Mergers and Acquisitions Today
“Defense spending remains at historic highs, and the commercial
aerospace marketplace is at full stride. Industry players are flush
with cash, and private equity money is pouring into the
marketplace. In 2007 we could see the 1999 record finally
eclipsed. Deals worth $25 billion have already been announced or
completed—by far the fastest start we've seen this decade.” *
* Stuart McCutchan quoted on www.defenseindustrydaily.com article Defense & Aerospace M&A Hit
370 Deals & $40B in 2006 at http://www.prnewswire.com/cgibin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/04-17-2007/0004567449&EDATE=

Mergers and Acquisitions Today
• Defense and aerospace companies completed 370 transactions of
M&A deals worth more than $40 billion in 2006*
• Firms are poised and eager to divert cash to M&A opportunities
that allow them to:
пЃ± Meet ambitious investor expectations for year-to-year growth
пЃ± Build and strengthen existing product lines
пЃ± Diversify their portfolio to compete more effectively in a marketplace that can only
cool off

The Government Customer’s Perspective
Two options for excess cash:
пЃ± Wall Street: pay cash out through larger dividends and stock
repurchases
пЃ± Pentagon: spend more on basic military research and further
acquisitions that would streamline the industry even more*
пѓ potentially reducing costs and eliminating excess capacity

11
The Government Customer’s Perspective
Concerns:
пЃ± National security concerns associated with M&As by foreign firms
пЃ± Competition
 Vertical integration risks: acquiring contractors will –
пЃ¶ prefer newly acquired suppliers over external suppliers even if the external
suppliers are superior
пЃ¶ increase barriers to market entry for their competitors
пЃ¶ compromise proprietary information obtained on competitors through
acquisition of their competitors’ supplier(s)
пЃ¶ refuse to use suppliers owned by their competition
пЃ¶ reduce competition at the subcontractor level
пѓј Horizontal integration
пѓј Reduced private R&D investment to develop new and innovative
technologies
12
The Government Customer’s Perspective
Concerns:
пЃ± Spares availability
пЃ± Weapon system support
пЃ± Interruption to on-going activities
пЃ± Erosion of smaller, cheaper, more agile companies and
competitors

пЃ± Good press
пѓј Public Profile
пѓј Reputation
пЃ± Access to new customers
пЃ± Complementary technologies
пЃ± Adjacent growth markets
пЃ± Advanced processing technologies
пЃ± Benefit from lower rate structures
пЃ± Expand product offerings
 Focus on areas where the acquirer can integrate into the acquiree’s product capability
and vice versa
 Acquire past performance and backlog of acquired companies
to help you go after prime contracts
16

Government “Hot Topics” are
for acquisition focus:
пЃ± Military readiness and logistics
пЃ± Intelligence operations and analysis
пЃ± Network-centric solutions

Business Size Considerations
Large Business vs. Small Business M&As
Large businesses:
– Size allows acquirers to get more of what they are looking for in
terms of revenue, contractors or employees
– Usually have less customer concentration and more administrative
support than small businesses
but…
18
Business Size Considerations
Small business:
– May be more nimble and, until recently*, had some advantages in
obtaining certain government contracts
“The Small Business Administration’s new size recertification rule could radically
change the landscape for small businesses interested in being acquired and their
potential buyers. Any small business will need to recertify its small-business status
after being acquired, and if it is no longer small, its contracts will no longer count
against the congressionally mandated targets for small-business contracts…
Although the new rule’s effects won’t be apparent for some time, many observers
fear that it could lead to agencies terminating contracts. The value of those contracts
would therefore be diminished when potential acquirers assess the acquisition
target.”
From Matt Swartz’s article Small Businesses on the Block Should Explore ESOPs in
Washington Technology; 06/11/07 issue; Vol. 22 No. 10
Contract portfolios may not be as valuable as they once were

Why Do M&As Fail?
In a study by Watson Wyatt:
• 66% of companies failed to meet their profit goals following
a merger
• 54% did not meet their cost cutting goals
In a study by A.T. Kearney:
• 58% of mergers failed to achieve their stated goals
• 58% of global mergers managed to outperform competitors
after two years
*From Why Do Mergers Fail? What Can Be Done to Improve Their Chances of
Success in Key Strategy, January 2006.
25
Why Do M&As Fail?
пЃ± Lack of Communication
пЃ± Lack of Direct Involvement by Human Resources
пЃ± Lack of Training
пЃ± Loss of Key People
пЃ± Loss of Customers
пЃ± Cultural Differences
пЃ± Power Politics
пЃ± Inadequate Planning
26
Why Do M&As Succeed?
пЃ±
пЃ±
пЃ±
пЃ±
пЃ±
пЃ±
Extensive and Regular Communication
пѓј Following announcement of the M&A, maintain open lines of communication with middle
management and lower level employees on the going-forward plans
 Be clear and consistent, even if the message isn’t always positive
Effective Planning at All Stages
пѓј Realistic goals and timeframes
пѓј Only 1 out of 5 companies that have acquired another has developed a clear and satisfactory
implementation plan
Retain Key People
пѓј 25% of top performers leave their company within 3 months of a major organizational event
пѓј 47% of senior managers leave within the 1st year
Manage Cultural Differences
Training and Development
пѓј Train everyone
• Managers overseeing the M&A process
• Employees of the M&A company

Due Diligence
28
Due Diligence
•
Contracts role is fact finding only
– Review the contractual documentation and provide input on risks and issues
– No negotiating; no decision making
•
Trust is critical
– The team must be composed of members that are mature and trustworthy enough to
remain silent on the entire fact of M&A discussions (this protects against turnover
and maintains moral)
•
Expect Вѕ to full time support for 30 to 45 days
•
Recognize the due diligence team’s effort, regardless of whether the
the acquisition is made

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
30
Due Diligence
The seller (or intermediary) should establish a virtual collaboration
environment / data warehouse
пЃ± Populate it with all contractual documentation
пѓј Contracts and modifications
пѓј Non-disclosure agreements
пѓј Current proposal efforts
 Allows for “virtual” due diligence from the comfort of your own office
пЃ± Availability of documentation is critical!
пЃ± Each folder in the collaboration environment should contain a 1-2 page synopsis
describing the documents that are housed in that folder
пѓј e.g.: contract, period of performance, value, type, deliverables, and status
пЃ± The collaboration environment should be constantly updated with all new
modifications, RFPs, etc
31
Due Diligence
 Work in close cooperation with the company you’re acquiring – an
adversarial posture will always backfire
пЃ± The due diligence process may seem excessively intrusive, but it builds
relationships and provides the opportunity for the acquiree to better
understand his own company while at the same time pleasing the
acquiring company
 Hesitancy or hostility during due diligence is often a sign that a deal’s
value will be more difficult to realize than originally expected
Be Patient – Don’t be Disappointed if the
Decision is Made to “No Go”
32
Due Diligence – Document Review Checklist
Evaluate every current contractual document the acquiree has as if you
were reviewing one of your own contracts for risks and opportunities:
пЃ± Contracts
 Non-standard terms and conditions (i.e. H-clauses, special T’s and C’s, etc)
пЃ± Non-Disclosure Agreements
пѓј Who are they with?
пѓј What is their duration?
пѓј What proprietary data is outstanding that would be important to request
returned or destroyed?
пЃ± Teaming Agreements
 Look for exclusivity or conflicts of interest with your own company’s pursuits
and teammates
пѓј List teaming agreement and exclusivity
33
Due Diligence – Document Review Checklist
пЃ± Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts
пЃ± Current and upcoming RFPs that the company is responding to

Transition
and
Integration
44
Transition and Integration
• Smoothness of integration largely depends on:
пЃ± How friendly/hostile the merger/acquisition process has been thus
far
пЃ± Whether the employees played a role in the decision making
пЃ± Whether the company is employee-owned such that they stand to
benefit financially from the deal
• Utilize the due diligence team, though at a much reduced
frequency, to take advantage of existing relationships
45
Transition and Integration
Do not guarantee “no change”
пЃ± Stress that there will always be
change - but good change
пЃ± Recommended reading: Who
