RESUMEN

Este artículo evalúa, desde el punto de vista económico-financiero, los resultados o efectos de las fusiones mediante el uso de información contable. En particular, presenta un estudio empírico basado en un modelo exploratorio, que se apoya en técnicas univariables y multivariables para revelar las principales relaciones que distinguen a las empresas absorbentes de las no participantes en procesos de fusión, identificando los perfiles económicos y financieros de las empresas adquirentes. Los resultados de la investigación no son favorables a las fusiones de empresas, al menos tomando en cuenta las relaciones económicas y financieras subyacentes en la muestra de estudio, formada por empresas cotizadas de sectores no financieros del mercado español.

ABSTRACT

This work evaluates, from the economic and financial viewpoint, the effects or consequences of mergers through out using accounting information. Concretely, it presents an empirical study based on an exploratory model, which is supported by univariant and multivariant techniques in order to reveal the main relations that distinguish acquiring firms from those who do not participate in mergers processes, identifying the financial and economic profiles of the acquiring firms. The research results are not favourable to firms' merging, at least taking into account financial and economic relations underlined in the sample, formed by quoted firms that belong to non-financial industries of the Spanish market.
