What is a Reverse Merger?

A Reverse Merger is a process that allows a private company to become a publicly traded company in rapid fashion by buying control of an existing publicly held "shell" corporation and merging its business into it. A "shell" corporation is a publicly traded company that no longer has an operating business and has no or just nominal assets. The following is a list of some well known companies that became publicly held corporations by virtue of a reverse merger:

Berkshire Hathaway Inc.
Blockbuster Entertainment
Muriel Siebert & Co., Inc.
Occidental Petroleum Corporation
Tandy Corporation (Radio Shack)
The New York Stock Exchange
