Acquisition Strategies in a Challenging Economy, Cushman & Wakefield - Organizations are redefined during the transition between economic cycles - roughly described as the start of recession through the first six months of recovery. One recent study found that in the past down-cycles, industry churn - the number of companies moving up or down industry rankings by at least a quartile - was 75 to 125 percent higher than during other periods. Further, the study showed the position companies secure during such economic transition periods is highly sustainable. Most firms hold the position they achieve for three to five years following the recovery, which typically represents the entirety of the following growth cycle.
Opportunistic acquisitions of companies or assets are among the key, strategic tools companies use to increase market share during economic down-cycles. Depending on the approach, such acquisitions can yield substantial longer-term benefits as well as significant near-term returns. To take full advantage of these moves, companies should pay close attention to the real estate implications and develop a thorough plan for realizing the synergies available through real estate portfolio integration and optimization.
