In the capital market, although a large number of mergers and acquisitions can bring economies of scale to relevant enterprises and improve the market's guiding role, it is also conducive to the optimal allocation of resources, improve the efficiency of resource use, reduce the operating costs of enterprises, and make enterprises diversified. Development is progressing, but if it is blind or for other unintended mergers and acquisitions, it will bring about the “three highs†problem of high valuation, high reputation and high performance commitment.
In recent years, the mergers and acquisitions of listed companies have emerged in an endless stream, and the phenomenon of “high valuation†and “high commitment†of the underlying assets is relatively common. Some companies promised a rapid decline in the performance of the target after the period, and some of the targets even in the commitment period, the performance has been unable to meet the commitment target, which also led to performance compensation disputes.
Therefore, how to effectively integrate the mergers and acquisitions and the merged parties after the merger and acquisition to achieve the benign development of both sides is a question worthy of consideration.
