Whirlpool Wants Maytag

Whirlpool Corp. has crashed the bidding party for Maytag Corp., launching a surprise $2.3 billion cash and stock bid for its rival despite the potential antitrust concerns posed by merging two of America's top appliance makers. By some measures, the combined companies would control roughly three-quarters of the U.S. market for some key products. Analysts said the combined firm would have near-monopoly-level market shares, but Whirlpool's lead antitrust counsel said data analysts cited is misleading.

Whirlpool, Maytag in DOJ Review

Whirlpool Corp. and Maytag Corp. said Thursday they have complied with the government's second request in the antitrust review of the $1.4 billion merger. However, a close reading of the announcement reveals several troubling developments. Whirlpool said it would not close the deal before Feb. 27 without Department of Justice approval.

Maytag Deal: Up to You, Whirpool

With the original buyout bidder for Maytag Corp. on Monday pocketing a break-up fee and turning the auction for the ailing icon over to Whirlpool Corp., the focus in the three-month saga shifted to how the combination of the two appliance makers would fare. At $2.7 billion, Whirlpool's bid richly values Maytag, but the deal faces a number of challenges before -- and after -- closing.

Small Firms Use Flat Fees to Gain Edge

Whirlpool's fee arrangement with Warner Norcross is the latest example of flat-fee arrangements between law firms and corporations. Such relationships are often tied to convergence, or the consolidation of outside law firms. They can also be a prime opportunity for small to midsize law firms to collect work from marquee-level clients. "If we can give them predictability and learn to live with an appropriate set of incentives, they're happy and we're happy," said Jay Cragwall, a Warner Norcross litigator.
