A reverse takeover (RTO) or reverse merger is a company takeover by exchanging shares ( e.g. stock swap ) in which the owners of the acquired company hold the majority of the acquiring company after the transaction has been completed because the acquiring company was worth relatively less than that adopted.
If (only) the company taking over is listed , one also speaks of a reverse IPO .
