Acquisitions and RestructuringAcquisitions and Restructuring Acquisition Types:
• Mergers:
Two firms join and integrate operations as co-equals. Chrysler – Diamler Benz example.
• Acquisitions:
One firm buys a controlling interest in another firm with the intent to make the other firm a division or subsidiary of the acquiring firm. In general these agreements are friendly but do not result in a co-equal relationship. Novell’s acquisition of German-based SuSE gives Novell an in-house source for Linux desktop and server operating systems.
• Hostile Takeovers: Acquisition bid is unsolicited. Generally results in incumbent management being removed. Yahoo’s takeover bid for HotJobs to thwart TMP Worldwide (a rival of Yahoo).Microsoft’s alliance with Yahoo to thwart entry of Google is NOT a merger

Majority of the world’s most valuable brands havebeen around for more than 60 years. Compare this with the average life of the Corporation of 25 years.

Firm level approaches measure the brand as a financial asset. In short, a calculation is made regarding how much the brand is worth as an intangible asset. i.e.
Firm Level
Product LevelCompare the price of a no-name or private label product to an "equivalent" branded product. The difference in price, assuming all things equal, is due to the brand
Consumer Level
Measure the awareness (recall and recognition) and brand image (the overall associations that the brand has). Free association tests and projective techniques are commonly used to uncover the tangible and intangible attributes, attitudes, and intentions about a brand. Brands with high levels of awareness and strong, favorable and unique associations are high equity brands[.
