Download or read book Merger and Acquisition Strategies written by Angelo Dringoli and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-28 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decision to carry out a merger or acquisition is certainly a risky one, not least because of the number of variables influencing the final outcome. It is also a decision frequently based on the wrong objectives and an incorrect evaluation process. With this in mind, this important new book offers solutions for reducing the high percentage of mergers and acquisitions (M&As) that fail. It adopts a normative approach, using theoretical analysis to show what managers could and should do to increase shareholders’ value through successful M&A strategies. It also explores the conditions that are suitable for favouring a certain type of M&A (horizontal, vertical or diversified) over the others. In conclusion, the book presents case studies of successful M&A strategies providing a link between theory and practice.
Download or read book The Value Killers written by Nuno Fernandes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a business climate marked by escalating global competition and industry disruption, successful mergers and acquisitions are increasingly vital to the growth and profitability of many corporations. If history is any guide, 60 to 70 per cent of new mergers will fail – and will destroy shareholder value. To date, analyses of the M&A failure rate tend to focus on individual causes – e.g., culture clashes, valuation methods, or CEO overconfidence – rather than examining the problem holistically. The Value Killers is the first book based on a holistic analysis of successful and unsuccessful transactions. Based on research, interviews with top executives, and case studies, this book identifies the key causes of failures and successes and offers prescriptions to increase the odds that future transactions will deliver all the anticipated synergies. The Value Killers offers practical advice in the form of 5 Golden Rules. These rules will help managers and boards to ensure that target companies are properly valued; potential synergies and risks are identified in advance; checks and balances are installed to make sure that the pros and cons of the transaction are rationally and objectively evaluated; mechanisms are created that will trigger termination of bad deals; and obstacles to successful post-merger integrations are assessed (and solutions developed) before the deal closes. Each chapter includes questions for executives considering future M&As to allow them to see whether they are on the right track or not.
Download or read book Remix Strategy written by Benjamin Gomes-Casseres and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Create and capture value, no matter what path you've chosen. How to Create Joint Value Alliances, partnerships, acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures are no longer the exception in most businesses—they are part of the core strategy. As managers look to external partners for resources and capabilities, they need a practical roadmap to ensure that these relationships will create value for their firm. They must answer questions like these: Which business combinations do we need? How should we govern them? Will their results justify our investments? Benjamin Gomes-Casseres explains how companies create value by “remixing” resources with other companies. Based on decades of consulting and academic research, Remix Strategy shows how three laws shape the success of any business combination: • First Law: The combination must have the potential to create more value than the parties could create on their own. Which elements from each business need to be combined to create joint value? • Second Law: The combination must be designed and managed to realize the joint value. Which partners best fit our strategic goals? How should we manage the integration? • Third Law: The value earned by the parties must motivate them to contribute to the collaboration. How will we share the joint value created? Will the returns shift over time? Supported by examples from a wide range of industries and companies, and filled with practical tools for applying the three laws, this book helps managers design and lead a coherent strategy for creating joint value with outside partners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most literature research argues that Merger&Acquisitions is a strategy by which companies gain access to new resources, increase revenues, efficiency and cost reducing to create value. Many multinational companies around the world today are the result of M&A between two or more companies.As strategy, every deal should realize positive results in terms of value. Instead, recent studies have found a high failure rate, regardless of sector, country, or historical phase. The debate in literature about M&A phenomenon is extensive and authoritative: this book fits within this discussion with some peculiarities, by focusing on the Strengths, Opportunities, Weaknesses and Threats of a successful deal, so that it has a real strategic value. In particular, Chapter 1 is dedicated to the introduction of the strategic relevance of M&A and its key factors. In connection with this, in the second chapter, the aim is to deepen the study of the key factors that the acquisition team has to tune together in the complex evaluation process that a successful deal requires. Using the strategic tool, SWOT analysis, we study the different Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats always under the value creation perspective. Between the Strengths, a particular focus is on the evaluation process, with all the implications in terms of synergies evaluation and financial structure management.Chapter 3 opens a window on some “serial acquirers” that consider M&A the strategic base of their wealth creation mission. With the presentation of the case studies, the aim is to draw the attention on the strategic dimension of corporate acquisitions. In the Appendix 1 and 2, the debate moves to the lens of practitioners, with a focus on the normative and tax determinants.Francesco Greggio, as advisor, in Appendix 1 gives a real practitioners vision on the limits and opportunities in Italian low for merger and acquisition strategies. In the Appendix 2, Gino Reolon, Colonel of Guardia di Finanza (fiscal police), highlights that merger and acquisition are operations intrinsically linked to international tax planning. Giovanna Mariani is Associate Professor of Corporate Finance at University of Pisa, in Italy. She has taught financial management for just short of thirty years now over a range of undergraduates, postgraduates. She has written and published several monographs and academic articles on corporate finance, corporate governance, business planning and entrepreneurship.

Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 75, University of Canberra (School of Management, Faculty of Business, Government & Law), course: Master of Business Administration, language: English, abstract: In today's dynamically competitive environment where no advantage is sustainable for long, strategic alliances, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) undoubtedly have built their own reputation to yield 'win-win' situations for several businesses. Despite the sharp upheaval of their evidentiary failures, the significance of M&A keeps pushing companies to sustain competitive advantages through access to the combined wealth of resources benefiting firms in lowering manufacturing costs, reducing financial burden, entering new markets, growing opportunities, sharing risks, and diffusing innovative technologies. Synchronously, increasing competition, structural and cultural differences, and globalisation have brought several new strategic challenges making M&A riskier and more intricate. Therefore, it is foremost essential for organisations' strategic leadership to comprehensively understand the mutual intents, recognise the underlying drivers outlining diversification of shared competencies, and entrepreneurially evaluate the rationales of companies' portfolios, industries' environment and value creating potentials.
