A big tent was installed at the Parking G next to the runway 06. Inside, Luxair Cargo, Luxair Tours and Luxair Catering had PR stands. A Boeing 737 engine was shown and for visitors the most interesting was the complete Boeing 737 simulator. (Photos on the right) In addition a de-icing truck, a push back truck and other equipment used by Luxair and Luxair Cargo were exhibited outside the tent. (Photos below) Luxair also offered the possibility to take a sightseeing tour over Luxembourg with one of their Dash Q400. 5 flights were organized during the afternoon for 25€ which was quite an acceptable price. After taking the shuttle to the Terminal B and passing the security check we boarded Luxair LX-LGC for a 30 minute flight. After departure we flew over Echternach, Mersch, Vianden, Diekirch, Esch-Sur-Sûre, and then south over Capellen and Pétange back over the City.

Markmiðið með virðismatinu er að leggja mat á hvort hlutir félagsins á markaði teljist yfir- eða undir verðlagðir. Niðurstöður þessarar rannsóknar gefa til kynna að eiginlegt virði hlutanna sé 2,58 krónur. Í upphafi aprílmánaðar var gengi hlutanna á markaði hins vegar 1,40 krónur og gefa niðurstöðurnar því til kynna að hlutirnir séu undirverðlagðir um rúm 84 prósent og að kaupaðstæður fyrir fjárfesta í félaginu séu því hagstæðar. Hins vegar bendir margt til þess að fjárfesting í félaginu feli í sér umtalsverða áhættu og sé því ekki hentugur valkostur fyrir áhættufælna fjárfesta. Virðismatsaðferðin sem stuðst er við í þessari rannsókn er afvaxtað sjóðstreymislíkan þar sem virði félagsins er metið út frá núvirtu frjálsu sjóðstreymi til fyrirtækisins að viðbættu niðurlagsvirði. Til stuðnings virðismatsins var bæði framkvæmd stefnumiðuð og fjárhagsleg greining á félaginu. Stefnumiðaða greiningin var framkvæmd með PESTEL greiningu, fimm krafta líkani Porters, VRIO auðlindalíkani og SVÓT greiningu og hafði það að leiðarljósi að greina þá lykilþætti í umhverfi félagsins sem skapað gætu því aukið virði eða dregið úr arðsemi þess fram á við.

This thesis is a 6 ECTS final assignment to BS-degree from the Faculty of Business and Administration of the University of Iceland. © Pidsinee Dísa Einarsdóttir This thesis cannot be copy without the author’s permission Printing: Haskolaprent Reykjavik, 2019 2 Abstract Mergers and acquisition (M&A) activities take place in the market actively, it started initially started in 1890, and since that time six waves have been identified. The thesis consists of an explanation of the theoretical background of M&A along with the principal of the activity and risk management. The center of focus is M&A in the aviation industry, concentrating on the WOW air and Icelandair event that occurred from 2018 to 2019. The mentioned years have been remarkable years for WOW air due to financial losses. To keep business and survive the company had attempted many solutions, and one of them was to merge with Icelandair. Since these two companies shared the most significant market share in the Keflavik International Airport, or over 70% of the total, if the two airlines had happened to merge it would have increased their market power among international carriers. Moreover, they would benefit from economies of scale and cost reductions, but due to them operating with different types of aircraft, it would have been difficult for the airlines to merge.
