A failure to actively extend the ankle at the same time is a sign of a peroneal nerve palsy; an isolated toe problem suggests an L5 radiculopathy. If you are concerned that MTP pain with maximal extension is inhibiting this motion, you can test fuction this starting in maximal plantar flexion (second figure).
What is a 'Vertical Merger'. A vertical merger is a merger between two companies that operate at separate stages of the production process for a specific finished product. A vertical merger occurs when two or more firms, operating at different levels within an industry's supply chain, merge operations. Most often, the logic behind the merger is to increase synergies created by merging firms that would be more efficient operating as one.
Definition. Voluntary amalgamation of two firms on roughly equal terms into one new legal entity. Mergers are effected by exchange of the pre-merger stock (shares) for the stock of the new firm. Owners of each pre-merger firm continue as owners, and the resources of the merging entities are pooled for the benefit of the new entity. If the merged entities were competitors, the merger is called horizontal integration, if they were supplier or customer of one another, it is called vertical integration.
