It’s that time of year again! As we approach the end of 2024, it’s crucial to ensure that your submissions to the Corporate Deal Tracker are fully credited. The Texas Lawbook’s M&A team is committed to identifying all relevant submissions for deals involving Texas-based lawyers, and we want to make sure that no qualified deal from your firm goes unaccounted for.
To assist you in this process, we’ll be emailing the primary CDT contact at each firm a spreadsheet this week outlining what has been submitted to The Lawbook so far for 2024.
If your firm still needs to submit deals to the CDT this year, now is the time to do so. If your deals have already been submitted, now is the time to verify that all M&A and capital markets transactions involving your Texas lawyers that have already been submitted have been accurately represented. If you discover any missing deals on the spreadsheet that we will email out this week, we urge you to submit them by the Dec. 16 deadline through our CDT submission portal. Remember, the CDT focuses on qualified deals that include Texas lawyers.
Deals submitted to The Lawbook must include basic information, which is summarized below and can be found in detail here.
For M&A: announcement date, close date, buyer, seller, firm client, value (if disclosed), business sector, a brief description of the deal and the names (including offices) of the lawyers who worked on the deal. Please identify your firm’s lead lawyers, whether or not they were officed in Texas. Please include a link to any public announcement of the deal if one is available.
For capital markets: issuer, firm client, date of issue or announcement, date closed, a brief description of the issue, firm client, any financial advisors, agents, initial purchasers, etc. Please include any links that describe or support the submission.
Your assistance allows us to consistently and accurately highlight the significant work of Texas law firms and ensures that every effort is recognized!
In the meantime, don’t hesitate to reach out to Data & Research Specialist Christi Trammell at christi.trammell@texaslawbook.net if you have any questions.
Now, back to the Roundup. For the week ending Nov. 30, there were 10 deals valued at $10.3 billion. That’s compared to the week prior, which saw 15 deals for $4.5 billion. Although there were only four M&A transactions reported for the holiday-shortened work week, three of them accounted for more than $8 billion of the week’s total. During last year’s Thanksgiving week, there were only nine deals for $4.8 billion.
