A&M has developed the “A&M Activist Alert” or “AAA” to predict which corporates will be the next to be targeted. The AAA is the most comprehensive statistical analysis of its kind. The analysis focuses on 1,598 corporates with a market capitalisation of US$200 million or more, listed and headquartered in the U.K., Germany, France, Scandinavia, Switzerland, Benelux, Italy and Spain.
The resulting predictive model successfully predicted the majority of corporates publicly targeted by activists since January 2015. The report is published twice yearly. We do not publicise the AAA scores for individual companies, or those that feature on our Red or Amber lists. However, individual companies can check their position on the Alert List by contacting A&M.
