Cost Synergy Cost SynergyThe financial benefit two companies may derive from a merger or acquisition. For example, two companies that merge may be able to produce more revenue than either one could independently by combining the most efficient processes each brings to the merger. Cost synergy may also refer to the cost reduction a merger brings about by eliminating or streamlining redundant processes. Cost synergy usually has a positive connotation; as a result, press releases and media reports often use the term to refer to layoffs following a merger that are intended to make the newly merged company more efficient. |
