Qu'est-ce qui compte le plus lors de l'analyse d'une transaction\u00a0: la force des facteurs de demande ou la force de la notori\u00e9t\u00e9 de la marque de l'entreprise cible\u00a0?<\/p>\n\n

\u00c0 de rares exceptions pr\u00e8s, la demande \u2013 et non le choix (la notori\u00e9t\u00e9 de la marque aupr\u00e8s des fournisseurs) \u2013 est un facteur d\u00e9terminant pour la r\u00e9ussite d'une acquisition. Bien s\u00fbr, les deux sont importants, mais leur \u00e9quilibre et leur performance relative peuvent \u00eatre un atout majeur pour une strat\u00e9gie d'investissement gagnante. Sans une demande sous-jacente solidement \u00e9tablie, peu de clients consacreront leur temps ou leur argent \u00e0 l'\u00e9tude d'un produit ou d'un service \u2013 et, malheureusement, la demande peut \u00eatre \u00e9ph\u00e9m\u00e8re. Nous avons tous constat\u00e9 des baisses de la demande et de la croissance apr\u00e8s une acquisition, et ce genre d'op\u00e9rations est toujours source de d\u00e9ception. De plus, il est impossible de r\u00e9ussir ses investissements sans une demande forte et en croissance.<\/p><\/div>\n\n

\n\n

Mes offres pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9es sont celles qui combinent les trois facteurs suivants\u00a0:<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Les facteurs de demande sont extr\u00eamement solides ou en croissance ; et<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. La valeur de la marque de l'entreprise cible se situe dans le haut du milieu de gamme (mais pas au-del\u00e0) ; et<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. La valeur de la marque de l'entreprise cible ne pr\u00e9sente aucun inconv\u00e9nient majeur et pr\u00e9pond\u00e9rant sur aucun des principaux crit\u00e8res de choix des clients.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    Trop d'op\u00e9rations sont sur\u00e9valu\u00e9es avec une combinaison exactement inverse, et un enthousiasme excessif se concentre sur un acteur majeur.<\/p>\n\n

    En tant que futur propri\u00e9taire dont la mission est non seulement de surfer sur la vague, mais aussi d'am\u00e9liorer les r\u00e9sultats, pr\u00e9f\u00e9reriez-vous miser sur vos comp\u00e9tences pour stimuler la demande ou pour influencer les choix\u00a0? L'existence de puissants moteurs de demande facilite grandement les choses. Et lorsque la notori\u00e9t\u00e9 de la marque est mod\u00e9r\u00e9e, les opportunit\u00e9s de cr\u00e9er de la valeur en tant que propri\u00e9taire augmentent consid\u00e9rablement.<\/p>\n\n

    Il existe des cas particuliers o\u00f9 l'entreprise cible poss\u00e8de des comp\u00e9tences exceptionnellement pointues en mati\u00e8re de d\u00e9veloppement de march\u00e9 et semble savoir comment cr\u00e9er un lien fort entre ces comp\u00e9tences et la pr\u00e9f\u00e9rence de marque (comme GoPro et Apple). Une prime peut alors s'av\u00e9rer tr\u00e8s int\u00e9ressante, \u00e0 condition que le potentiel de la demande soit important. Peu d'entreprises excellent dans ce domaine, et ces atouts peuvent v\u00e9ritablement distinguer un investissement lorsqu'on identifie ces rares cas. Le pi\u00e8ge pour les investisseurs est de confondre un segment minoritaire avec le march\u00e9 de masse.<\/p>\n\n

    Pour analyser la demande avec pr\u00e9cision, il est indispensable de r\u00e9pondre solidement \u00e0 ces cinq questions fondamentales\u00a0:<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    1. Pourquoi les gens ach\u00e8tent-ils (quelle est la nature du besoin sous-jacent auquel cela r\u00e9pond) ?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Qu'est-ce qui d\u00e9clenche l'achat\u00a0?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Qu'est-ce qui d\u00e9clenche le volume sonore ?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Existe-t-il de v\u00e9ritables facteurs de perturbation qui menacent les trois r\u00e9ponses pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes\u00a0? Quels sont les moteurs de la demande qui s\u2019essoufflent et lesquels qui s\u2019amplifient\u00a0? Et pour quels segments (les grands segments \u00e0 forte croissance ou les petits segments \u00e0 croissance plus lente)\u00a0?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Quel est le lien entre le taux de p\u00e9n\u00e9tration actuel d'une solution par rapport \u00e0 la taille totale du march\u00e9 potentiel, et existe-t-il une chance que les segments qui l'ont adopt\u00e9e repr\u00e9sentent davantage le plein potentiel plut\u00f4t que la partie \u00e9merg\u00e9e de l'iceberg\u00a0?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      \u00c9tant donn\u00e9 leur importance fondamentale pour l'acquisition, abordez ces questions d\u00e8s le d\u00e9but du processus d'audit pr\u00e9alable et faites preuve de la plus grande rigueur. Surtout, ne laissez aucun membre de l'\u00e9quipe confondre (ou pr\u00e9senter) une hypoth\u00e8se comme un fait non v\u00e9rifi\u00e9 ou insuffisamment v\u00e9rifi\u00e9.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
