M&A Opportunity Analysis Evaluate target companies objectively
Use data analysis to evaluate target companies objectively
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) offer great potential value, but it’s challenging to get internal stakeholders on the same page about the elements that matter most when it comes to target companies; as a result M&A decisions become dissociated from corporate strategy and transactions either fall apart or fail.
The Hanover Research M&A Opportunity Analysis solution helps you build an M&A capability that is linked to your corporate growth strategy. Hanover Research goes beyond target screening to perform market-sensing in generating a scoring model to prioritize potential targets that give you the insight, opportunity, and approach to develop new growth engines.

“We wanted to take a holistic approach to understand consumer behavior, perceptions, and what words resonate with consumers and the trade when it comes to sustainability. Hanover’s survey insights helped inform our sustainability strategy: we saw that consumers and contractors really care about sustainability and value a manufacturer that is prioritizing sustainability in their business decisions. Hanover brought out research techniques like MaxDiff to help create the best survey instrument for our needs.”
