Unless you live under a very large rock you have probably noted the large number of deals involving special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) over the past few months.
Just last week, the Texas Lawbook recorded five SPAC mergers, which will take the targeted companies public without the expense and longer timeline of a traditional initial public offering.
The setup is ideal for nascent companies that want to access public capital to grow quickly, though just this week hospitality behemoth Fertitta Entertainment also jumped on the SPAC bandwagon with a $1.4 billion merger with New York-listed FAST Acquisition.
The increase in activity is good for the M&A market, but it also raises the question of whether the boom could eventually turn into a bust.
As part of their mandate, SPACs must make an acquisition within a set amount of time, usually 24 months, or return their cash to investors. That rule could squeeze some SPACs to make a sub-optimal deal as they approach their deadline.
“The longer it takes for a SPAC to deploy funds, the more pressure it is under to consummate a transaction at, potentially, any cost,” Opportune partner Lynn Loden and managing director Josh Sherman wrote in a recent blog post.
Somewhat forebodingly, Loden and Sherman also compared the recent SPAC frenzy to the shale boom, which went pear-shaped following a sustained drop in oil prices that began in 2014. The pair noted that energy-focused private equity funds raised more than $100 million in funds that needed to be invested.
“The result was an overinvestment in oil and gas acreage and asset development that either never materialized into a public vehicle or may have been brought to market too early…” they write. “Fast forward to today and it appears that an influx of new capital from SPAC IPO proceeds in 2020 may be helping to artificially escalate (price to earnings) ratios across all market sectors.”
Fortunately for SPAC skeptics, there were plenty of traditional deals last week. We saw the return of hydrocarbon deals as consolidation looms in the exploration and production sector with Enerplus’ $465 million takeover of Bruin E&P, which emerged from Chapter 11 last fall.
The oilfield services sector also saw some activity, with TETRA Technologies offloading its controlling stake in CSI Compressco to privately held Spartan Energy Partners.
Technology also got a boost from Austin-based Khoros’ acquisition of Flow.ai and from a $50 million investment led by Riverstone in EV charging specialist FreeWire.
The final week of January ended with a bang-up 18 transactions worth $9.449 billion. Those included M&A transactions worth $8.8 billion and three capital markets transactions worth $695 million. The work involved 182 lawyers at nine different firms.

Landcadia III, a special purpose acquisition firm owned by Houston hospitality mogul and Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta, plans to merge with Cincinnatti-based hardware and home improvement supplies distributor Hillman in a deal that values the combined entity at $2.64 billion.
Hillman is controlled by private equity firm CCMP Capital Advisors, which acquired a majority stake in the company in 2014. It will remain Hillman’s largest shareholder on closing, and the hardware company’s chief executive Doug Cahill will continue to lead the combined entity with the current management team.
The deal comes weeks after Fertitta’s Landcadia II closed on its $745 million acquisition of Golden Nugget online gaming, which is also owned by the Landry’s chief executive.

Proceeds from the deal will also include Landcadia III’s $500 million of cash in trust.
“The company expects to use the proceeds from the transaction to accelerate Hillman’s growth initiatives, substantially reduce existing debt, support marketing efforts, and provide additional working capital,” according to a release.
The combined company is expected to have about $741 million of debt net of $96 million of cash and cash equivalents on its consolidated balance sheet.
The Landcadia III sponsors and members of its board of directors and management team have agreed to a “lock-up” period of up to one year following the closing, subject to termination as early as approximately 180 days after closing if certain trading price targets are met.
Upon the closing of the transaction, targeted for the second quarter of 2021, existing Hillman shareholders are expected to own 49% of the combined company, with Landcadia III sponsors holding 5% , PIPE participants holding 20%, and public stockholders holding 26%.

Houston-based oil and gas player Bruin E&P is set to be taken over by Canadian independent Enerplus in a $465 million cash deal.

Bruin, which holds acreage in the oily Williston basin of North Dakota, emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy at the end of August.
Through the deal, Enerplus will gain 151,000 net acres in the Williston Basin, including 30,000 net acres contiguous with its own tier 1 acreage position. The acquisition includes about 24,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day net of existing production, 84 MMBOE of proved plus probable reserve, and an inventory of 111 net drilling locations, including drilled uncompleted wells.
“After the Acquisition, Enerplus estimates it will hold more than a decade of drilling inventory capable of sustaining production at 2021 levels, with additional drilling inventory upside on Bruin’s acreage if commodity prices strengthen,” Enerplus said in a statement.
