Abstract
This paper examines the performance of bidders with a hubris management during a takeover bid. Data for the study comprises of successful bids in the UK during the 1990s, which have been identified as having a hubris management. Valuation ratios and bid premium sizes are the measures used to identify the sample of hubris bidders. Results show that hubris bidders significantly lose on the announcement of a bid.
