Abstract
Having done the research on main factors of failure of mergers and acquisitions, it was established that companies fail transactions, because they forget about shareholders' interests and are often driven by their own interests and motivations. While shareholders are interested in financial flows that can generate a particular transaction, managers often overpay for the target, by mistake and sometimes even intentionally, and thus transfer wealth to target's company. Secondly, managers pay often in stock rather than in cash, communicating in such a way to shareholders about company's insufficient liquidity. There have been determined some other less frequent factors of failure, but still affecting acquiring company's shareholders.
The moral of the paper consists in that shareholders have an uncanny knock to react immediately to changes in corporate structure by pushing up or by pulling down the stock prices. Although there exist numerous motivations for mergers and acquisitions, companies must always set in advance the ultimate goal of value creation for their shareholders
