Managerial motives for merger and acquisition activity

Explain what are referred to as managerial motives for merger and acquisition activity, identifying and of these that might be relevant in the case of Tambaku PLC and Loja Limited.

– ‘…that injection of the surplus funds into Loja Limited would result in Loja’s earnings increasing by 10% in the first year after takeover…’ https://corporatefinanceinstitute.com/resources/knowledge/deals/motives-for-mergers/ (more on the link above) Undertaking a merger will increase the shareholders wealth, due to synergies being consolidated which increases the value of the newly created business. 1. Value creation Synergies: – Revenue synergies – improving company’s revenue-generating ability i.e. Market Expansion, Product Diversification, and R+D activities. ‘Tambaku PLC has decided to make a bid to acquire Loja Limited, an unquoted company which operates a chain of supermarkets’. –> Linked to market expansion, TPLC is a tobacco company, LLTD operates a chain of supermarkets. – Cost synergies – reduce the company’s revenue-generating ability i.e. access to new technologies, and even elimination of certain costs, may improve the cost structure of a company. (not really related, I don’t think, but if you find its related) 2. Diversification Merging = for diversification reasons, such as its business operations, entering into new markets or offering new products or services, to help diversify risks relating to company’s operations. However, shareholders can diversify risk through investment portfolitos, merger = long and risky transaction. Related to the ‘Values creation: revenue synergies’
