Abstract: Integration of companies is a very difficult process consisting of several phases. The complexity of this process highlights the number of unsuccessful integrations of companies worldwide. After completing the integrative process, the evaluation of adjusted results should follow which is in practice very often neglected. The reason is that the process of evaluating successfulness of mergers and acquisitions is challenging and time-consuming. Although the evaluation of successfulness of mergers and acquisitions is a challenging process, enterprises should not neglect it, because it can provide a lot of valuable information and detect serious problems in integrated companies. The presented paper considers the methods of evaluating successfulness of mergers and acquisitions applied abroad as well as the methods used in the Slovak Republic. It also presents results of realised research aimed at evaluating the success of completed mergers of the Slovak companies by means of indicators of financial analysis.

Key Words: Mergers; Acquisitions; Financial Analysis; Market Value; Evaluation; Success of Mergers and Acquisitions; Research; the Slovak Republic.
