CDT Roundup: Biopharma, Logistics and a $33B Take-Private Power Deal

March 8, 2026 Jason Philyaw

For the week ended March 7, the CDT Roundup saw 13 deals with a total reported value of about $48.1 billion. Thanks to a $33.4 billion take-private deal for yet another power provider, that’s better than the 11-deal $7.3 billion clocked the week prior. And it’s far better than the seven-deal $2.2 billion week reported this time last year.

Have a deal we should include next week?

The CDT Roundup is a regular feature from The Texas Lawbook highlighting the work Texas dealmakers are doing inside and outside the state.

Please let us know at CDTRoundup@texaslawbook.net by sharing a news release or a short blurb containing the date of the deal, a brief description, a link to any public announcement, the lead lawyers and their offices, as well as any Texas lawyers who advised on the deal.
