  • Case Study: the Bayer-Monsanto Acquisition Deal
    Case Study: The Bayer-Monsanto Acquisition Deal Student: Georgios Ritsos-Kokkinis (SNR:2013707, ANR:927674) Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Christoph Schneider Second reader: Prof. Dr. Olivier de Jonghe Tilburg, August 2020 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Dr. Christoph Schneider, Assistant Professor at Tilburg University – Department of Finance, whose expertise and guidance were invaluable in soundly formulating all the relevant methodologies, and concisely structuring the output results. Your feedback pushed me to sharpen my thinking and brought my work to a higher level. I would also like to thank fellow scholar Thanos Vasiliadis, PhD candidate in Mathematics at Université côté d'Azur, Laboratoire Dieudonné, for his support, encouragement and constructive comments, which were instrumental to the completion of this dissertation. ABSTRACT The acquisition of Bayer-Monsanto was one of the largest M&A deals of the past decade. In this study, I document the motives of this transaction and the timeline of events that took place, from the initial rumors until Bayer’s milestone settlement of Monsanto’s “Roundup” litigation in mid-2020. Fundamental valuations of the two individual companies and their officially disclosed synergies reveal that the premium paid over Monsanto’s overvalued share price was not justified, as is commonly observed in the M&A ecosystem. Multiple approaches to the calculation of the discount factor reach the same conclusion. Averaging across multiple costs of capital, shows that the combined intrinsic value with synergy of roughly $177bn was some $2.12bn higher than the sum of parts, suggesting a rather profitable investment opportunity. However, Bayer, did overpay by 18.08% to reap these benefits.

  • Why Switzerland?
    Why Switzerland? Marwan Naja, AS Investment Management January, 2010 I. Executive Summary Swiss Equities Have Outperformed: Here is a fact you probably did not know: The Swiss equity market has arguably been the best performing developed world market over the past 20, 10, 5 and 2 years. The SPI Index, which incorporates over 200 Swiss stocks, is the best performing index in Swiss Franc (“CHF”), US Dollars (“USD”), Euro (“EUR”) and British Pounds (“GBP”) over the past 20 years1,10 years, 5 years, and 2 years when compared to similar broad-based total return indices in the United States (S&P 500 Total Return), the United Kingdom (FTSE 350 Total Return), Germany (CDAX), France (SBF 120 Total Return) and Japan (TOPIX Total Return)2. For most of these periods the magnitude of the outperformance is significant. Furthermore, the Swiss market has exhibited attractive risk characteristics including lower volatility than comparable markets. Figure 1: SPI 20 Year Performance (red) Compared to Major Developed Indices in CHF3 1 The 20 year comparable excludes the EUR which has not existed for that duration and the French SBF 120 TR which was established in 1990 and has underperformed the SPI over the 19 year period. 2 The Swiss market is the best performer in our local currency comparison (stripping out the foreign exchange effects) over 20 years and marginally trails the FTSE 350 for the 10 year, 5 year and 2 year comparisons. 3 Source of all graphs is Bloomberg unless otherwise indicated.
