Facteurs pour le succès des M&A (Merger & Acquisition = Fusion/acquisition)
A retenir:
- "M&A is a tool, not a strategy" [...] We found that companies whose deals reaped long-term rewards use M&A to
support strategy, not as a strategy in itself.
- Les sociétés qui on fait de M&A réussies ne les font pas pour des raisons défensives ou pour bloquer des concurrents.
- Un des éléments les plus importants est la Due Diligence (audit) de la société qui sera rachetée
Dans le graphe ci-dessous, en bleu, les sociétés qui ont réussi, en marron, les sociétés qui se sont plantées, répondent à la question : "quel est votre objectif pour vos acquisitions ?"
Quelques commentaires complémentaires concernant les facteurs de succès des M&A :
- When M&A practitioners plan and execute a merger, they go to great lengths to tilt the odds in favor of creating shareholder value.
- Some favored techniques—such as assembling a world class M&A team, modifying the organizational design of the acquiring company, and adding systems to smooth integration—can help but do not guarantee success.
- Interviews with executives at some of the most acquisitive US companies showed that those reaping the greatest long-term rewards from the markets often take a distinctive approach to M&A.
- The markets are more likely to reward companies that focus on their strategic goals and choose acquisitions that complement their distinctive capabilities
