    The Effect of Corporate Restructuring on the Shareholders’ Value: The Case of GEC/Marconi Magdy Abdel-Kader1* and Vagia Mentzeniot2 1 Brunel Business School. Brunel University. Uxbridge. Middlesex UB8 3PH. UK * Corresponding author: Tel: +44 (0)1895 266739. Fax: +44 (0)1895 269775. Email: [email protected] 2 Finance Division, Piraeus Bank Group, Headquarters, Stadiou & Amerikis 4, Athens, 10557, Greece Abstract GEC/Marconi’s transformation from a diversified conglomerate to a focused telecommunications and information technology company was an eventful and rambling transmission that resulted in the deterioration of shareholders’ value. It represents one of the most dramatic falls from grace in British corporate history and one of the greatest corporate governance fiascos of all time. The study investigates the wealth effects of Marconi’s sell-offs and acquisitions on its shareholders’ value by calculating the abnormal returns on the announcement days of all the disposals/acquisition during 1996-2002. The results support the view that shareholders’ value increases when a company proceeds to corporate sell-offs to pursue a focus strategy. However, the authors conjecture that GEC/Marconi has destroyed shareholders’ value through these disposals/acquisitions because of several mistakes, such as being prone to heavy debt. © 2007 World Research Organization.

The company was a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index. In December 1999, GEC's defence arm, Marconi Electronic Systems, was amalgamated with British Aerospace to form BAE Systems. The rest of GEC Former type Public limited continued as Marconi plc.[1] The financial troubles that followed the bursting company of the dot-com bubble in 2001 led to the restructuring in 2003 of Marconi plc Engineering into Marconi Corporation plc.[2] Industry Fate Defence arm In 2005, Ericsson acquired the bulk of Marconi Corporation plc, along with its merged with BAe to principal subsidiary, Marconi Communications.

  • Redacted for Privacy Abstract Approved: James.W
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Johannes B. Forrer for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Forest Products presented on January 8, 1996. Title: Dielectric Properties of Defects on Wood Surfaces. Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: James.W. Funck Raw material costs and limited material availability and quality have created significant interest in and opportunities for the application of nondestructive evaluation techniques to improve wood processing technologies. The incentivescome from the desire to 1) manufacture the highest valued product, 2) conserve the amount of raw material used, 3) use lower priced and often, lower quality raw materials, and 4) meet future demands for wood products in an economy with stark contrasts of a declining wood supply and increasing pressure from environmental concerns. Developing appropriate non-destructive evaluation techniques requires research and development of new concepts and extending the usability of known principles. Dielectrics is one such technique that offers a number of potential applications in areas such as moisture detection, drying and re-drying, grading and sorting, defect detection, curing and gluing of engineered products, repairing and patching of laminated panel products, monitoring of adhesive curing, and manufacturing of aligned fiber products. The objective of this research was to fill the void in knowledge that existed about the dielectric properties of typical features found on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) wood. Features investigated included clearwood, various sizes of loose and tight knots, knot holes, pitch pockets, pitch streaks, and blue stain. The dielectric constant and loss tangent were analyzed on a global (whole-feature) basis under a range of excitation frequencies and moisture content conditions typically found in wood processing.

  • Guglielmo MARCONI (25 April 1874-20 July 1937)
    1 Guglielmo MARCONI (25 April 1874-20 July 1937) PART 1: HIS LIFE AND COMPANY Introduction Wireless telegraphy was the outcome of a chain of effort formed by the mathematician, the laboratory experimenter, the inventor, and the capitalist. For instance: in 1864, James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) working on purely theoretical lines, reached the conclusion that an electric spark or disruptive discharge," would set up oscillations in the ether”. In 1887, Heinrich Hertz (1857-1894) proved by experiments that Clerk Maxwell's theory was correct. He demonstrated that an electric spark “brings about the radiation of etheric waves” which may be reflected, refracted, and polarised like those of light. In 1895, Guglielmo Marconi began his attempts to utilise these waves for signalling purposes. In 1896, he took out the first of the patents which were later acquired by Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company, and utilised in the development of a world-wide system of wireless telegraphy by land and sea. 1. THE EARLY YEARS (a),[3] 1.1. Guglielmo Marconi’s youth On April 25, 1874, an event occurred which would change the world forever: on that day Guglielmo Marconi was born in Bologna, Italy. His first influences proved unusual: His father, Giuseppe, was an able, dignified Catholic Italian businessman. His mother, Annie a Protestant Irish girl of Daphne Castle, County Wexford, was descended from a family of well-known Jameson whiskey distillers in Dublin. Their first child, Alfonso, had been born nine years before Guglielmo. Neat, tidy, studious and obedient, he was nearly the opposite of his younger brother.
