CDT Roundup: 15 Deals, 12 Firms, 56 Lawyers, $23.8B

September 17, 2019 Claire Poole

Activist investors struck again last week, this time at Dallas-based AT&T. 

Billionaire Paul Singer’s Elliott Management revealed a $3.2 billion position in the telecom/entertainment giant, criticizing its acquisitions (including that of Time Warner), calling for the sale of DirecTV and suggesting a media-savvy replacement for CEO Randall Stevenson, whose heir apparent is recently appointed COO John Stankey. 

The hedge fund thinks its plan can boost the company’s stock to $60 per share, versus a recent $36.

An AT&T spokeswoman wouldn’t reveal the legal advisors assisting the company on the affront. But she did provide a statement saying that the company’s management and board will review Elliott’s list of actions, many of which it claims it’s already executing.

“[Our] strategy is driven by the unique portfolio of valuable businesses we’ve assembled across communications networks and media and entertainment, and as Elliott points out, is the foundation for significant value creation,” the statement said. “We believe growing and investing in these businesses is the best path forward for our company and our shareholders.” 

Goldman Sachs is advising AT&T on a defense, according to several media outlets (perhaps former JP Morgan banker Kurt Simon). AT&T’s general counsel is David McAtee.

This past June, this space reported the possibility of the company spinning off DirecTV, with UBS analyst John Hodulik calling it the weakest piece of the AT&T puzzle. 

Hodulik said a sale of DirecTV (most likely to Dish) would help AT&T cut its $200 billion debt load (by $25 billion), yield tax benefits (given the $48.5 billion it paid for it) and boost its stock price, thus narrowing its valuation gap with Verizon. AT&T wouldn’t comment at the time.

Meanwhile, in Texas dealmaking land, this past week saw 15 transactions valued at $23.8 billion, down in number from the 17 recorded the previous week but up in value compared with the $3.5 billion booked previously. At this time last year, there were 13 deals valued at $5.9 billion.

Simpson Thacher & Bartlett’s advice to Blackstone on a new $20.5 billion real estate fund – aided by handful of lawyers out of the Houston office – certainly helped boost the week’s total value.

Simpson Thacher & Bartlett said it advised Blackstone on its new $20.5 billion real estate fund, the largest real estate fund ever raised.

The team was led out of New York but included counsel James Hays and associates John Myers, Devin Ralston and Susan Czaikowski, all of Houston.

Blackstone announced the final close of Real Estate Partners IX on Sept. 11, whose initial investment was the purchase of GLP’s U.S. logistics assets in June for around $19 billion along with other Blackstone vehicles.

Blackstone also is investing through two regional opportunistic funds, the $8.7 billion BREP Europe V and the $7.2 billion BREP Asia II.

Kathleen McCarthy and Kan Caplain are global co-heads of Blackstone Real Estate, which was founded in 1991 and has $154 billion of investor capital under management. Blackstone is one of the largest property owners in the world, owning logistics, multifamily and single family housing, offices, hotels and shopping centers.

Jones Day advised Rivian’s largest shareholder Global Oryx on its $350 million investment from Cox Automotive.

Houston partner-in-charge Stephen Olson and associate Brittney Brescia worked on the deal. Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz counseled Cox Automotive.

Vinson & Elkins advised CryoLife on option to buy Endospan for $250M

Vinson & Elkins said it advised Atlanta-based CryoLife Inc. on its option to purchase Endospan for $250 million plus other consideration.

Austin partner Paul Tobias and counsel Andy Smetana led the deal team with assistance from associates Kate Rainey and Ben Cukerbaum; senior associate Allyson Seger on tax; and partner Bailey Pham and senior associate Danny Strassman on finance. Endospan’s legal counsel is GKH Law Offices.

The option to purchase Endospan survives until 90 days after notice of U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for Endospan’s Nexus product. The deal includes a guaranteed $100 million payment and up to an additional $100 million based on the commercial success of Nexus in the first year post exercise of the option.

Endospan is an Israeli cardiac and vascular surgery company focused on aortic disease. It claims Nexus is the only endovascular stent graft system approved for the repair of both aneurysms and dissections in the aortic arch.

CryoLife said Sept. 11 it also signed distribution and credit facility agreements with Endospan, which will help it accelerate sales and earnings growth over the next five years.

CryoLife chairman, CEO and president Pat Mackin said in a statement that the addition of Nexus to the company’s product offerings gives it immediate access to the $150 million EU market and has the potential to expand its addressable market by more than $800 million.

Endospan CEO Kevin Mayberry said the funding supplied through the distribution and credit facility provides the company with the working capital needed to support operations in Europe and complete the U.S. FDA approval process, which is anticipated in around five years.

Aortic arch disease includes aortic aneurysms and aortic dissections, which occur suddenly and usually without warning. About 120,000 patients suffer thoracic aortic arch disease per year in the U.S. and Europe but only about 30,000 receive treatment.  

Under terms of the agreements, CryoLife will acquire the European distribution rights for Nexus and an option to purchase Endospan for an upfront payment of $10 million. CryoLife will provide up to $15 million in additional debt financing to Endospan subject to Endospan’s progress on its U.S. clinical trial in support of an FDA approval for Nexus.  

CryoLife expects to finance the acquisition of the distribution and option rights and debt financing out of available cash on hand.

Kirkland represents North Hudson on $140M Split Rock investment

Kirkland & Ellis said it represented North Hudson Resource Partners and its affiliates on their expanded partnership with Fort Worth-based Split Rock Resources involving $140 million in capital commitments.

The Kirkland team included corporate partners Shubi Arora and Jhett Nelson, associate Erik Shoemaker and investment funds partner Matt Nadworny. Split Rock’s outside legal advisors couldn’t be determined by press time.

Split Rock is focused on acquiring non-operated working interests in oil and gas assets in the DJ Basin, including permitted wells, drilled but uncompleted wells and producing wells. So far Split Rock has acquired interests or participated in the drilling of 190 horizontal wells. 

Split Rock founder and CEO Jake Bailey said in a statement that management is excited about the quality of operators and the opportunity set in the DJ Basin. Over the years he has closed $1.5 billion in acquisitions and divestitures transactions with various independent operators and most recently managed a non-operated asset in the DJ Basin and the Bakken. 

Mark Bisso, managing partner of Houston-based North Hudson, said his investment team has experience investing in the DJ Basin and believes opportunity exists in a direct wellbore strategy given the underlying strong well economics and the current market dislocations.

Foley counsels Neighborhood Goods on $11M Series A funding

Dallas-based retailer Neighborhood Goods has secured $11 million in Series A funding in a round led by Global Founders Capital, bringing the total amount raised to $25.5 million.

Repeat investors also participated, including Forerunner Ventures, NextGen Venture Partners and Serena Ventures, the fund of tennis champion Serena Williams.

Foley partner Glenn Singleton and associate Austin Poynter in Dallas advised Neighborhood Goods. The two also counseled it on raising $8.8 million in seed funding this past February, which doubled its post-money valuation. Global Founders Capital led that round as well.

The retailer plans to use the funding to open an outlet this fall in New York’s Chelsea Market in the Meatpacking District, where it plans to test new products. It also hopes to debut an Austin location on South Congress next year and is working on developing a proprietary technology platform.

Late last year Neighborhood Goods opened its first location in Plano, where Williams launched a new clothing line. 

Other product partners include Walmart’s direct-to-consumer mattress brand Allswell, actress Reese Witherspoon’s clothing line Draper James, wellness brand Hims and Hers and sneaker marketplace Stadium Goods (Neighborhood Goods’ funder Forerunner also has investments in Draper James, Stadium Goods and Hims).

Retail entrepreneur Matt Alexander and real estate developer Mark Masinter of Open Realty Advisors co-founded the concept in 2017. Their aim: to take over large spaces where more than a dozen brands — many of them born on the Internet — can sell merchandise on a rotating basis.

Dwyer advises Realized on $6M in Series A funding

Realized, an Austin-based technology-enabled platform that provides wealth management solutions for investment properties, raised $6 million in Series A funding. Calibrate Ventures led the round, which included Rice Park Capital. 

Dwyer Murphy Calvert partner Kelly Dwyer in Austin advised the company, having worked with Realized CEO and founder David Wieland on four or five companies over the past decade.

Realized said it enables investors to tax-efficiently redeploy equity from legacy investment properties into diversified, passive income portfolios.

Using 1031 “like-kind” exchanges and other tax-deferment mechanisms, Realized helps investors co-invest in diversified commercial property portfolios designed to offer potential income – and without landlord responsibilities.

“When we launched Realized three years ago, our goal was to provide individual investors with a holistic, transparent solution to tax-efficiently trade out of their investment properties,” Wieland said in a statement. “The additional capital allows us to expand the Realized platform to serve more families, planning-centric investment advisors, CPAs and attorneys seeking to deliver value to their clients considering 1031 exchanges.”

A 1031 exchange, which gets its name from IRC Section 1031, allows an investor to defer the capital gains on the sale of investment property by reinvesting the proceeds from the sale, within specific time limits, in “like-kind” property or properties of equal or greater value.

The Realized platform connects accredited 1031 exchange investors with experienced real estate operators seeking co-investment capital for high-quality properties. Through the platform, investors can compare and evaluate 1031-qualified co-investment options and develop a portfolio reinvestment plan with the assistance of trained real estate professionals.

Kevin Dunlap, co-founder of Pasadena, Calif.-based Calibrate (an investor in Chegg, Dollar Shave Club and Ring), will join Realized’s board. Nick Smith led the investment from Minneapolis-based Rice. 

Weil, Kirkland counsel on KKR’s investment in Burning Glass

Weil Gotshal & Manges said it advised Providence Strategic Growth on its sale of a majority stake in Boston-based Burning Glass Technologies to KKR for an undisclosed sum.

The team included partner David Gail, associate Preston Moore and tax partner Jonathan Macke, all of Dallas. Kirkland & Ellis assisted KKR, including partners John Pitts and Kyle Watson and associates Hakim Effiom-Dauw and Camille Walker.

The investment is part of KKR’s “global impact” strategy, which is focused on identifying and investing in companies whose business provides commercial solutions that contribute measurable progress toward one or more of the United Nations’ 17 sustainable development goals.

By providing the data to drive lifelong learning and market-aligned training, KKR said Burning Glass is delivering measurable progress in achieving two of the goals: quality education; and decent work and economic growth.

“By harnessing real-time labor market data, Burning Glass predicts the jobs and skills workers will need in the future, equipping educators, companies and governments with the tools necessary to meet this challenge and contribute meaningful progress toward these goals,” KKR Global Impact co-head Robert Antablin said in a statement. Ken Mehlman is the other co-head of the unit.

Burning Glass will continue to be led by its current executive team, including CEO Matt Sigelman and COO Josh Ticktin.

Matt Stone led the sale from Providence Strategic Growth, the growth equity affiliate of Providence Equity Partners.

Burning Glass is the fourth investment out of KKR’s Global Impact strategy. The other three are Barghest Building Performance, Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd. and KnowBe4. 

BoyarMiller advises Priest Equities on Amtel investment

The GulfStar Group said it provided financial advice to Priest Equities-backed Amtel Partners on its purchase of Amtel LLC, including managing directors Scott Winship and Brian Lobo along with VP Charles Craig and associate Sarah Wilson. Terms weren’t disclosed.

GulfStar said BoyarMiller founding shareholder Bill Boyar, senior associate Cyrus Chin and associate Alex Parker provided legal counsel to Priest Equities.

Amtel Partners financed the deal through a $56 million senior credit facility provided by Amegy Bank, Woodforest National Bank and Bank of Texas. GulfStar also was the financing and structuring advisor to Priest Equities on the debt placement, which closed Aug. 30.

Based in Grapevine, Amtel is a top T-Mobile retailer with 152 locations across the U.S., including Texas, California, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, New York and Massachusetts. 

Locke Lord represents Serna Insurance on sale to Arthur J. Gallagher

Locke Lord said it represented Serna Insurance Agency Inc. on its sale to Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. for an undisclosed sum.

The team was led by partner Chris Martin and associate Stuart Lawson, both of Houston. Partners Laura L. Ferguson, Ryan Morgan, Joe Perillo and Buddy Sanders and associate Stefano Wach provided additional assistance.

Gallagher didn’t use outside counsel, relying on its in-house counsel to effect the deal.

Founded in 2001 by Pete and Martha Serna, Serna Insurance offers private client, personal lines and commercial insurance products and services to customers throughout Texas and in surrounding states. They and their associates will continue to operate from their current location under the direction of Jeff Saunders, head of Gallagher’s U.S. personal lines operations.

“Personal lines is an important strategic initiative for Gallagher and Serna’s reputation as a high-quality personal lines agency across Texas is a natural fit with our strategy,” chairman, CEO and president J. Patrick Gallagher Jr. said in a statement.

Rolling Meadows, Ill.-based Gallagher announced the deal Sept. 9. It is a global insurance brokerage, risk management and consulting services firm with operations in 35 countries and client service capabilities in 150 countries through a network of brokers and consultants.

Willkie Farr represents Colony Capital on Alpine JV with Sam Zell’s EGI

Willkie Farr & Gallagher said it represented Colony Capital on its new joint venture partnership, Alpine Energy Capital, with billionaire Sam Zell’s Equity Group Investments. Terms weren’t disclosed.

The team was led by partners Michael De Voe Piazza and Adam Turteltaub.

Kirkland & Ellis advised EGI with a team led by an attorney out of its Chicago office that included partners Anthony Speier and Chris Heasley in Houston.

Formerly known as Colony HB2 Energy, the new partnership will provide capital and asset management solutions to the U.S. upstream oil and gas industry. It will enable institutional investors to participate directly at the asset level without the overhead and reinvestment risks associated with the traditional industry structure. 

Zell said in a statement that the energy sector is being impacted by a shortage of capital, which is a direct result of the sector’s previous performance and investors’ inability to earn a return. “We have long history in investing in dislocated situations, of which this is an example,” he said.

Colony Capital chairman and CEO Tom Barrack said difficult industry conditions have persisted and only become more entrenched. “We look forward to what we can accomplish together on behalf of our investors,” he said.

Alpine’s first investment was the recently closed $500 million DrillCo financing with California Resources Corp., the largest oil and gas exploration and production company in the state. Alpine committed $320 million in the first tranche of the JV that will be used to develop 275 wells at California Resources’ flagship Elk Hills field. As The Lawbook previously reported, Willkie worked on that deal as well.

Alpine is headquartered in Houston and led by chairman Craig Perry and CIO Bill Wicker along with COO Michael McCoy and chief exploration officer Elliott Hough and Michael Bertuccio. “We are aggressively pursuing opportunities in the upstream oil and gas industry and look forward to speaking with operators in need of capital solutions,” Perry said.

Los Angeles-based Colony Capital has $55 billion in assets under management, including $14 billion from Digital Bridge, which manages investments in digital infrastructure assets such as cell towers, small cells, fiber and data centers. The firm also has holdings in the healthcare, industrial and hospitality property sectors as well as real estate.

Anthem Sports buys majority stake in HDNet from billionaire Mark Cuban

Anthem Sports & Entertainment announced that it acquired a majority interest in Dallas billionaire Mark Cuban’s HDNet for an undisclosed sum.

Mark Cuban Cos. associate general counsel Adam Boyd didn’t respond to a request for legal counsel on the deal.

Cuban and AEG will become equity investors in Anthem as part of the deal along with entertainer Steve Harvey.

HDNet is parent of the AXS TV and HDNet Movies networks. Anthem is the Canadian owner of sports-focused channels like Fight Network and Pursuit.

Anthem will manage the channels along with AXS TV’s library of owned programming, including wrestling, mixed-martial arts and entertainment content. The buyer estimates the deal will give it channels reaching nearly 150 million TV homes worldwide, including 110 million served by traditional cable and satellite distributors in the U.S. and Canada.

AXS TV and HDNet Movies will continue operating out of Denver and Los Angeles. The combined company will include Anthem’s production center in Toronto and production facilities in Nashville and Europe.

Houston partner Hillary Holmes led the team, which included Houston associates Justine Robinson, Monika Kluziak and Whitney Bosworth and Dallas associate Eric Pacifici. Houston partner James Chenoweth counseled on tax aspects.

If the acquisition isn’t consummated, Contango will use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including funding future potential acquisitions or a portion of its 2019 capital program.

UPDATE/OTHER

Other trouble from activist investors: Last week 9.5% Callon Petroleum investor Paulson & Co. called on the company to scrap its planned $3.2 billion acquisition of Carrizo Oil & Gas and put itself on the market. The hedge fund – led by billionaire John Paulson – said it plans to vote against the deal, saying the 25% premium isn’t justifiable given Carrizo’s inferior assets, which include oil and gas properties in the Eagle Ford. Neither company commented. Callon’s general counsel is Michol Ecklund and Carrizo’s is Gerry Morton, who also is VP of business development. Kirkland advised Callon on the deal while Baker Botts assisted Carrizo.

Spanish oil giant Repsol in advanced talks to buy some of ExxonMobil’s deepwater assets in the Gulf of Mexico for $1 billion, Reuters reported citing unnamed sources. Both companies declined comment. The transaction would require approval from partners in the assets, which may have preferential rights to buy them, the news agency said. ExxonMobil is targeting $15 billion in asset sales through 2021 to raise cash to return to shareholders and fund big projects. Reuters reported last fall that the company hired JP Morgan to advise it on its options for the Gulf of Mexico properties, including the Julia oilfield and 9.4% of the Heidelberg field and 23% of the Lucius field, both of which are owned in part by Occidental Petroleum Corp., which picked them up as part of its purchase of Anadarko Petroleum. ExxonMobil confirmed Sept. 6 that it was in exclusive talks to sell its Norwegian oil and gas assets to Var Energi, a deal that could reach $4 billion. ExxonMobil’s general counsel is Randall Ebner.

Its chief legal officer is Harry Zimmerman, who previously helped sell Pet DRx, a multi-clinic veterinary roll-up that was near bankruptcy before he joined. VCA Antech picked it up in 2010 for $41.25 million (VCA itself was purchased by Mars Inc. in 2017 for $9.1 billion).
