Going out and sharing our faith is a key aspect of living the Christian life. In today's world, full of fear, pain, and chaos, people need to hear about the love of Jesus more than ever. But, how do we do this? What does it look like to actually put this into action? Go M.A.D. (Make a Difference): Showing Jesus's Love to Others by M.A. Cookson is an inspiring book which delves deep into how readers can go into the world and effectively share the love of Christ with others. Throughout the book, Cookson examines different Scripture passages and provides commentary on foundational spiritual concepts while also sharing experiences from his own faith journey. This provides an in-depth look at what the Word teaches us about sharing the love of Christ and practical ways to walk it out. God has laid it on the author's spirit to treat others as Jesus treated people while He was on earth, and this book explores the meaning of that. Inspired to write at the Holy Spirit's instruction, Cookson initially struggled with fulfilling this calling, but as he submitted himself to the Lord's will, the book came to life, and now God's purpose is being accomplished through it. M.A. Cookson is a Data Analyst, Writer, Father, and Husband. His hobbies include volleyball, Jeepin, being a cheerleader to his kids, and being with family. He never felt a calling into vocational ministry, but has always felt a calling to do more for Jesus. As a kid, He thought he would create Christian video games. He answered the calling of God and instead of writing video games, he has written a book about Jesus. You can contact M.A. Cookson on his website www.macookson.com or his email [email protected]
Today Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) are often considered the most efficient and rapid way for organisations to transform their business and keep up with a constantly changing environment. And, because of the pressure from globalisation, companies will continue to pursue these opportunities in order to remain fruitful and innovative regardless of market fluctuations and economic variations. In this regard, the pharmaceutical industry is probably one of the first that comes to mind. Over the past twenty years or so, the concept of scale economy along with the need of continuously pursuing technological innovation have become more and more prominent in the Pharma world. A growing trend has been observed in this industry in the recent years, with an increasing number of mergers and acquisitions taking place across all geographies and therapeutic areas, thanks to a particularly favourable Regulatory environment, convenient interest rates and important tax reforms. The objective of this book is to analyse the different aspects that characterise mergers and acquisitions in the Pharmaceutical Industry to help the reader build a broader perspective of the subject and the most critical aspects to consider when evaluating a deal.

This book presents more than two dozen chapters to help you navigate the cannabis and hemp mergers and acquisitions (M&A) process. The authors have a bias for the "sell side" of M&A (advising companies that are offering themselves for acquisition), and in this book they cover the basics of preparing a company for that acquisition process. But the business principles covered here are just as applicable if you are an acquirer. (The authors have advised acquirers as well). So, there is something within these pages for every aspect of the industry. In these chapters, the authors outline how to position a company for the highest possible value, and lay out what you can expect during the entire arc of the acquisitions and due-diligence processes. Mergers and acquisitions activity in the cannabis and hemp sector is the most-active it has ever been, and it will only get hotter with each passing month. The drivers of such intense activity - and the reasons for today's strong company valuations - are broadcast with headlines in every major news outlet in North America: It's the broad (and growing) legalization of cannabis and hemp products. For hemp in the U.S., the 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp throughout all 50 states for the first time. For cannabis, the legalization has been rolling across the land on a state-by-state basis. As this book is headed to the printer, in early 2019, eleven U.S. states have legalized both medical and recreational marijuana. Twenty two additional states have legalized medical marijuana. In total, 32 states and the District of Columbia have some form of legalized marijuana. Other states will soon follow. And then there's Canada, where the legalization has been on a national scale. The estimated size of just the Canadian marijuana market ranges between $4 and $6 billion U.S. dollars for 2019. What's equally remarkable about the cannabis and hemp sectors is the company valuations that are being achieved in mergers and acquisitions activity. But take note of something interesting: Even as cannabis and hemp products are coming out of the shadows of illegality, the metrics by which these companies are values are actually very traditional. Indeed, they are the same metrics that have been used for decades to establish the values of other companies, entirely unrelated to cannabis and hemp. Such performance metrics as gross profit margins, EBITDA, OPEX, and COGs are all used in the cannabis and hemp sector, just as they are in other industries. That said, there is something unusual about the cannabis and hemp sectors, and that's high valuations achieved in the sales of these companies. Those valuations (the total enterprise values paid to acquire companies) are being paid not just on historical company performance; instead, there is often a premium paid for the expected growth in cannabis and hemp markets. That growth is not limited just to retail operations that are marketing cannabis and hemp products, but in other areas as well, such as laboratory and compliance testing services, regulatory compliance equipment, and infrastructure for farming operations needed to grow and process cannabis and hemp at industrial scales. When you recognize that the 2018 market size for cannabis and hemp in Nevada alone was $615 million, and that Oregon was $650 million, and that Colorado was $1.7 billion, you don't need an MBA from the Harvard Business School to recognize that these large-volume industries need support services of a magnitude we have historically seen in "big pharma." That's true whether services are focused on product creation, product packaging, product transportation, or product testing. So, it's really not a surprise to see cannabis and hemp mergers and acquisition activity spike up the way it is trending now. Read on and learn how to take full advantage of this hot market
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is a growing market which is attracting increasing interest from local and foreign investors alike. With competition on the rise, the region has also seen significant developments in M&A activity. This trend has been driven by investors from around the world, drawn by the opportunities that the region has to offer, and by local companies seeking to consolidate their market share. Although the entire MENA region has unique investment potential, each jurisdiction presents specific opportunities and challenges in the context of M&A deals. This book highlights the idiosyncrasies and trends that define and distinguish each jurisdiction, while providing up-to-date and practical advice for legal professionals advising on deals. In-house lawyers and potential investors will also benefit from this valuable guide. It is designed to assist professionals in keeping pace with potential M&A transactions in which they are involved, and to provide insight into common business practices and challenges in the region. This book includes country chapters on Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and the United Arab Emirates. Each chapter provides an overview of the jurisdiction’s corporate and commercial context, an analysis of the business environment and a guide to the requirements and challenges of conducting M&A transactions on the ground, including coverage of structuring, merger agreements, post-merger issues and case studies. M&A in the Middle East presents unique insights into each market. It is a practical guide that assists those involved in M&A deals in managing risk and expectations, while also ensuring that deals are closed as efficiently as possible.
