Abstract

Les acquisitions de sociétés à l'aide d'un holding endetté, ou leverage buy-outs (LBO), ont connu un essor remarquable aux Etats-Unis (depuis les années 1970) et en Europe (à partir des années 1980). Ces opérations permettent aux acquéreurs (capital-investisseurs, personnes physiques...), de conserver ou d'acquérir le contrôle de la société visée tout en minimisant leurs apports en fonds propres. La première partie de cet article est consacrée aux montages de ces opérations et à la mobilisation des effets de leviers juridiques et financiers. Après une présentation du marché français des LBO, la seconde partie étudie l'évolution de la performance de la cible et la longévité de ces opérations.
