The Stephen Harper Conservatives returned to power last month in convincing fashion, forming a stronger minority than they previously held and trouncing the Liberals in the process. One campaign promise that undoubtedly won some votes in this industry was Harper’s promise to slash the federal excise tax on diesel in half – from four cents per litre to two.

However, one must wonder if that promise will ever come to fruition. The promised fuel tax hike is in jeopardy, not entirely because of the Conservatives’ own doing, but because of a shameful move by the just-defeated Liberals and NDPers to form a coalition and attempt to overthrow the government we just elected.

If the Liberal/NDP coalition should successfully overturn the Conservatives, it will be a dark day for Canada, especially if Stephane Dion is chosen to act as PM. (Bob Rae’s not a better option either – as Ontario Premier, the NDPer-turned-Liberal proved he can plunge an economy into recession even without the global pressures faced today).

Canadians made it clear on election day last month that neither the Liberals nor the NDP are the right choice to lead this country through the rough waters ahead. However, due to backdoor politicking, it appears Canada’s decision to re-elect a Conservative government may be for naught. It’s embarrassing really. What kind of message does that send to Canadians? That our vote really didn’t matter, after all?

An unelected Liberal/NDP coalition government would make a mockery of democracy. Harper himself must share some of the blame for the situation he now finds himself in. His decision to slash federal funding for political parties really shook up the hornet’s nest. (Learn to pick your battles, man!)

But despite his recent missteps, I still feel Harper and his team are best-suited to lead us through this recession. We may never find out if the Conservatives will come good on their promise to slash the excise tax on diesel. Finance Minister Jim Flaherty is slated to release the federal budget in January – let’s hope he has the chance.

Last week I had the pleasure of participating in a shipper – carrier roundtable sponsored by Motortruck Fleet Executive magazine and Shaw Tracking. Lou Smyrlis, the moderator, raised the subject of industry consolidation with the group that was assembled. The consensus seemed to be that industry consolidation will continue in 2009 as it has in 2008, albeit under a new set of constraints imposed by the current economic downturn.

Bob Costello, Chief Economist of the American Trucking Associations, mentioned in a speech this week at the Institute Trade and Transport Conference that October volumes were unusually weak and reflect the downturn in the North America economy. This is worrisome since October is usually the best month of the year for activity. This does not auger well for those transport companies that have been in a survival mode during the “freight recession” of the past couple of years.

Is this the time to buy or sell a freight transportation company? There are several events that are having a direct bearing on the industry at this time. These include the credit crisis that has adversely affected the purchasing of houses and automobiles. Weakening economic fundamentals are causing unemployment levels to rise. In addition, the downturn in the value of housing and the stock markets are causing many middle class folks to feel insecure and fearful and less willing to spend money. The combination of all of these forces is driving down the demand for manufactured goods and retail volumes, the lifelines of freight transportation.

While these forces are at play, shippers are extending payment terms and carriers are facing tougher times borrowing money. Small trucking companies with a limited supply of customers and limited sales resources are particularly vulnerable. The end result is that this is an extraordinarily difficult time to run a transportation company.

We have more struggling transportation companies than ever before and they are cheaper to buy than they have been in many years. Mergers and acquisitions will continue, particularly for those companies with lots of cash on their balance sheets. However, buyers will be more deliberate in their approach. As we are seeing in the stock market, some sellers are simply capitulating and saying that this is the time to get out.

It should be pointed out that a number of studies have shown that over sixty percent of mergers and acquisitions fail. Despite the best of intentions, failure can be a result of several factors. In some cases, inadequate due diligence is done. Some of the assumptions made leading up to the purchase are incorrect. In other cases, no non-compete is signed with the owners. They may leave and form a new entity that competes “head on” with the acquired company. In addition to the owners, some other key people may leave and take some of the business with them.

For a number of mergers, the expected synergies and cost savings don’t materialize and/or the revenue stream does not meet expectations. In certain situations, the merger comes unglued due to poorly planned integration efforts, in sales and/or operations, or due to a culture clash between the employees of the two businesses. Customer affecting service changes, the departure of trusted customer service, dispatch or sales personnel (to a competitor) may drive customers to another transportation company. Many times the old owners find it difficult to function within the new owner’s environment or lose motivation due to the big payday they received.

What can you do to increase the odds of success?

The shipper- carrier roundtable participants suggested that the high failure rate will not stop the freight carrier consolidation movement. The current economic difficulties will likely spur an increase in desperate sellers and interested buyers. Critical success factors include:

• An assessment of the growth that can be achieved organically versus through acquisition, within a prescribed period
• A careful assessment of the synergies that are at play and the integration hurdles that may be faced
• Having a clear focus on whether the proposed acquisition is the right strategic fit
• Performing a thorough due diligence that looks at revenue growth, cost reductions, cultural fit, ROI, risk factors, retention of key employees
• An understanding of the expected competitor behaviour
• Effective management of human resources and customers
• Excellent post implementation follow up
• A thorough assessment of the financial risks and rewards

As has been proven time and time again, even the best due diligence cannot anticipate all of the challenges that lie ahead. Often the post acquisition reality is very different from the picture painted during the period leading up to the purchase. On the other hand, a successful acquisition can fill a void in a company’s service and/or geographic coverage and boost financial results. Therefore the best advice is buyer beware!
