another corporation
Federal Trade Commission
• Vertical merger
• Horizontal merger
• Product extension merger

What is a corporate acquisition?
A corporate acquisition is the process by
which the shares or assets of a
corporation come to be owned by a buyer
• Asset deal
• Share deal
Situation in Europe
• Mostly strategic alliances
• International trend towards acquisitions
Situation in Europe
Differences between alliances on the one
hand and mergers and acquisitions on the
other hand:
• Consensual decision-making
• Transient nature and reversibility of
alliances
Situation in Europe
What should the European firms do?
• More offensive strategy
• Transfer of know-how and skills
 Complementary alliances
Strategically unrelated firms
NPV(A+B)=NPV(A)+NPV(B)
• Normal economic profit
• Not economically viable
Strategically related firms
NPV(A+B)>NPV(A)+NPV(B)
• Above-normal economic profits: target
firm
• Normal economic profits: bidding firm
• Economically viable
Why are there so many M&A?
• Ensuring survival
• Free cash flow
• Agency problems
• Managerial hubris
• The potential for above-normal profits
Rules for Bidding Firm Managers
• Search for rare synergies
• Keep information away from other bidders
• Keep information away from targets
• Avoid winning bidding wars
• Close the deal quickly
Rules for Target Firm Managers
• Seek information from bidders
• Invite other bidders to join the bidding
competition
• Delay but do not stop the acquisition
Organizing a merged
organization
• Postacquisition coordination and
integration
• Problem: operational, functional, strategic
and cultural differences
 additional costs
Choice of entry mode
greenfield vs. acquisition
• Transaction Cost Theory
• Theory of Mergers and Acquisitions (Oster, 1990)
• Theory of the Growth of the Firm (Edith Penrose,
1959)
• Capital Market Imperfections (Chatterjee, 1990)
Transaction Cost Theory
• cost structure of entry modes
• locating facilities abroad more efficient
than exporting
• choice between greenfield and acquisition
• firm specific advantages (superior
organizational or technical ability)
Transaction Cost Theory
• high R&D intensity – greenfield investment
• little knowledge of foreign market –
acquisition
• high diversification – acquisition
Mergers and Acquisition Theory
Oster (1990)
• two reason to prefer acquisition vs.
greenfield
• value of assets acquired lower than
replacement cost
• possibility to leverage firm specific
advantage more efficiently
Mergers and Acquisitions Theory
• strong value of HC vs. FC – acquisition
• lower stock market prices abroad – acqui
• acquiring rivals – less competition
• speedy entry via acquisition
• little knowledge of foreign culture – acqui
• high concentration of target industry –
acqui
Theory of the Growth of the Firm
Penrose (1959)
• low endowment in Human Resources –
acquisition
• high size of subsidiary realtive to
headquarter - acquisitions
Capital Market Imperfections
Chatterjee (1990)
• high grade of leverage – acquisition
• greenfield more expensive than acquisition
Entry Mode Choice & International
Strategy
• global strategy
• multidomestic strategy
• transnational strategy
• international strategy
Entry Mode Choice & International
Strategy
• global firms (cheap production in few
locations, same marketing
strategy/products everywhere) –
greenfield
• Multidomestic firm (locally adequate
products & marketing strategy, production
& R&D in every market) - acquisition
Relationship headquarter subsidiaries
• greenfield higher level of control over
subsidiaries than acquisition
• greenfield more expatriates than
acquisition
• acquisition higher level of local
responsiveness than greenfield
• Over time headquarter – subsidiary
relationship will converge towards
preferred entry mode
Synergy Realization of Mergers and
Acquis

• empolyee resistance
