Description在日趋复杂动态的环境中,如何提高企业的绩效不仅是企业家最感兴趣的事情,也是众多学者进行企业管理方面研究的落脚点。从目前战略执行力的研究现状来看,一些学者对战略执行力的性质和构成进行了研究,并取得了一定的成果。但这些研究多为描述性分析,实证研究较少,且较为分散,尚未形成较为完整的分析框架。对于战略执行力、员工生产力与企业绩效关系的研究则更少。因此,本研究将通过对现有文献的分析和梳理,研究战略执行的本质及其构成并进一步研究战略执行力与企业绩效的关系及其作用机理。

This study investigates the performance effects of cross-industry mergers and acquisitions (M&A) using a sample of firms listed in China’s Growth Entrepreses Market (GEM). Compared to firms listed in the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges, firms listed in the GEM are much smaller and tend to derive the majority of their revenues from a single industry. I first analyze the motives for firms listed in the GEM to engage in M&As and propose a set of factors that may influence their likelihood of M&A activities. Using data on 55 cross-industry M&As between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2016, I find that investor generally responded positively in short-term, as indicated by the positive accumulated abonormal returns over the first five trading days following the announcements. Meanwhile, I found no evidence that investors benefited from cross-industry M&As in long-term over three years after the event. Further analysis suggests that the short-term effects of cross-industry M&As by GEM listed firms were influenced by the target firm’s market valuation, whether the M&A was paid by cash, the amount of the payment, and the degree of difference between the acquiring firm’s and the target firm’s industries. These findings have important implications for the investors and senior executives of firms listed in the GEM.
