Liquidity Transaction

A Liquidity Transaction, or Liquidity Event, is a transaction in which holders of a company's stock have the ability to sell their shares for cash or a cash equivalent (e.g. a public company's stock), either by selling their shares as part of the sale of the entire company, or a tender offer (either selling their shares back to the company or to a third party interested in buying a stake in the company).
