Energy Dominates as Deals Hit $18.4B (The Best Week Since November)

The week ending Jan. 17 saw 19 deals reported to the CDT Roundup with a total value of more than $18.4 billion.

The week prior had 18 deals valued at nearly $9 billion, and there were 19 deals worth about $7.4 billion during the same week last year. But last week was the best week by value since an absurd 21-deal, $75 billion week in early November.

The big deal last week was Mitsubishi’s announcement that it is entering the U.S. shale business by acquiring Dallas-based Aethon’s natural gas operations in the Haynesville Shale. Nearly 40 lawyers advised on the $7.5 billion deal. The Lawbook has them listed with our daily coverage here.

Last week had a handful of energy deals, fundings for AI-based startups, a cybersecurity merger, and one transaction that has the U.S. government investing in a missile manufacturer.

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.
