Abstract

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A’s) are a ubiquitous corporate phenomenon for which success is elusive. We used a new measure of operating income to assess performance of the merged entity subsequent to the merger transaction. We employ measures of acquirer and target characteristics to predict outcome .
