if asean companies fail they will buy them like this
Spokespeople for ExxonMobil and Pioneer declined to comment. The  Wall Street Journal  first reported on Thursday that a deal is imminent.
Pioneer was long seen as an attractive target for ExxonMobil as it has a significant presence in some of the most productive areas of the Permian shale basin.
ExxonMobil, which is valued at about US$436 billion, last year earned a record US$55.7 billion on sky-high oil and gas prices and ended the year with US$29.6 billion in cash and equivalents

America is too big to fail!

ExxonMobil in advanced talks for US$60 billion acquisition of Pioneer: sources

Published Fri, Oct 06, 2023 · 10:35 am
EXXONMOBIL is in advanced talks to acquire Pioneer Natural Resources in a deal that could value the Permian shale basin producer at about US$60 billion, sources familiar with the matter said on Friday (Oct 6).
The acquisition would expand ExxonMobil&rsquo s footprint in one of the most lucrative areas of the US oil patch. Pioneer, with a market capitalisation of about US$50 billion, is the third-largest producer of oil in the Permian basin after Chevron and ConocoPhillips.
If the negotiations conclude successfully, an agreement could be reached in the coming days, the three sources said, asking not to be identified because the matter is confidential.

Mah Kah Loon, chief executive at EY Corporate Finance, said that deal sizes are also smaller on average. 
&ldquo This reflects a more cautious investment strategy from acquirers amid uncertainties in the business environment,&rdquo he said.
Robson Lee, a partner at Kennedys Legal Solutions, said the smaller deal sizes also reflect the challenges companies may face in securing deal financing.
Still, there has been an uptick in transactions in the second half of the year, he said.
Higher interest rates and an increasingly difficult financing environment have necessitated business restructuring and the sale of distressed assets private equity firms are undertaking portfolio reviews and embarking on disposal plans to realise previous investments to optimise returns, he said.
&ldquo It is presently a buyers&rsquo market for cash-rich companies,&rdquo he added.
BOA&rsquo s Siah noted also that in sectors that have been driven by low cost and easy access to capital, companies may now &ldquo face a new reality&rdquo .
Strategic mergers between competitors may make sense to preserve value and extract cost synergies, he added.
Wayne Lee, CEO of W Capital Markets, said deal volumes were hit by a gap between buyers&rsquo and sellers&rsquo expectations. This gap has narrowed considerably.
&ldquo In 2023, (companies) are trying to chase after good deals,&rdquo he said, adding that market leaders in certain fields do not mind &ldquo paying a premium&rdquo to attract investors.
Sectors with increased deal activity in the region include technology, media and telecommunications business services consumer goods and healthcare, W Capital&rsquo s Lee said.
BOA&rsquo s Siah said themes such as healthcare and the energy transition are among areas to watch. &ldquo We are seeing and have been engaged on a number of transactions to date, with more to come for the rest of the year,&rdquo he said.
He is also expecting a rebound in transactions in the industrials and consumer or retail space in the coming year, as the post-pandemic, post-inflation business landscape becomes clearer for these companies.
Sectors under pressure in a higher-rate environment, such as real estate and infrastructure, will experience a re-pricing of assets. This could prompt divestitures, he said.
EY&rsquo s Mah expects more deals relating to the reconfiguration of supply chains and trade routes as well as investments in digital capability and acquisitions, food security, healthcare and healthtech.
At-risk companies that may be pushed into deals include those with thin margins, and those hit by inflation costs but yet are unable to pass on such costs to customers.
Any recovery in dealmaking is, however, likely to be slow.
Joe Mantone, editorial lead at S& P Global Market Intelligence, said there are still impediments to dealmaking, given factors such as tougher macroeconomic conditions and high interest rates. He expects M& A activity to &ldquo remain steady and slowly climb&rdquo .

Regional M& A activity picking up as US, Europe markets recover

Uma Devi

Published Thu, Oct 05, 2023 · 5:27 am  Updated Thu, Oct 05, 2023 · 2:40 pm
DEAL activity in South-east Asia is showing nascent signs of a recovery, and market players see signs that 2023 may end better than it started on the mergers and acquisitions (M& A) front.
M& A activity has spiked in the US and European markets in the last couple of months, thanks to lower equity market volatility and a return of initial public offerings, said Martin Siah, Singapore country executive at Bank of America (BOA).
A more benign interest rate outlook is also supporting the acquisition finance market, he added.
 
&ldquo We expect this renewed confidence to permeate to Asia, and particularly South-east Asia in due course, as cross-border M& A appetite picks up,&rdquo he said.
Asia-Pacific deal activity in the first eight months of this year was down 21.5 per cent, going by GlobalData statistics, which counted 9,527 deals comprising M& A, private equity and venture financing deals. 
The number of M& A deals fell 13.1 per cent the volume of private equity deals went down by 15.5 per cent, and venture financing deals, by 28.8 per cent.

Squeeze on public services

Higher yields also mean that the government must pay more to service its debt &mdash with less money available to spend elsewhere.
The US government is currently sitting on a $33 trillion debt pile and is expected to incur more than $1 trillion in average annual interest costs over the next decade.

Singaporean sovereign wealth fund GIC, one of the world&rsquo s most influential investors, sold its stake in a Vista Equity Partners fund after the buyout firm&rsquo s founder was embroiled in a tax scandal, according to people familiar with the matter. GIC disposed of its holding of roughly $300mn at a discount, leaving the Singaporean fund with a loss on its investment, the people said. It is rare for an investor to sell a stake in a buyout fund for reputational reasons, underlining the challenge facing Vista as it now tries to draw a line under a scandal that saw its billionaire founder Robert Smith agree a $140mn settlement in 2020 with US authorities to resolve a criminal tax investigation. Smith admitted to his involvement in a tax scheme that allowed him to evade paying millions of dollars in taxes. Several of Vista&rsquo s senior dealmakers, including Brian Sheth and Alan Cline, left following the settlement. Sheth quit a month after Smith entered a non-prosecution agreement with the Department of Justice in October 2020 and Cline departed the following year. Wellcome Trust, the UK&rsquo s largest charitable donor and a large institutional investor, also divested from Vista&rsquo s funds following the scandal, people familiar with the matter said. At the time of the settlement, Smith apologised to Vista&rsquo s investors for &ldquo any issues or concerns&rdquo it may have caused, saying that &ldquo I should never have put myself in this situation&rdquo . Based in Austin, Texas, Vista is trying to raise $20bn for its first flagship buyout fund since the firm was shaken by the scandal. It has until October to raise the money or the firm will have to ask its investors for an extension to the deadline, said people familiar with the matter. Smith, a former Goldman Sachs banker, founded Vista in 2000 and the firm was initially seeded with money from software entrepreneur Robert Brockman. Under its founder, Vista grew rapidly, acquiring a reputation for its expertise in investing in software companies, and it manages more than $100bn in assets. The group has recently sold large software companies such as Cvent and Ping Identity, while acquiring Avalara and Citrix Systems, in two of the largest private equity takeovers in recent years. The buyout industry is confronting its toughest conditions in years as higher interest rates drive up the cost of buying companies and a sluggish market for initial public offerings and a slump in takeovers make selling them harder. With distributions from private equity firms muted, more investors are choosing to commit less to new funds. Vista&rsquo s own fundraising effort comes amid concerns over whether the returns made backing tech companies during the past two decades can be sustained. The reputational risk generated by the tax scandal has also weighed on the fundraising, with some investors telling the Financial Times they chose not to participate. Since GIC ditched its holdings in Vista, the sovereign wealth fund has co-invested with other private equity firms in deals in which Vista also participated, said a person familiar with the matter. Vista and GIC declined to comment. Wellcome Trust declined to comment on its relationship with Vista but said &ldquo we take ethical considerations very seriously when making investment decisions&rdquo and are &ldquo prepared to take action&rdquo if our expectations are not met. In a recent letter to investors, Smith noted that the new flagship fund is on track to be the &ldquo largest pool of capital&rdquo it has ever raised. Its previous flagship fund raised $16bn in 2018. In October 2021, Vista borrowed against its management company to raise $930mn, most of which was to invest in future funds, the FT has previously reported. In an effort to entice investors to back its new flagship fund, Vista adopted several tactics to accelerate the pace at which it returns money to investors. These include so-called net asset value financing, which involves a buyout firm borrowing against a portfolio of assets. Earlier this year, Vista hired Goldman to arrange a $1.5bn loan secured against its portfolio companies, the FT has previously reported. Some of the money was used to pay investors. During its fundraising push, Vista has sold off assets to generate profits for investors, monetising more than $14bn in investments since November 2021. &ldquo At a time when many investors are struggling to create realisation opportunities for their portfolio and limited partners, Vista has delivered consistent returns,&rdquo Smith noted, according to someone who has seen the investor letter. The letter did not mention whether the firm would seek an extension on its October fundraising deadline.
