Recommendation
According to management consultants Philip Dunne and Angus Hodgson, major stakeholders in mergers and acquisitions tend to overemphasize earnings per share (EPS) as a metric for assessing potential success. However, “EPS accretion” doesn’t necessarily enhance shareholder value, nor does “EPS dilution” always destroy it. Other measures can be more valuable in predicting whether an M&A deal will prosper. getAbstract recommends this astute overview to executives and investors considering an M&A transaction now or in the future.
