M&A radar: DSV Panalpina – fear the boomerang effect on key accounts from top staff negotiations

In M&A, one rule of thumb is that there are no written rules of engagement when it comes to financial targets being met.
So I did my best to ignore the ongoing negotiations between DSV management and key Panalpina (PAN) staff about contracts, money and even severance packages. But this is a crucial point in the early days of integration between the two logistics providers and will be central for the …

M&A radar: DSV Panalpina – bits and pieces after ‘the biggest dip on red day’

I was bombarded yesterday when DSV stock plunged over 5% to Dkr645 at one point during the trading session, but its later strength and today’s action – we are back up to Dkr662 – suggest the weakness might be just a one-off event.
“It’s minus Dkr38 a share” for the day, one outsider pointed out, sharing the screengrab below.

Now we are back “from Dkr645.40 to Dkr653” he later added, while another …

M&A radar: DSV Pan’s new look already done in Americas, next up Asia, Europe

“Country management announced in the Americas” was the alert I got after the market closed on Friday from some senior outsiders, whom I nicknamed “Mr Original Toppings”.
They eagerly shared their latest findings regarding the DSV Panalpina set-up, opening to several threads in which virtually all market participants in my trusted community had their say.
Fair 
Taking a look at the DSV/PAN leadership break-down for MDs by country, the first impression was that DSV …

M&A radar: DSV Panalpina – here is the ‘organisational chart’ for its core units

I have spent the past 24 hours in Switzerland, talking about DSV Panalpina – and Kuehne + Nagel.
Was it worth it?
Yes and no.
Big decisions were made already in Copenhagen, while Schindellegi is silent (and in defensive mode).
Anyway,, how is the DSV + Panalpina tie-up going to look in terms of leadership in its core air and sea freight divisions (which represent the vast majority of net revenues and ebit at combined …

Market Insight: K+N still leads race for 2nd place in air freight against DSV Panalpina. Just…

My grandma used to tell me that “there is no excuse for stupidity” but often her blunt remarks, as she grew older and wiser tying to teach me how to behave, also echoed those of Thomas Henry Huxley, who once said that the man of science “has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification”.

I miss her so much, particularly on days such as these when I could have done …
