| Tiivistelmä: | The business press generally greets these announcements with breathless projections based on extrapolations of combined sales, earnings, and R&D spending, with little emphasis on whether the merged companies will be worth the sum of their parts. In this paper the authors examine patent analysis techniques for evaluating the technological strength of merger candidates, and explore the notion that the technological quality of the merged company may be diluted rather than enhanced. The authors will also use patent analysis methods for examining the market value of companies, to determine whether a merger target is over- or under-priced. |
