Some insight:

These two companies have been fierce competitors, a lot of
bad blood between them due to cut-throat competition and
some other legal issues which were contested in court.

The secondary goal in the takeover was of course
the elimination of EVS strongest competitor.

The primary goal, naturally, to benefit from each others
stronger points.
