Filing language.
Direct excerpts from acquisition disclosures and strategy sections: the verbs the buyer chose, in the filings they signed.
“Related to the acquisition of ARRIS, we are on track to deliver at least $75 million in cost synergies in the first year post close and we expect to exceed our target annual run-rate savings of $150 million ahead of the third anniversary of the close of the ARRIS transaction.”
“We continuously pursue strategic initiatives aimed at optimizing our utilization of resources by reducing manufacturing and distribution costs and optimizing our overall cost structure.”
“We are ahead of plan on our commitment around the ARRIS synergy capture and have successfully reorganized the combined business around our end markets.”
“Our business strategy has historically relied, in part, on acquisitions to create growth, such as our acquisitions of Casa in 2024”
“We anticipate that a portion of our future growth may be accomplished by acquiring existing businesses, products or technologies”
