Telecom M&A Transactions

Corporate attorney Philippa Balestrieri authored a LexisNexis Practical Guidance® article exploring the outlook for mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the U.S. telecommunications industry. Ms. Balestrieri notes that despite a slowdown in M&A activity during the Biden Administration, the technology, media and communications sectors seem poised for a rebound in the near term, with recent trends such as consolidation, cross-industry integration and increased data usage driving new opportunities.

She additionally reviews deal structures, post-closing operations and purchase agreements.
