Celina Duong is a sophomore finance major who participated in the Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP), researching why public restaurant firms have opted to shift to private ownership.

Under the mentorship of Professor of Hospitality Melih Madanoglu, Duong investigated how the wealth of shareholders influences the size of bid premiums for restaurant firms and uncovering the characteristics that determine the magnitude of these premiums.

Duong sought to reveal insights into how effective governance provisions can enhance operational efficiency, strategic decision-making, and ultimately, shareholder value in the context of going-private transitions within the restaurant industry.

Governance provisions are guidelines that help organizations operate in the right way and can include aspects such as making sure a company both understands and completes its obligations to shareholders.
