What are Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A)

Mergers: A merger occurs when two companies combine to form a new entity. Both companies cease to exist independently, and a new company is created.  

  Example: The merger of Disney and Pixar to create a stronger media and animation empire.

Acquisitions: An acquisition happens when one company purchases another, either by buying a majority stake or acquiring its assets. The acquired company may continue to operate under its own name or as part of the acquiring company.  

  Example: Facebook’s acquisition of Instagram to expand its social media portfolio.

Types of Mergers and Acquisitions

  1. Horizontal M&A: Between companies in the same industry to consolidate market position.  

   Example: Coca-Cola acquiring a competing beverage company.

  1. Vertical M&A: Between companies at different stages of the supply chain to streamline operations.  

   Example: Amazon acquiring Whole Foods to enhance its distribution network.

  1. Conglomerate M&A: Between companies in unrelated industries to diversify business interests.  

   Example: Tata Group acquiring Jaguar Land Rover.

  1. Market-Extension M&A: To expand into new markets.  

   Example: A U.S.-based retailer acquiring a European chain.

  1. Product-Extension M&A: To add complementary products or services.  

   Example: A software company acquiring a cybersecurity firm.
