account for the 8 years period of 2001 to 2009. The analytical technique
employed to answer the study questions and test the stated hypothesis was the
student t-test technique. The t-values of the profit after tax, net assets and
earnings per share were significant at 5% level of significance, indicating
that mergers and acquisitions significantly had positive effect on the firm's
profit after tax, net assets and earnings per share. It is concluded that since
mergers and acquisition increase firm's profitability which is evident in the
improvement of the profits, net assets and earnings per share firms should
therefore be encouraged to merge as it is an effective method of corporate
