Skepticism about the value-creating potential of mergers and acquisitions is unwarranted, according to this BCG study. The report analyzes the 1993-2002 stock-market performance of 705 public U.S. companies, based on their level of Merger & Acquisition (M&A) activity. The highly acquisitive companies in the sample had the highest median total shareholder return-more than a full percentage point per year greater than that of companies that made few or no acquisitions. This report demonstrates that there is no inherent disadvantage to growth by acquisition. [BNET annotation]
