When done right, mergers and acquisitions can be a catalyst for transformation and a source of competitive advantage
Mergers and Acquisitions Consulting
In today’s dynamic global economy, both publicly traded and privately held companies are keen to capitalize on the substantial growth opportunities available. While mergers and acquisitions (M&A) hit record highs in 2005 and saw a slowdown by 2010, industry consolidation is expected to accelerate as we approach 2025, with the trend continuing over the next 3-5 years.
While organic growth remains a key objective, strategic acquisitions—especially those that can be accretive within 12 to 24 months, are highly valued by investors. Growth is a top priority, whether a company is listed on the Nasdaq, New York Stock Exchange, or an international exchange. Companies with institutional shareholders such as private equity, mutual funds, pension funds, and activist investors have a duty to ignite growth, whether through organic expansion or strategic mergers and acquisitions.
In certain scenarios, management might even determine that being acquired is the best route to maximize returns for shareholders. FGA Partners can play a pivotal role in these important decisions, offering its expertise either as a facilitator or as a potential acquirer. Our services are designed to help emerging growth companies navigate these processes effectively, with a strong focus on creating value for both the company and its shareholders.
At FGA Partners, we take the time to understand each select client’s specific goals, working diligently to ensure that every decision is aligned with enhancing shareholder value.
