摘要

本研究以併購的協商方式為主要的研究對象，使用1977年到2015年主併公司與目標公司皆位於美國的併購案，測試公開收購股權要約(Tender Offer)在不同程度的區域賭博偏好中，是否會影響願意支付給目標公司的併購溢酬，還有對併購後短、長期股票報酬和長期營運績效的影響。實證結果顯示區域賭偏好越高，在此區域內的主併公司使用公開收購股權要約(Tender Offer)的意願越高。當主併公司的區域賭博偏好越高，目標公司所能獲得的併購溢酬越高。主併公司的短期宣告效果呈現明顯的正向獲益，不會受到賭博偏好的特性所影響。而主併公司在區域賭博偏好高和低的區域內，使用公開收購股權要約(Tender Offer)對長期市場績效並不存在顯著影響。然而，在併購後的長期營運績效中則發現在高賭博偏好區域的主併公司，採用公開收購股權要約(Tender Offer)會使長期營運績效顯著較佳。
