Análisis financiero comparativo, ventajas y desventajas de la fusión entre las Compañías Rio Manso y Energy Palma.

Abstract

The objective was to determine the repercussions of the merger between the companies “Rio Manso” and Energy Palma for the strengthening of the economic group, for which the financial due diligence method was used. The study was descriptive and correlational, the information used for the respective analysis were the financial statements of the companies, current and historical comparative financial analysis was applied, financial projections of 5-year results, advantages and disadvantages of the merger, to determine the current situation of the companies, both individual and consolidated, as well as a retrospective analysis of the companies. One of the main weaknesses was the liquidity indicators, since by their nature the two companies need a constant flow of funds to cover their operations, which is used for the acquisition of raw materials, as well as for crops under development. Therefore, it was proven through the methods described above that it is advisable to postpone the merger for a couple of years and re-evaluate it at a later date, since the results expected in the projection of results are not encouraging in the case of Energy Palma. The results are not encouraging because the liquidity indicators are very low and the results projections do not foresee that this indicator will improve either. By postponing the merger we avoid compromising the financial part of “Rio Manso”.
