abstract = {Making acquisitions, although a popular strategy, may not always lead to positive firm performance. Researchers have offered several explanations for this relationship. One is that acquisitions lead to lower investments in R\&D and curtail the championing process whereby organization members internally promote new products and processes in firms. The current research found that acquisitions had negative effects on "R\&D intensity" and "patent intensity."},

}
Hitt et al argue that acquisitions are substitutes for R&D/patents and other investments. We should keep this in mind when using these as regressors in the same equation.
