Abstract

This study examines the stock market reaction and the determinants of this reaction to the announcements of company acquisitions for acquiring firms in the Turkish Stock Market during the period 1994-2013. Standard event study methodology is used to measure abnormal returns of acquiring companies during the announcement period. Contrary to the findings in the developed markets, the acquirers in Turkey earn a significant positive cumulative abnormal return of 2.27% during an 11-day announcement period. Acquirer returns are higher in mergers compared to acquisitions, and in same business acquisitions compared to unrelated acquisitions. However, no statistically significant evidence is observed for the effect of a target firm's country of origin (domestic vs cross-border), or public status on the acquirer announcement period returns.

Özet

Bu çalışma, 1994-2013 yılları arasında Türkiye pay piyasasındaki şirket birleşme ve satın alma haberlerinin satın alan şirket hisse senedi üzerindeki etkisini ve bu etkinin belirleyici etmenlerini incelemiştir. Satın alan şirketlerin anormal pay getirileri standart olay çalışması yöntemi kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. Gelişmiş ülke piyasalarında yapılan çalışmaların aksine, Türkiye'de satın alan şirketlerin duyuru günü merkezli 11 günlük zaman aralığında yüzde 2.27 oranında kümülatif anormal getiri elde ettiği ortaya konmuştur. Satın alan şirketlerin pay getirileri, şirket evliliklerinde kısmi satın almalara kıyasla ve benzer sektör birleşmelerinde farklı sektör birleşmelerine kıyasla daha yüksektir. Bununla beraber, hedef şirketin orijin ülkesinin (yerli veya uluslararası) ve halka açıklık durumunun satın alan şirketin pay getirileri üzerinde istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisi gözlemlenmemiştir.
