Answer Following Questions
1.What was the stated Strategic logic for this acquisition? Does it make sense?
2.Mars paid GB£544m for Hotel Chocolat. Was that a reasonable price (P/E ratio) and how many years will it take to recoup?
3.Show the revenue and operating profits of each company in 2022 and then the combined revenue and profits after the acquisition.
4.What synergies would you expect to see from merging these two companies—revenue growth and/or cost savings. Spell them out and try to quantify for 2023..
5.Each company has several products and brands in its portfolio. Are they all worth keeping and how would you modify the portfolio for the future?
6.Will combining the two businesses benefit their geographic footprint? If so, how?
7.Conclusions? Is this a good move or not? Why?
