Forms of business mergers and acquisitions are becoming a strategic development trend for many businesses in the Vietnamese market. M&A activities provide opportunities to develop scale, optimize resources, and enhance competitive position for businesses participating in transactions. Please follow the following article by Long Phan to better understand common forms of business mergers and acquisitions and things to keep in mind when performing M&A.
Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) is a term that refers to mergers and acquisitions of businesses through capital and financial transactions. This is considered an effective business strategy, bringing benefits to both buyers and sellers. Specifically, the benefits of M&A include:
Therefore, when done carefully and reasonably, M&A is not only an effective business tool but also a sustainable development strategy, bringing great benefits to both parties involved.
Business mergers and acquisitions (M&A) take place in many different forms, depending on the specific goals and strategies of the parties involved. And each form has its own role and needs to be done properly to ensure success. Currently, there are popular forms of M&A as follows:
Contributing capital to an enterprise is a form of increasing charter capital by directly contributing capital. For limited liability companies, this process usually involves contributing charter capital, while for joint stock companies, capital contribution is done through purchasing newly issued shares.
This form focuses on buying back capital contributions from members or issued shares of shareholders in the enterprise. Although it does not increase charter capital, it can significantly change the ownership and control structure within the company.
A corporate merger occurs when one or more companies are merged into another, larger company. All assets, rights and obligations of the merged enterprise will be transferred to the merging company. The merged business will cease operations, and the merged company inherits all rights and responsibilities.
A business merger is the process of combining two or more companies to form a new company. The original businesses will cease operations, and the new company will take over all assets, rights and obligations of the participating parties.
Business separation is a form applied to limited liability companies or joint stock companies, in order to reduce the size and restructure the organization. This process helps businesses easily achieve strategic goals or optimize control capabilities.
To ensure the business merger and acquisition process takes place effectively, accurately determining business value and checking the legality of documents and procedures are prerequisites. Below are the detailed tasks that need to be done:
The first thing to do is hire law firms and professional financial consulting units to fully appraise and evaluate the asset quality of the target business. Financial contents that need to be checked include debt records, cash flow, internal control system, income, costs and profits. This process not only helps accurately assess asset value but also ensures transparency and reliability of data reported by businesses.
Analyzing a business’s current business environment is an important step in understanding growth potential. It is necessary to specify the customer profile, evaluate the level of competition with competitors in the market and check the basic assumptions in the business plan. Through this, it is possible to clearly determine the feasibility and risks of the business’s commercial strategy.
One step that cannot be overlooked is to review all legal records of the business to assess the legality of the documents and detect potential legal risks. Legal appraisal also helps to identify potential disputes or violations, thereby protecting the rights of participating parties.
Full review of documents related to the business’s tax obligations, including tax receipts and declaration reports. This is to ensure that businesses do not make errors or deficits in fulfilling tax obligations, thereby minimizing tax-related financial risks.
After completing the inspection and review, the participating parties will conduct a valuation of all assets and value of the business. This process requires detail and caution to set the right price. Finally, the parties will agree on a closing price and proceed with the transaction.
Therefore, fully implementing the above steps not only helps ensure transparency and legality in the M&A process but also creates the foundation for the long-term success of both parties. A thorough inspection and fair valuation will minimize risk and deliver maximum value from the transaction.
