商務(wù)會(huì )議實(shí)戰演練(3)
In this conversation, Oscar Davidson, the owner of a chain of retail clothing stores, is talking to Kathleen Harbrough, his financial manager, about a big deal one of his competitors has just concluded.
Kathleen: Have you heard the news, Oscar? The InFashion merger with Artingdales has just been approved.
Oscar: Yeah, I heard. They've just leap-frogged ahead of us by a good margin. Our 265 shops nationwide pales in comparison to their 710. On top of that,they now have a top manufacturer as part of their operation.
Kathleen: For sure. Most analysts think that Debusy Manufacturing was the crown jewel of Artingdales.
Oscar: This really gives InFashion a huge competitive advantage over us. Do you have any news on potential acquisitions we might go after?
Kathleen: Actually, I do. You may be a little surprised at this one. I've been checking up on Clarisa Exclusives.
Oscar: Clarisa! They've never shown any interest whatsoever in a merger, and they would probably never agree to an acquisition.
Kathleen: I know, but the time might be right for a takeover.It's not a well-known fact, but their finances are in poor shape. Actually, they could turn out to be a Sleeping Beauty. I think their assets are highly undervalued in the industry.
Oscar: Wow, that would surely put us back in the thick of things. OK, Kathleen, give me a report on the finances involved as soon as you can. Let's go after them!
參考譯文:
在以下這段對話(huà)中,Oscar Davidson是一家服裝零售連鎖店的老板,而Kathleen Harbrough是他的財務(wù)主管。他倆正談?wù)撘粋(gè)競爭對手剛完成的一筆大買(mǎi)賣(mài)。
Kathleen: 嘿,Oscar, 你聽(tīng)說(shuō)了嗎?InFashion和Artingdales已經(jīng)成功合并了。
Oscar: 我聽(tīng)說(shuō)啦。他們已經(jīng)大步向前,把我們遠遠甩在后面了。你看,全國范圍內,我們只有265家店,而他們卻有710家。另外,現在還有一個(gè)頂尖的制造商加入了他們的行列
Kathleen: 的確如此。大多數分析家都認為Debusy制造公司是Arlingdales最具實(shí)力的拳頭部門(mén)。
Oscar: 這無(wú)疑給Infashion增加了不少競爭砝碼,而我們已處于劣勢了。對了,對于我們下一步的收購計劃你有什么目標嗎?
Kathleen: 當然;蛟S你會(huì )有些意外,但我現在確實(shí)在關(guān)注Clarisa專(zhuān)賣(mài)店。
Oscar: Clarisa!他們對合并可從來(lái)沒(méi)有過(guò)什么興趣,我想他們更不會(huì )同意被收購。
Kathleen:我知道,但此一時(shí),彼一時(shí),現在也許正是收購的最佳時(shí)機。他們的財務(wù)狀況可以說(shuō)是一團糟,但這個(gè)事實(shí)卻鮮為人知?梢哉f(shuō)Clarisa現在還是一個(gè)"睡美人".據我所知,他們的資產(chǎn)被業(yè)界大大低估了。
Oscar :好啊,那肯定會(huì )使我們脫離困境的。這樣吧Kathleen,你盡快給我一份涉及相關(guān)財務(wù)狀況的報告,是 我們大顯身手的時(shí)候了!
