We find that higher initial offers are followed by fewer bid revisions and an increased likelihood of being the winning bidder. Though there is a positive relation between a higher first offer and the final premium\, bidder returns at the first public announcement of the deal are positively related to the initial bid strength in target-initiated deals. In bidder-initiated transactions\, stronger initial bids correlate with higher combined target and acquirer returns. In a similar vein\, more precise initial bids also increase the likelihood of target acceptance and result in higher acquirer returns in case of auctions\, bidder-initiated and cash-paid transactions. \n  URL:https://uwm.edu/business/event/deal-process/ LOCATION:Lubar Hall\, N440\, 3202 N.
