A detailed look at the worst M&A deals ever and the lessons
learned from them
It's common knowledge that about half of all merger and acquisition
(M&A) transactions destroy value for the buyer's shareholders,
and about three-quarters fall short of the expectations prevailing
at the time the deal is announced. In Deals from Hell, Robert
Bruner, one of the foremost thinkers and educators in this field,
uncovers the real reasons for these mishaps by taking a closer look
at twelve specific instances of M&A failure. Through these
real-world examples, he shows readers what went wrong and why, and
converts these examples into cautionary tales for executives who
need to know how they can successfully navigate their own M&A
deals. These page-turning business narratives in M&A failure
provide much-needed guidance in this area of business. By
addressing the key factors to M&A success and failure, this
comprehensive guide illustrates the best ways to analyze, design,
and implement M&A deals. Filled with in-depth insights, expert
advice, and valuable lessons gleaned from other M&A
transactions, Deals from Hell helps readers avoid the common
pitfalls associated with this field and presents them with a clear
framework for thinking about how to make any M&A transaction a
success.
