Activist investors are a reality in today’s public company environment. Activists, however, should not automatically be treated like a hostile acquirer. Every company has a unique set of facts. Your company needs to develop the best strategy, taking into account its specific shareholder base and circumstances.
Preparation is key. Preparing your company requires taking a hard look at your vulnerabilities.
The lawyers at Hogan Lovells help prepare companies and their boards so that they are ready for an activist. The best outcome is often not a public proxy contest.
In responding to specific shareholder activism situations, we combine our securities regulation, corporate governance, public company, M&A, and corporate litigation teams. We create tailored solutions for each situation. Our multidisciplinary approach enables us to explore a range of options for each activist situation.
