While there is a long-lasting history of empirical research on M&A in a cross-industry context, our knowledge about industry specific drivers of M&A is more than limited. Given this background, the machinery industry is an attractive segment to address questions on M&A motives – as it is on the one hand a very fragmented industry and on the other hand a bundle of in some parts highly consolidated sub-industries. In his thesis, Mr. Geiger makes an effort to answer the question why firms in the machinery industry follow M&A strategies and how successful they are in their transactions. This is not only a remarkable endeavour because Mr. Geiger uses some hand selected unique datasets, but in particular, because he presents state-of-the-art analyses which are competitive and meet highest international standards. The thesis on hand carefully identifies and addresses open research questions related to M&A strategies in a very specific industry. Its primary objective was to identify M&A motives for different types of companies in various sub-segments of the machinery industry by analyzing stock price and accounting data. Thusly objectifying managerial action allows deriving recommendations for financing practice.

Download or read book The Influence of Industry Concentration on Merger Motives written by Florian Geiger and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By linking industrial organization theory and capital market research, we provide empirical evidence that merger motives of firms are influenced by their prevailing industry concentration. We analyze wealth effects on target, acquiring and rival firms for 330 transactions in the machinery industry between 1997 and 2007. We show that mergers in concentrated industries are primarily motivated to achieve productive efficiency gains. This seems surprising, as we rather expect monopolistic collusion motives. For fragmented industries, on the other hand, we observe both productive efficiency and monopolistic collusion motives for firm mergers. In the absence of wealth transfers there seems to be no indication for agency problems. Our findings suggest that the traditional research on merger motives falls short by not considering structural market differences in the form of industry concentration.

Download or read book Mergers and Acquisitions written by Duarte Brito and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on twenty years of merger analysis literature, this single source offers practical solutions to a wide range of problems faced by specialists working in the field of mergers and acquisitions. The authors take an industrial organization approach in which effects on profits, on consumer surplus and on overall welfare are of greatest relevance. The focus is primarily on horizontal mergers, although vertical and conglomerate mergers are addressed when producers of complementary goods are involved. Among the issues and elements examined, the authors provide answers to the following: How does a merger affect the insider firm's profitabifity? Why may outsiders stock market value increase or decrease following a merger? What are the expected welfare effects of a merger? What sort of arguments can be used for merger defense? How do economists model the firm's merging decision? How can the authorities simulate the price effects of a horizontal merger? Is post-merger entry likely to compensate the effects of a merger? The discussion proceeds from an analysis of the simplest exercise of market power to evermore complex merger environments. In their detailed coverage of policy evaluation of proposed acquisitions, the authors provide a merger simulation toolkit which can be applied to important recent judicial decisions in the field. This book will be of great value not only to academics in microeconomics and industrial organization, but also to lawyers and officials seeking expert practical guidance in the business or administrative responsibilities surrounding mergers and acquisitions.
