Book excerpt: Real estate tycoon Sam Zell had big ideas for Tribune Co. when he took control of the media conglomerate in late 2007 through an $8.2 billion leveraged buyout. But the iconic company, parent of the Chicago Tribune, filed for bankruptcy less than a year later. This marked the beginning of a four-year odyssey through Chapter 11 reorganization—brought on by falling advertising revenue amid a $13 billion debt burden that the deal created. The company's saga mirrored the U.S. financial crisis, in which speculative risk using exotic investment instruments helped trigger what became known as the Great Recession. When the company finally emerged from court protection at the end of 2012 under new ownership and a newly appointed board of directors, it did so with a diminished value and a tarnished reputation. Chicago Tribune reporters Michael Oneal and Steve Mills rely on thousands of pages of court documents, dozens of interviews, and hours of observation in U.S. bankruptcy court to tell the story of Tribune Co.'s journey through bankruptcy. They place a spotlight on the key decisions and missed opportunities that marked a perilous time in the history of the company, the media industry, and the economy. Their four-part series, repackaged into The Tribune Saga: A Leveraged Buyout, An Insatiable Wall Street and a Bankruptcy Odyssey, serves as a compelling resource for law, business, and journalism students and for anybody interested in how Zell’s buyout of Tribune Co. became “a messy product of the unchecked Wall Street deal-making and aggressive financial engineering that soon would threaten the American economy.”

Book excerpt: What happens to companies that had been taken over through an LBO; how have they performed since the takeover; how have the communities been affected; what happened to companies that amassed tremendous debt to avoid being taken over?

Journal of High Yield Bond Research This comprehensive new study examines the impact of the 1978 Bankruptcy Reform Act on firms that file under Chapter 11 and on investors who own shares or bonds in financially distressed corporations. Demonstrating that high average returns often accompany wise investment choices concerning bankrupt firms, the authors explain how to spot potential investment targets, assess investment risk, and profit from investing in firms undergoing reorganization following a bankruptcy filing. The legal issues involved in investing in bankrupt firms, the environment within which the bankrupt firm operates, and the relationship between stock market efficiency and bankrupt firms also receive thorough coverage. Both individual and institutional investors looking for new investment opportunities and students of corporate finance and financial management will find here important new insights into the investment potential of financially distressed firms. The volume begins with an introduction which sets the stage for the discussion that follows by describing the reasons for the increasing rates of corporate bankruptcy in the 1980s. The authors go on to explore the incentives for investing in bankrupt firms and offer pointers for investors considering such a move. In order to provide the reader with the tools necessary to evaluate potential investment opportunities, the authors also describe the reasons for corporate financial failure, the effects of reorganization on a firm, the differences between old and new bankruptcy laws, and the legal settlement of bankruptcy claims. An analytical model for predicting successful reorganization--and thus a potentially lucrative investment target--is described and illustrated as are models of stock market efficiency. The study concludes with four detailed case studies that illustrate the process of bankruptcy and the possible investment outcomes. The text is accompanied by numerous explanatory tables and figures.
