Hi guys,
I recently had a similar question in an interview and would like to know which financial ratios / indications you take into account to evaluate whether a company should or shouldn't do M&A.
Example: X wants to acquire Y. Which financial ratios / numbers (e.g. leverage etc.) should you take into account?
Many thanks!
