How to approach this case
In an M&A case, the first question is the reason for the deal: what the buyer is after changes everything you will look at. Then assess the target on its own (its market, its position, its profitability), and what the combination adds, separating cost synergies, which are safer, from revenue synergies, which are more fragile. Finish with the price and the integration risks, which sink deals that look attractive on paper. The market, target, synergies, risks grid covers the ground, but it does not replace a clear opinion on whether to buy.
It also includes a chart or table to read: first say what the axes show, then give the main message in one sentence before going into detail.
