ACG NY Monthly Luncheon Meeting - 020217

Description:
Growth through acquisition is a viable strategy for middle and lower middle market companies.  The strategy of pursuing bolt-on/add-on acquisitions offers access to new markets, provides a pathway to gain scale, and can contribute significant synergies that flow through to the bottom line.  Despite its advantages, growth through acquisition also  brings with it real challenges for companies and their investors concerning integration, cultural fit, IT and financial reporting complexities,  distraction for the stand-alone company, and difficult personnel decisions post acquisition.  Please join us for a lively discussion with investment  bankers that have facilitated these deals and investors that have undertaken them about the pros and cons to this strategy and suggestions for maximizing a positive outcome and limiting negative repercussions.
