A criação de valor para os acionistas em processos de fusões e aquisições no Brasil

Abstract

In Brazil there were more than 6000 mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the last ten years, these operations have been the subject of research on its effects, resulting in differing conclusions as to the consequences of these operations, especially in relation to the benefits to shareholders regarding the creation of economic value, motivating this research to seek possible theoretical explanations and empirical confirmation about F&A. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate whether the M&A events occurred between years 2000 and 2010 in companies listed on the BM&FBOVESPA created shareholder value. Variables Tobin's Q and the EVA® were used as proxies for value creation. Data of 83 transactions M&A were analyzed in 28 purchasing companies or resulting companies, seeking to observe the behavior of the variables after the announcement of the transaction within 36 months and for the remainder of the period (ten years) where there was data availability. Also, the data allowed comparison between results of the sample's averages and the averages of others companies listed on the BM&FBOVESPA non-sampled. The results showed symmetry with those of most previous studies demonstrating that M&A did not affect the creation of value for any of the studied variables and that the variables had negative growth over the first 36 months and had continued showing a decline when it was possible to analyze by remainder of the period, and showed symmetry with the results of the companies non-sampled
