This PPT slide, part of the 19-slide Unlocking Value through Acquisition PowerPoint presentation, presents a comparative analysis of total shareholder return (TSR) over a five-year period, distinguishing between companies that engage in acquisitions and those that rely on organic growth. It highlights that companies making only one acquisition in 5 years yield a modest average TSR of 2% in the first year post-acquisition, with only 43% of these deals resulting in positive returns. This indicates a significant challenge for one-time acquirers in effectively integrating acquired companies.
In contrast, firms that actively pursue acquisitions—defined as those completing 2 to 5 deals within the same timeframe—demonstrate a markedly better performance. These active buyers achieve an average one-year TSR of 6%, showcasing their superior ability to integrate and realize value from acquisitions. The slide emphasizes that acquisitive growth is more lucrative than organic growth, evidenced by a 4.2 percentage point (p.p.) advantage in TSR for acquisitive companies over their organic counterparts.
Furthermore, the data reveals that experienced acquirers generate an additional 5.5 p.p. in TSR compared to organic growth companies. This suggests that familiarity and repeated engagement in acquisitions enhance a company's capability to integrate and capitalize on new assets effectively. The concluding statement encourages one-time acquirers to emulate the practices of active buyers, implying that understanding the methodologies of successful acquirers is crucial for improving their own performance in the market.
This analysis serves as a compelling argument for potential customers considering the strategic benefits of adopting a more aggressive acquisition strategy.
