Strategic buyers
Strategic buyers are direct competitors, similarly, positioned companies with a different geographical focus, companies with a complementary range of services or manufacturers that are upstream or downstream in the value chain. There are different acquisition motives for strategic buyers: expansion of the own product or service portfolio, strategic diversification or market entry into a specific region or sub-market. Strategic acquisitions can justify a higher purchase price, with the buyer and seller sharing the resulting benefits from a merger of the two companies.
