    Wilkerson Company Case

    1. The Wilkerson Company is in the business of manufacturing valves, pumps and flow controllers. The company has been experiencing profit losses due to price reductions as a result of heavy competition in the pump category, which is considered a commodity product. In the valves category, Wilkerson seems to be a market leader with a loyal customer base. The valve business is less competitive, with no price reductions, and therefore the company has maintained its gross margin target while not compromising market share. Similarly to the valve business, the flow controller category is not as competitive as the pump industry, hence Wilkerson's ability to increase price by 10% without sacrificing volume. In addition, the company needs to take into consideration its increase in indirect expenses relatively to the direct labor expenses. All in all, the company has seen its pre-tax margin decrease from 10% to 3%.…

    Newell case

    Newell, manufacturer and marketer of basic home and hardware products, is a rather unrelated diversified company with more than 30 operating businesses. Grown over the years through many acquisitions, the company is facing one of her most important challenge: the acquisition of Calphalon (high-quality cookware) and Rubbermaid (plastic products). Both the acquisition were part of that period’s CEO’s plan to increase Newell’s strength on the market, and to boost the capitalization to $10 billion, in order to reach higher EPS and, in so doing, create more value for shareholders. Calphalon is a private high-end aluminum cookware manufacturer, distributed in department and specialty stores and with a new developing product line for the mass retailer Target. Analyzing Calphalon’s issues, it comes out that its acquisition by Newell (consisting in a process of related diversification) would create value for both companies. In fact we must consider all the valuable things that this cookware manufacturer has to offer to its acquirer and vice versa: new channels where to sell premium products, that is to say non-mass merchandise markets, without cannibalizing Newell’s products sold in mass retailer stores (remember that Newell owns other cookware manufacturers); enhancement of competitive advantage through skills sharing, like Calphalon’s expertise in developing pull strategies and building strong connection with final consumers; strengthen Newell’s reputation by acquiring a prestigious brand name, thus not only functional objects, but also emotional ones; existence of a still profitable market in which other competitors haven’t reached a real leading position yet. About this last point, it’s important to highlight that the acquisition by Newell is fundamental for Calphalon in order to reduce its prices, always 20% higher than its main competitor Mayer. According to the theory, if the diversification has solid foundation, it allows to…
