FINANCE

Example• Google bid to acquire Whatsapp for US $10

Bn but Whatsapp quoted US $19 Bn, thus leading to failure of this deal• Time Warner and AOL merger during the dot

com bubble burst which led to US $99 Bn loss to AOL.

TECHNOLOGY

Example• EBay and Skype in 2005 (and overestimating

possible synergy)

Page 15: Merger And Acquisition - Reasons for Failure and Counter Measures

CULTURE

Example• Hewlett Packard and Compaq merger in 2001

that resulted in US $13 billion loss in market value.

REGION

Example• Alcatel (United States) and Lucent (France)

in 2006

CORE VALUES

Example• Sprint and Nextel, clash between the

entrepreneurial

Page 18: Merger And Acquisition - Reasons for Failure and Counter Measures

SIZE

Example• Blackberry buyout by Fairfax in 2013 • Holcim and Lafarge merger is likely to be

successful as the size of both the companies is equal and the size of the deal is larger

OTHER FACTORS

Example• Veramark Terminates Merger Agreement with

Varsity Acquisition LLC, Agrees to be Acquired by Hubspoke Holdings, Inc.

• Ebay and Skype in 2005 that predicted the wrong synergy

PROCESS

Example• Microsoft offered to buy Yahoo for 40 billion,

but since the BOD of Yahoo were not able to effectively communicate and deliver in the Pre-Merger meeting this deal collapsed.

SUMMARYCulture and Core values play a vital

role in the Pre-Merger and Post-Merger situations.

Valuation of a company and the standards followed play an important role.

Technology, Size and Other reasons can be controlled through careful and preemptive measures.

Page 23: Merger And Acquisition - Reasons for Failure and Counter Measures

CONCLUSION - 1Solutions:

◦Investment Banks and Auditing Firms which assist M & A must provide Valuation on a common ground. This also helps remove the communication difference between the companies.

◦Cultural differences can be mitigated by improving the understanding and purpose of the Merger and Post-Merger, HR executives help integrate the 2 companies into one.

Page 24: Merger And Acquisition - Reasons for Failure and Counter Measures

CONCLUSION - 2Solutions:

◦Valuation: Before a merger commences, a company must ensure that the amount they are paying for the M & A is not greater than the combined present value of the future Cash flows of the company.

◦Appointing or hiring experienced professionals who help foresee problems which may cause the deal to fail and also this helps the deal to be completed earlier as it’s done in a structured process.

◦“Jumping in earlier has always been higher risk and with higher risk comes greater reward” - Jim Grebey
