Angelozzi was asked about previous cross-border M&A that had failed to deliver on initial expectations and why he felt this time was different.
He said Cirsa wass already a well-managed company and in previous deals, it had tried to make too many changes to an asset. “First of all, in many cases you had M&A which was of assets that were second tier. The promise was to completely change the nature and the competitive position of the asset, in many cases, a turnaround.
