Hewlett-Packard: The Advisers
Hewlett-Packard has struck a $13.25 billion deal for Electronic Data Systems Inc. And — shocker! — neither Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley is on the deal.
Instead, Citigroup and Evercore Partners advised Electronic Data on the deal, while J.P. Morgan Chase and Lehman Brothers advised Hewlett-Packard.
And, since there hasn’t been a really juicy technology deal in quite a while — read all the details about this one here — Deal Journal is mentioning the bankers by name. Evercore’s Roger Altman, William O. Hiltz and Naveen Nataraj worked with Citigroup’s Ray McGuire, Ben Druskin, Michael Tedesco, Ed Wehle, Brian Mass and Melissa Knox. (Deal Journal Trivia: Druskin was just promoted last week to co-head Citigroup’s global technology, media and telecom advisory group.) J.P. Morgan’s team included Doug Braunstein, Karl Will, Will Thiessen, Mark Zanoli and Curt Sigfstead. At Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, Hewlett-Packard’s legal adviser, the lead partners were Christopher Austin, Benet O’Reilly and Victor Lewkow.
