Domestic Mergers

The main aim of this research is to measure the impact of domestic Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As) on firm's performance and to determine M&As success and failure factors (i.e. weight efficiency, difference in efficiency, return on assets and return on equity) in the whole Egyptian market. The researchers used two-stage analysis; Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in the first step and censored regression technique (Tobit model) in the second step for sample of 21 firms listed in the Egyptian stock market (EGX) for 23 operations within the period from 2003 to 2015. The research found that there is enhancement in performance efficiency post M&As in both financial and non-financial sectors. The results showed significant relationship between both ROA and ROE with M&As performance efficiency indicating that these two factors are the most success factors affecting M&As performance efficiency. Results found that there is insignificant relationship between difference in efficiency and M&As performance efficiency.

Domestic Mergers

Our objective is to determine whether firms’ presence on social media improves the decision-making process in mergers and acquisitions (M&As), and thus the quality and performance of the transaction. Based on a sample of 309 domestic mergers carried out by Canadian companies between 2012 and 2016, the empirical evidence strongly supports our hypothesis as we find that the active presence of target firms on social media enhances the likelihood of M&A completion. In addition, M&As carried out by firms active on social media are also more likely to create value. These findings suggest that information posted on social media helps firms identify the best partnerships, i.e., those target firms with which the acquiring firms will be able to work in synergy.
