cash-out merger

A quick definition of cash-out merger:

A cash-out merger is when one company buys another company and pays the shareholders of the bought company in cash. This is different from other types of mergers where the shareholders may receive stock in the buying company instead of cash. It's like if you had a lemonade stand and someone offered to buy it from you for money instead of giving you their own lemonade stand in exchange.

A more thorough explanation:

A cash-out merger is a type of merger where shareholders of the target company receive cash for their shares. This is also known as a cash merger or freeze-out merger. It is a way for the acquiring company to gain full ownership of the target company by buying out the shareholders.

For example, if Company A wants to acquire Company B, they may offer to buy all of the outstanding shares of Company B for a certain price per share. If the shareholders of Company B agree to sell their shares, they will receive cash in exchange and Company A will become the sole owner of Company B.

Cash-out mergers are often used when the acquiring company wants to take full control of the target company and does not want to share ownership with the previous shareholders. It can also be a way for the acquiring company to eliminate competition or gain access to new markets.

just my opinion but grade inflation is probably more of an undergrad thing since law school grades tend to be on a curve

While representing himself in court, McKinley's sentence was reduced from 100 years to 25, a sentence he served in full. While still incarcerated, he took the LSAT, or Law School Admission Test, and applied to law school - no shit, thats impressive how much he lowered his sentence being pro say
