MERGER DEFICIT
An accounting situation where the total worth of share capital used to buy another firm is less than the total value of the equity that is being bought. The merger does not follow an all-stock acquisition. A merger deficit takes place when a firm takes the amount that it earned in new stock offerings to purchase the stock of another firm.
