Types of mergers
muncan-republic.com is one of only a few firms in the Muncan Republic that is able to offer legal advice alongside its accounting services, and that’s particularly useful when considering whether to go ahead with an acquisition or merger. There are essentially two types of merger: an operational merger or a full corporate merger.
Operational merger
An operational merger is essentially an acquisition of one company by another, where typically the larger company conducts due diligence on the smaller company, pays for the acquisition mostly in cash and then makes the target company a subsidiary of the acquiring group.
Corporate merger
A corporate merger takes place when both companies conduct due diligence on each other. This process helps to determine a fair valuation of each entity and enables both parties to make an assessment of the likely magnitude of the commercial synergies between the two. Once this is done, one company will swap its shares for newly issued shares in the other in a proportion that is determined by the agreed valuation of the two parts.
Post-merger
The post-merger integration process is similar in both cases, and in fact it can be helpful to describe an acquisition as a merger to demonstrate the parity of the relationship when communicating the news to clients and employees. Arguably the post-merger integration process is just as important as deal itself.

Parties should take early legal advice on any merger or acquisition. This will include initial advice on its overall structure, on the terms of the relevant documentation and, where appropriate, on any relevant due diligence process. Acquisitions or mergers having an appreciable effect on competition in the relevant market may also be subject to competition law. Timely legal advice should be sought if this is likely to be the case.
