Download or read book Acquisitions and Corporate Strategy written by David R. King and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate restructuring (acquisitions, alliances and divestment) is a visible form of corporate strategy. For example, firm investments in buying and selling assets exceed the gross domestic product of the majority of nations. Most research in this area examines acquisitions, but informing practice is limited by examining acquisitions in isolation or using a narrow focus. For example, a lingering problem is that average acquisition performance is consistently around zero, suggesting a need to identify practically relevant relationships. In addressing this need, research on three fundamental questions is covered: 1) How do acquisitions relate to other corporate strategy options?; 2) What helps to predict acquisition performance?; and 3) What are persistent acquisition research issues? The first question is intended to overcome a research limitation that acquisitions are often examined independent of other corporate strategies, including internal development, alliances, and divestment. The second question addresses novel relationships associated with the primary focus of acquisition research in examining what drives acquisition performance. The third question reflects on the underlying complexity of the phenomenon that makes it a challenge to identify what drives acquisition performance. Overall, the intent of presenting ideas on these fundamental questions is to illustrate promising areas for future research. This book presents the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest to researchers, academics, and advanced students in the fields of strategic management, international business, and organizational studies.

Download or read book Success Factors of Corporate Spin Offs written by Alexander Tübke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Spin-Off processes are very interesting phenomena formanagement theory and practice. In theory, Corporate Spin-Offs areboth a driver and a result of organisational change, offering thepossibility to investigate an area where companies are genuinelysharing experience and best practice. Although Corporate Spin-Offs canbe clearly distinguished from other types of start-ups and divestmentsand despite combining key-characteristics in a unique way, existinginvestigation is sparse and heterogeneous. In practice, CorporateSpin-Off processes are frequent and highly successful, but not aswell-regarded as Merger & Acquisition strategies and less understoodby the decision-makers.The present work was designed to meet these demands by analysing thesuccess factors of Corporate Spin-Offs, their relative contribution tothe process and the role of the different actors involved. Based on anextensive literature review and a new Spin-Off typology, a broad rangeof success factors and success dimensions is proposed. Using acombination of multivariate models, the responses from 211 Europeancompanies to a questionnaire are analysed and typologies derived.Among the single factors, customer participation, the transfer ofmanagerial and market-related experience and the main motivation arethe most important ones for the Spin-Off process and its success. Thetypologies reveal characteristic factors sets, showing for examplethat high-growth Spin-Offs benefited over-proportionally from sectorgrowth or the access to relations with customers or suppliers. Thisproduces a new and comprehensive perspective on the relativecontribution of each success factor, their interaction, and thebehaviour of both the parentand the Spin-Off companies in theprocess. These results are highly valuable for managers, scientists inthe field and policy-makers.
