Value-destroying diversification
Some drivers for diversification which may involve value destruction (negative synergies):
Responding to market decline
Spreading thin (risk) (may be destructive, but not necessarily)
N.B. Despite these being common justifications for diversifying, finance theory suggests these are misguided.
Managerial ambition

organisation’s existing resources or competences to new markets or services
• Stretching corporate management competences

Different parenting roles
• portfolio manager – active investor in a way that shareholders in the stock market are either
too dispersed or too inexpert to be able to do

Mostly private equity companies!
But also

– Ruthlessly prune businesses that are not winners
» GE shareholders first!
» From 411,000 employees (1980) to 299,000 (1985)
– Winning is everything
» E-clip

Diversification and performance
True for both Western & Emerging Market firms?

Typical structure Western diversified business (M-form)
• Conglomerate discount! Proof of related or strong corporate capability
• Wholly owned subsidiaries
• No choice but to use/undergo corporate services
• Winners tend to get more attention

Typical structure Emerging Markets diversified business
• Related & unrelated businesses; minimum oversight corporate parent
• All individual businesses are separate companies (legal entities)
• Parent controlling stake; provides trusted brand & non-operational cap.
• Businesses can choose to use or not; brand and political clout Tata most used

• Strong help weak

Another option: outsourcing
Outsourcing is…
the process by which activities previously carried out internally are subcontracted to external suppliers

To integrate or outsource?
Value chain activity / Business…
a) Building block of distinctive strategic capability?
Yes: integrate
No: outsource
b) Prone to opportunism on the part of subcontractors? •Reduce standards
•Extract higher prices
–When there are few subcontractor alternatives
–When product/service is complex & changing (impossible to specify ex ante)
–When investments are needed in specialized assets
Yes: integrate
No: outsource

• Distinctive strategic capability? – “Instant fashion”
• From 1 year to 22 days lead design time
– E.g. Madonna tour in Spain
– Increase “buyer urgency”
• Only 50% in stores at start of a season
– >< 80 % rivals
• Few re-stocks
• Customers willing to pay premium price
– Cheap for mum
– Trendy for daughter

Pros & cns Vertical Int.
• >50% vertical integration: 20 % more expensive
– Higher costs!
» Logistics operations at northwest tip Spain
» Portugal & Morocco are nearby
• Production flexibility: 17-20% profit vs 8-13% competition
– Shortest lead times (2 weeks)
» React fast to consumer fads, do not forecast!
» Smaller batches / more styles, less quantities
• “Little advertising”: 0.3% total costs vs H&M’s 3%
– But best locations in top cities

supported by unusual management style
• “Management as unusual”
• Informal, fast, flat decision-making
– Very down-to-earth, humble founder
» Never gave interview, top models?
» Own office used for visitors
– Power to small teams
» Not full automation!
» But very fast & flexible decision-making
– No-one rules (not even designers)
» Designers very autonomous
» Yet, only 15% designs go into production
» Versus 60% industry average

Problems with BCG matrix
• Core capability becomes core rigidity across business units – From chemical film to digital
• Cannot separate one business unit (cash cow or dog) from another (star)
• Danger of self-fulfilling prophecy? – Motivation problems for cash cows…
• Exaggerated milking
– Become dogs even quicker
• Internal investment assumption? – Can get money from capital markets
• Don’t absolutely need to find internal cash cows
