Abstract

Cet article étudie dans quelle mesure la politique d'investissement ainsi que la gestion opérationnelle des firmes françaises reprises dans le cadre d'un leveraged buy-out (LBO) peuvent expliquer la dégradation de leur surperformance après l'opération. L'étude empirique porte sur 132 LBO réalisés en France de 1989 à 1994. Les résultats obtenus montrent qu'on ne peut expliquer la réduction anormale de la rentabilité économique de ces firmes par un effet mécanique imputable à des surinvestissements, ni par une dérive de la gestion de leurs actifs et passifs d'exploitation. En revanche, l'augmentation des frais de personnels ainsi que des consommations intermédiaires et/ou des réductions de prix de vente à caractère commercial anormales joueraient un rôle majeur.
