Chemicals: Success through timely, tailored action
2024
Overview
[...]the chemicals industry has some specific nuances that acquirers should consider when tailoring their integration program. Companies are capturing important growth opportunities and building more promising R&D portfolios. [...]consumer markets are attractive for their lower capital requirements and higher ROIC. [...]they will not suffice to deliver the benefits expected of these deals. Because cost synergies are more easily measured and quickly captured, hitting these targets may give management a misleading sense of achievement. [...]achieving them typically requires intense focus, mobilizing the entire organization in a cross-functional approach, and additional capital and operational expenses. [...]acquiring high-growth “nuggets” requires the acquirer to resist the temptation of “embracing the target to death”—that is, overwhelming them with processes and structures and distracting them from their growth objectives.
