U.S. capital markets were mostly shut to the oil and gas industry last year given the sector’s out-of-favor status among investors. The result was fewer securities offerings transactions handled by Texas lawyers overall, according to exclusive data compiled by The Texas Lawbook’s Corporate Deal Tracker.

The number of securities deals slid by almost quarter last year to 166, versus 218 the year before.
