SharkRepellent.net The SharkRepellent.net Takeover Defense Profile provides an overview of a company's key takeover defenses. This report can help investment professionals understand how a company has chosen to defend itself from potential unsolicited takeovers and proxy contests. It covers the board's structure, the ability of shareholders to call special meetings and remove directors, details of poison pill plans and whether or not the company has \"opted out\" of any state takeover statutes. The report also includes a benchmarking section allowing easy comparison of key defense provisions to industry peers as well as firms in the S&P 500, DJIA, Nasdaq 100 and the Fortune 500.
