Motivations For Diversification • Value Enhancing Motives: Ø Increase market power v Multi-point competition Motivations For Diversification • Value Enhancing Motives: Ø Increase market power v Multi-point competition Ø R&D and new product development Ø Developing New Competencies (Stretching) Ø Transferring Core Competencies (Leveraging) v Utilizing excess capacity (e. g. , in distribution) v Economies of Scope v Leveraging Brand-Name (e. g. , Haagen-Dazs to chocolate candy) 8– 34

Leveraging Core Competencies for Corporate Diversification • Core competence Ø Unique skills and strengths Leveraging Core Competencies for Corporate Diversification • Core competence Ø Unique skills and strengths Ø Allows firms to increase the value of product/service Ø Lowers the cost • Examples: v Wal-mart – global supply chain v Infosys – low-cost global delivery system • The core competence – market matrix Ø Provides guidance to executives on how to diversify in order to achieve continued growth 8– 35

Other Motivations For Diversification • Motivations that are “Value neutral”: Ø Diversification motivated by Other Motivations For Diversification • Motivations that are “Value neutral”: Ø Diversification motivated by poor economic performance in current businesses. • Motivations that “Devaluate”: Ø Agency problem Ø Managerial capitalism (“empire building”) Ø Maximize management compensation Ø Sales Growth maximization v Professor William Baumol

Diversification • Issue #1: When there is a reduction in managerial (employment) risk, then Diversification • Issue #1: When there is a reduction in managerial (employment) risk, then there is upside and downside effects for stockholders: Ø On the upside, managers will be more willing to learn firm-specific skills that will improve the productivity and long-run success of the company (to the benefit of stockholders). Ø On the downside, top-level managers may have the economic incentive to diversify to a point that is detrimental to stockholders.

Diversification • Issue #2: There may be no economic value to stockholders in diversification Diversification • Issue #2: There may be no economic value to stockholders in diversification moves since stockholders are free to diversify by holding a portfolio of stocks. No one has shown that investors pay a premium for diversified firms -in fact, discounts are common. Ø A classic example is Kaiser Industries that was dissolved as a holding company because its diversification apparently subtracted from its economic value. v Kaiser Industries main assets: (1) Kaiser Steel; (2) Kaiser Aluminum; and (3) Kaiser Cement were independent companies and the stock of each were publicly traded. Kaiser Industries was selling at a discount which vanished when Kaiser Industries revealed its plan to sell its holdings. 8– 39

Sustainable Competitive Advantage • Trying to gain sustainable competitive advantage via mergers and acquisitions Sustainable Competitive Advantage • Trying to gain sustainable competitive advantage via mergers and acquisitions puts us right up against the “efficient market” wall: Ø If an industry is generally known to be highly profitable, there will be many firms bidding on the assets already in the market. Generally the discounted value of future cash flows will be impounded in the price that the acquirer pays. Thus, the acquirer is expected to make only a competitive rate of return on investment. 8– 48

Sustainable Competitive Advantage • And the situation may actually be worse, given the phenomenon Sustainable Competitive Advantage • And the situation may actually be worse, given the phenomenon of the winner’s curse. Ø The most optimistic bidder usually over- estimates the true value of the firm: v Quaker Oats, in late 1994, purchased Snapple Beverage Company for $1. 7 billion. Many analysts calculated that Quaker Oats paid about $1 billion too much for Snapple. In 1997, Quaker Oats sold Snapple for $300 million.

Sustainable Competitive Advantage • Under what scenarios can the bidder do well? Ø Luck Sustainable Competitive Advantage • Under what scenarios can the bidder do well? Ø Luck Ø Asymmetric Information – This eliminates the competitive bidding premise implicit in the “efficient market hypothesis” Ø Specific-synergies (co-specialized assets) between the bidder and the target. – Once again this eliminates the competitive bidding premise of the efficient market hypothesis.
