Managerial Implications; ReferencesMergers and acquisitions are one of the cornerstones of firm growth, and have attracted considerable attention from the scholarly research community in the last three decades.

Others have identified reasons for such inefficiencies. However, very little attention has been given to business evaluation process as an influencing factor.
