8. M&A Companies in the Philippines
The Ayala Group said in
February 2017 that it was
acquiring nearly half of on
line retailer Zalora, as it
expands into e-commerce.

virtual spaces will create

9. M&A Companies in the Philippines

Philippines (LBP)
announced in November
2017 that it would acquire
Philippine Postal Savings
Bank and spin it off into a
lender for overseas
Filipino workers.

to serve overseas workers,
given its ties to the postal
service.

com, said in May last year
that it would buy rival
San Miguel Corp’s teleco
mmunications assets for
P70 billion, effectively
stopping the entry of a
third player in the
industry hounded by
complaints of bad service.
Access to San Miguel’s 700 Mhz frequency will increase internet
speeds, PLDT and Globe said. The country’s anti-competition
watchdog is investigating the deal for alleged violation of
competition laws.
11. Advantages of M&A
1. Merge their power and control over the markets
– the most common reason for firms to enter into
M&A
2. Synergy – the magic power that allow for increased
value efficiencies of the new entity.
3. Cost reduction – economies of scale is formed by s
haring resources and services
4. Decrease of Risk – in terms of financial risk
5. Become competitive – in terms of technological de
velopments
6. Tax benefits – the biggest advantage, as firms
will fully build use of tax-shields.
12. Disadvantages of M&A
1. Loss of experienced workers.
2. Employees of the small merging firm may require
exhaustive re-skilling.
3. Frictions and internal competition that may occur
among the staff of the united companies.
4. Retrenchments – due to duplication of work
5. Increase in costs – implementation of the merger
and acquisition dealing are delayed.
6. The uncertainty with respect to the approval of
the merger by proper assurances.
7. The return of the share of the company that
caused buyouts of other company was less
than the return of the sector as a whole.

16. Law of M&A in the Philippine Setting
There is no centralized data available on M&A in the Philippines.
M&A is primarily governed by the Corporation Code and the Civil
Code of the Philippines, as well as the Securities Regulation Code
(SRC) when listed companies are involved. M&A would have to comply
with the nationality requirements in the Philippine Constitution, the
Foreign Investments Act, and other laws as applicable.
Most M&A does not require regulatory consent or approval except
for some companies engaged in regulated businesses such as banking,
insurance and telecommunications.
Acquisitions in the Philippines are typically structured as share
purchases, as these are generally simpler to implement and more
tax-efficient.
Need to comply with tender-offer rules if the target is a public company
(such as one listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange, or PSE) and the
buyer will acquire at least 35% of such company’s capital stock
17. Research Suggests:
20% of all mergers and
acquisitions are successful
60% produce disappointing
results
20% are clear failures
18. Reasons for M&A Failures
1+1 = 3 sounds great but in practice or reality every time it's not work
properly and go awry. Historical trends show that roughly 2 thirds of huge
mergers can let down on their own terms, which implies they're going to
lose worth on the stock exchange. The motivations that mainly drive
mergers are frequently blemished and efficiencies from economies of
scale might prove elusive (Investopedia, 2010).
Conclusions
One size does not match all. Several firms think that the most effective
way to get ahead is to expand business boundaries through mergers and
acquisitions (M&A). Mergers produce synergies and economies of
scale, increasing operations and cutting prices. Investors will take comfort
within the idea that a merger can deliver increased market power.
