In a business climate marked by escalating global competition and
industry disruption, successful mergers and acquisitions are
increasingly vital to the growth and profitability of many
corporations. If history is any guide, 60 to 70 per cent of new
mergers will fail - and will destroy shareholder value. To date,
analyses of the M&A failure rate tend to focus on individual
causes - e.g., culture clashes, valuation methods, or CEO
overconfidence - rather than examining the problem holistically.
The Value Killers is the first book based on a holistic analysis of
successful and unsuccessful transactions. Based on research,
interviews with top executives, and case studies, this book
identifies the key causes of failures and successes and offers
prescriptions to increase the odds that future transactions will
deliver all the anticipated synergies. The Value Killers offers
practical advice in the form of 5 Golden Rules. These rules will
help managers and boards to ensure that target companies are
properly valued; potential synergies and risks are identified in
advance; checks and balances are installed to make sure that the
pros and cons of the transaction are rationally and objectively
evaluated; mechanisms are created that will trigger termination of
bad deals; and obstacles to successful post-merger integrations are
assessed (and solutions developed) before the deal closes. Each
chapter includes questions for executives considering future
M&As to allow them to see whether they are on the right track
or not.
