquired U. S. companies during the post-crisis period and find that liquidity is not a significant factor in the acquisition decisions of foreign buyers.
Abstract: The number of cross-border mergers and acquisitions has increased considerably after the 2007-2008 financial crisis. However, the post-crisis M&A market has not been studied sufficiently. In this paper, we compare the financial characteristics of the U.S. companies acquired by foreign companies with a matched sample of non-acquired U.S. companies during the post-crisis period. Supporting the findings of the prior literature, we provide evidence that acquiring companies tend to target mismanaged firms with low profitability. We also find that liquidity is not a significant factor in the acquisition decisions of foreign buyers. This paper is one of the first attempts to empirically examine the post-crisis M&A market, which may encourage more future research on the subject. JEL: G11, G15
