Using EVA for acquisitions
Article Abstract:
The use of economic value added (EVA) or a discounted cash flow approach to look at the economics of a business acquisition will end in the same conclusions but EVA gives additional information about when the purchase will create value. The EVA approach allows for greater comprehension of the value of an acquisition. A buyer will be able to determine if the purchase will create value for shareholders and when it will give value to the existing company by considering the EVA impact of an acquisition. Many acquisitions experience negative economics in the first few years.
