What type of merger/acquisition was the formation (e.g. horizontal, vertical, hostile, friendly etc.). Based on the information you found, what synergy benefits do you believe were primary reason for the collaboration (e.g. shared raw materials, shared customer base, economies of scale etc.):  Reply 1:Amazon is one of the most profitable companies globally. The initial public offering of the Amazon was 3,000, 000 shares common stock. The company sold its shares to the public for the first time on the 15th of May 1997. The company IPO was $18 per share. Amazon had three splits of stock between the years 1998 and 1999. For the two splits, they were 2-for -1 while for the other it was a 3-for-1 split. Concerning the splits, one can receive more shares but stock prices are adjusted in accordance so value of the investment stay the same, it is not money which is free (Amazon.com annual report, 1998). For the company Deutsche Morgan Grenfell Inc. was the acting lead manager plus Alex. Brown & sons incorporated and Hambrecht & Quist were the acting co-managers for underwriting groups. The company did grant underwriters the option of purchasing 450,000 shares from Amazon for purpose of covering the over-allotments in case there are any. Initially, the company was very successful.        The company is obliged to file by 4th May 1999, a shelf registration statement that covers the resale of convertible notes plus common stocks which is issuable upon the conversion of the convertible notes. One of the largest mergers for Amazon was the whole food grocery the company bought in 2018. This was a $13.7 billion buyout which was one of the largest deals in e-commerce veteran history thus adding to the 472 physical stores of Amazon that was formerly all the digital sales models (Bollard, 2019). This was a friendly merger since Amazon took over the company and made it fit into its stores and operations. The deal for whole foods did add to the physical store of Amazon all the digital businesses operations. From this, the company was able to reap profits from their merger due to the increase in the customer base and providing the customers with what they require.     References: Amazon.com Annual report (1998). https://s2.q4cdn.com/299287126/files/doc_financials/annual/123198_10k.pdf   Bollard J., (2019).
