M&A PMI

Historically, we can assume that the PMI (post-merger integration) is an important key for a successful M&A:

-In almost 60% of all cross-border transactions, the acquiring company did not earn back its cost of capital

-Over 50% of mergers failed to reach goals set by top management

-Deal costs were recovered within 10 years in only 23% of all transactions

-50% of transactions result in same or lower profits

-Of 150 recent deals about half destroyed shareholders wealth
