MEMO TO CEO

Write a two to three page memo to the Loewen CEO with your recommendation regarding the $43 per share takeover offer from SCI. You’re writing the memo as a trusted senior executive at Loewen. The CEO has asked for your opinion because he knows you bring a very objective and strategic viewpoint to situations. provide an objective analysis at the situation, highlight the major factors that you feel are relevant, and make a recommendation as to whether to accept or decline the offer. You’ll need to look internally at both companies and externally at the industry to present a strategic analysis of the situation and an evaluation of the options. Your recommendation will need to address both the narrative test and the numbers test.
