简介 |
<p><span lang="EN-US">Using bond transaction data, we introduce a new measure of rollover risk, the difference between market value and par value of corporate debt, and demonstrate its negative impact on mergers and acquisitions (M&A). </span><span lang="EN-US">Short-term debt exacerbates rollover risk, leading to a short-maturity overhang. To explain these findings, we develop a dynamic M&A model that incorporates cash accumulation, rollover risk, and payment choices. Our analysis reveals that acquirors facing higher rollover loss are more sensitive to changes in cash reserves, allocate less to acquisitions, and prefer equity as a payment method over cash. Empirical evidence supports our model's mechanism and highlights distinguishing roles of short maturity and high rollover risk.</span></p>
