dc.description.abstract | In this research, we examine abnormal returns from diversifying acquisition announcements
in the period 2000-2016 in the telecom industry. The goal of the research is to shed some
light on what impact industry conditions might have on market reactions to diversification.
We apply event study methodology on acquisition announcements on a sample of telecom
operators and S&P Global 100 companies. The research find no evidence supporting higher
cumulative abnormal return from diversifying acquisition announcement in the smartphone
era compared to the prior period. In addition, we cannot conclude that investors react
differently when acquirer is a telecom operator as opposed to the general market. | nb_NO |
