CDT Roundup: 15 Deals, 12 Firms, 186 Lawyers, $5.3B

The biggest deal reported last week was the $2.4 billion sale of "non-core" assets along the Texas-Louisiana Gulf Coast by Dow, the chemical giant. The sale involved a 40 percent stake in Dow InfraCo sold to alternative asset manage Macquarie. The deal is only the latest in a series of "non-core" sell-offs, a phrase that is becoming as common as "consolidation" in the current market. The CDT takes a look at the "non-core" transaction trend and an observer of the Dow deal who less than impressed. And, of course, the usual report on last week's deals and dealmakers.

CDT Roundup: 16 Deals, 10 Firms, 231 Lawyers, $4.8B

In the year that will soon be past, the sheer volume of energy-related, or energy-adjacent transactions are worth noting. Whether in O&G per se, data center energy demands or the more mundane multitude of PE acquisitions in HVAC manufacturing and service companies, the sides seem okay with the value. So, we weren’t that surprised by the November findings of the semi-annual Haynes Boone Borrowing Base Redeterminations Survey. The CDT Roundup takes a look at the details, along with the usual run-down of the week's M&A deals and the lawyers behind them.

CDT Roundup: 10 Deals, 9 Firms, 103 Lawyers, $10.3B

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. That and more, including last week's deals, in this edition of the CDT Roundup.

For some, it may be too soon to talk about it, but business leaders are already weighing in on how their industries might be impacted by the election results. In one of the first survey’s we’ve seen, Endeavor Business Intelligence deployed a short questionnaire to U.S. business leaders on their perceptions of the upcoming change in administrations. There were 160 respondents, not bad for a one-week project; and the answers proved more complex than one might expect. That and the usual review of last week's reported transactions.

ONEOK to Complete Its Takeover of EnLink Midstream with $4.3B All-Stock Deal

Kirkland & Ellis advised ONEOK and Baker Botts advised EnLink on the transaction in which ONEOK acquires the 56 percent of EnLink it doesn't already own. The deal finishes off an $11.6 billion flurry of transactions by the Tulsa-based midstream.

CDT Roundup: 17 Deals, 11 Firms, 245 Lawyers, $11.5B

Methane emissions are a sticky business in Texas, especially in the Permian where the colorless, odorless substance is simply a by-product of exploration and production for oil and gas on a massive scale. An $88 million satellite set into orbit in March, however, has begun to visualize and quantify the problem. The picture isn't pretty. But situation is complicated, as the CDT Roundup reports this week — along with its usual survey of transactions.

  • P.S. — Yetter Coleman Represents Professors in Challenge to Texas A&M Teaching Policy  - In this edition of P.S., the J.L. Turner Legal Association in Dallas and the San Antonio Bar Foundation recently announced the honorees for their annual award ceremonies. Among those being recognized are prominent criminal defense lawyer Cheryl Wattley and U.S. District Judge Fred Biery, whose sharply worded ruling condemning the Trump administration’s immigration tactics drew national attention earlier this year. 

    We also cover the Houston Bar Foundation, which is providing $30,000 in scholarships across Houston’s three law schools to support students pursuing careers in public interest law and public service. In addition, the foundation has opened applications for the second year of its Community Grants Program, which awarded $100,000 to 15 community projects during its inaugural funding cycle. 

    Attorneys taking on immigration matters pro bono may find a newly launched mentorship initiative from the Austin-based nonprofit VECINA especially valuable. Supported by a grant from the Texas Bar Foundation, the Texas Immigration Legal Resiliency Program offers virtual office hours where participants can seek guidance on immigration cases. We’ve got the details.  

    And finally, Yetter Coleman has joined the ACLU of Texas and the national ACLU in a lawsuit challenging the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents’ restrictions on teaching about race, gender and sexuality. The Houston-based litigation boutique is handling the matter on a pro bono basis.
