Shaping of selected financial indictors by acquiring companies in the period preceding mergers of business entities. Analysis of companies in the production sector

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to examine how the acquiring companies in Poland were preparing for the merging process. The analysis uses the following methods: Spearman's correlation coefficient and linear regression, and tests for non-linear form of the regression function. The study also determines the impact of the payment period for receivables, the payment period for payables, the inventory conversion cycle, the sustainability of the structure of assets and financing and the size of entities on the operating returns of the acquiring companies (dependent variable). Acquiring companies operating in the production sector, in the years preceding the merger, stabilized the effect of their working capital components on the return on assets. On the one hand this study expands the study conducted by V. Lima, F.V. Martins, E. Brandao (2015) by providing relevant information on companies from Poland, and on the other hand it introduces the topic of merging companies (acquiring companies).
