M & A Advisory
Acquisition Advisory
Most executives are aware of the plethora of studies showing that a majority of acquisitions have been unsuccessful. Although many of these studies have exaggerated true failure rates, it is certain that a significant percentage of acquisitions have not met expectations. And many have been outright disasters.
With that said, there is no doubt that the right acquisition(s) can help companies achieve goals that cannot be achieved in any other way. Simply put, M&A is difficult and risky, but it is a powerful and perhaps indispensable strategic tool.
