Hypothesis Hypothesis I: do mergers and acquisitions generate synergistic gains? The empirical research findings tend to support no synergistic gains from M&A activities. For example, Kusewitt (1985) argued that the financial performance of an acquirer would suffer in the long run if the price paid for acquisitions was more than they were worth, even taking into account any synergistic benefits. Similarly, Sirower (1997) rigorously examined the premium paid on M&A transactions and showed that synergy could not be realized if one considers the amount of premium paid. Also, Hensey (2000, pp. 36– 37) stated the following regarding synergy gains in M&A transactions: “when a firm seeks an acquisition, the hoped for synergies and efficiencies that the acquisition may appear to bring will often disappear into the mist, and frequently being under the same corporate “roof” bring new and predictable conflicts.” Theoretically, there may exist a variety of sources of synergy gains, as noted in an earlier section. Most construction firms that have engaged in M&A activities expected synergistic gains when implementing M&A transactions. For example, many construction firms have engaged in multiple M&A transactions. If firms had experienced loss in the earlier transactions, they would not jump into the game again. The implication is that there may be a sort of synergy that is realized through M&A transactions. If the M&A transactions generate any synergistic gains, they would be realized in the form of improved
