Meet your financial expectations with mergers and acquisitions process

 

Mergers and acquisitions are the commonly heard terms in businesses that are referred for the amalgamation of companies. Merger is the process when two companies come together to form a single entity. On the other hand, acquisition refers to the process in which the larger company takes over a smaller company. In acquisitions, the bigger company buys out a considerate portion of another company’s stocks. Both the processes are almost similar to each other. But one thing is excluded in mergers that existing shareholders of both the companies maintain a shared interest in the newly enlarged entity formed.

There are various reasons why mergers and acquisitions are carried out:

This can be undertaken because of several reasons. Of course, some of them may be advantageous and some may be not. One of the major reasons is to save on taxes. The combined losses of the acquired company can be set off against the combined profits of the acquiring company. It results in huge tax savings.

Another significant reason for this strategy to be carried out is gaining greater market share. Most of the companies come together to improve their business. Two companies that manufacture different yet complimentary products carry out mergers and acquisitions.

Merger and acquisition leads to cost efficiency as it improves the purchasing power of the companies. The cost cutting generated through staff reduction also increases the profit margins of the companies.
