Case Studies

I.            Energy Industry (One of the below)

-          SAGASCO Holdings Limited: https://hbr.org/product/sagasco-holdings-limited/HKS167-PDF-ENG

In the summer of 1993, Australia's Trade Practices Commission was considering whether or not to permanently enjoin Santos Limited from acquiring SAGASCO Holdings Limited. This merger was potentially of enormous significance, since Santos was the largest and SAGASCO the third largest on-shore natural gas producer in Australia. SAGASCO, which was fighting the takeover, argued that the merger would significantly reduce competition in the natural gas market. Santos countered that the gas industry was highly concentrated already and had always been disciplined by competition from other fuels. This case is primarily intended to illustrate the analysis of the competitive effects of a merger, but it can also be used to discuss the relationship between competition policy and the regulation of natural monopolies. 

-          Atlantic Energy/Delmarva Power & Light (A): https://hbr.org/product/atlantic-energy-delmarva-power-light-a/298034-PDF-ENG

Delmarva Power & Light and Atlantic Energy are neighboring electric utilities based in Delaware and New Jersey, respectively. In early 1996, they entered into merger negotiations, but were unable to reach an agreement on price because they could not agree on what impact deregulation would have on Atlantic. In the currently regulated electricity market, Atlantic was profitable even though it was one of the high-cost power producers in the region. But in a deregulated environment, where prices would surely fall, Atlantic might become unprofitable and, therefore, worth significantly less. The key issues are to determine how much to pay for Atlantic and how to structure a deal that will bridge the disagreements over value. Unlike certain situations where hedging can resolve uncertainty, there is no way to hedge either the speed of deregulation or the magnitude of price declines due to competition.

II.            Telecommunications (One of the below)

-          AT&T/McCaw Merger Negotiation:  https://hbr.org/product/american-telephone-telegraph-at-t-the-at-t-mccaw-merger-negotiation/UV2398-PDF-ENG

Set in September 1992, this exercise provides teams of students the opportunity to negotiate terms of a merger between AT&T and McCaw Cellular. AT&T, one of the largest U.S. corporations, was the dominant competitor in long-distance telephone communications in the United States. McCaw was the largest competitor in the rapidly growing cellular-telephone communications industry. Prior to the negotiations, AT&T had no position in cellular communications. This case and its companion (F-1143) are designed to allow students to be assigned roles to play. The case may pursue some or all of the following teaching objectives: exercising valuation skills, practicing strategic analysis, exercising bargaining skills, and illustrating practical aspects of mergers and acquisitions.

-          Amtelecom Group Inc.: https://hbr.org/product/amtelecom-group-inc/904N14-PDF-ENG

The CEO of Amtelecom Group Inc. (AGI) must make a recommendation to the board of directors regarding the best way to sell its Amtelecom Communications subsidiary. AGI owns and operates ICS Courier, a national fixed-route courier business, and Amtelecom Communications, a regional telecommunications, cable television, and Internet business. Amtelecom Communication's capital requirements are not being satisfied because cash is being diverted to ICS Courier to cover its losses. In addition, AGI's stock has been performing poorly. To alleviate these problems, the board has decided to sell off Amtelecom Communications. The three sales alternatives being considered are: selling to a strategic buyer, IPO via a common share offering, and IPO via an income trust offering.
