There are generally three options for structuring a merger or acquisition deal: Stock purchase. The buyer purchases the target companys stock from its stockholders. Asset sale/purchase. The buyer purchases only assets and assumes liabilities that are specifically indicated in the purchase agreement. Merger.
Stock-for-Stock Acquisition (B Reorganization) The buyer need not acquire the entire 80% of target stock at once, but must own at least 80% upon completion of the acquisition. This allows the buyer to acquire the targets shares gradually in what is known as a creeping acquisition.
While it is not always the case, the employees to be laid off, at least at first, are usually those of the target company. Typically, the most vulnerable jobs are those of the targeted companys CEO, CFO, senior executives, and managers. These positions are often given severance packages with their departure.
A merger agreement (or definitive merger agreement) is the legal contract that is drawn up and signed by both parties when two companies merge. Its terms and conditions can be quite detailed, and it usually spells out several parameters regarding staffing actions to be implemented.
Another classic example of a so-called merger of equals. The United Technologies and Raytheon merger is also an all-stock transaction, where Raytheon shareholders receive shares in the new company, while UTC shareholders maintain a majority stake.

MAs can be paid for by cash, equity, or a combination of the two, with equity being the most common. When a company pays for an MA with cash, it strongly believes the value of the shares will go up after synergies are realized. For this reason, a target company prefers to be paid in stock.
There are two basic merger structures: direct and indirect. In a direct merger, the target company and the buying company directly merge with each other. In an indirect merger, the target company will merge with a subsidiary company of the buyer.
A reverse triangular merger, where the buyer forms a new subsidiary that merges with the target company, resulting in the target surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the buyer. This is the most common structure for corporate MA.
