The parent company's growth has been transformed by numerous cult mergers and acquisitions. In order to demonstrate that mergers and acquisitions may be used to "overcome the flood" in the challenging setting of the market, let's look at some successful deals that have been made in the past with INMERGERS.
1. Google acquired Android
At the time of its acquisition by Google for an estimated $50 million, Android was still an unknown and nascent mobile startup. This move allows Google to compete with Microsoft's Windows Mobile and Apple's iPhone.
The profit and success of this deal were even greater than Google's acquisition of Youtube with $1.65 billion. By far more than 50% of smartphone users in the United States use Android devices.
2. Disney acquired Pixar, Marvel and 21s Century Fox
Three years after having acquired Pixar for $7.4 billion and generating billions in revenue thanks to the movies "Finding Dory," "Toy Story 3" and "Wall-E," the Disney giant continued to take over Marvel Entertainment for $4 billion. This was considered a potential deal with the treasure of more than 5000 characters of Marvel comics.
And the entertainment business was only really "shaken" when Disney announced it would buy 21st Century Fox for $52.4 billion. This agreement brought together the world's two largest entertainment companies and was a solid guarantee for the future of the Disney "empire".
3. Amazon acquired Whole Foods
Giant E-commerce Amazon has stepped out into the real world with its $13.7 billion acquisition of grocery retailer Whole Foods Market. Amazon is known for its incredible inventory turnover and supply chain mastery. Meanwhile, Whole Foods is a traditional local grocery chain where it takes time and effort to make everything.
The impact of the merger was clear and fast, with lower prices and Amazon kiosks popping up in stores within the first few months. The changes helped attract a new set of customers, who had previously shunned Whole Foods because of its unique reputation and relatively high prices.
4. AT&T acquired BellSouth
One of the world's largest telecommunications giants, AT&T has acquired BellSouth (BLS) for $89 billion to take control of the largest US wireless phone company Cingular Wireless LLC with over 54 million subscribers.
AT&T achieved its M&A target by acquiring 70 million new customers, increasing the company's market share to $170 billion, and strengthening its position in the telecommunications industry.
5. CapitaLand successfully acquired Ascendas and Singbridge Pte. Ltd.
CapitaLand has completed the negotiation and acquired all the existing shares of Ascendas and Singbridge Pte. Ltd.
The Ascendas-Singbridge merger made Capitaland one of the largest multidisciplinary real estate groups in Asia. With over S$123 billion in assets under management after acquiring Ascendas-Singbridge.
CapitaLand adds OneHub Saigon project to its investment portfolio in Vietnam. This is a complex of commercial, industrial, and transport offices with an area of 12 hectares. Located at the entrance to Saigon Hi-Tech Park, adjacent to Hanoi Highway.
Conclusion
In general, we can see that M&A possesses great potential in bringing high profits to businesses.
