Abstract To buy the technology or to gain the innovative capacity? Studies on crossborder mergers and acquisitions (CBMAs) conducted by emerging market firms have been a puzzle. In this study, it attempts to investigate the ongoing influence of crossborder M&A (CBMA) on the innovation performance of enterprises and the persistent effect of CBMA in emerging markets. This paper not only considers the influence of CBMA, but also innovatively studies the relationship between absorbs procedure and postacquisition innovation performance. The result shows that Chinese firms can significantly promote their innovation performances through CBMA, but such influence is gradually weakening in the long term. As is shown in further research, the Stateowned enterprises (SOEs), compared with the NonStateowned enterprises, have more advantage in postacquisition innovation performance, and this effect can last longer. Moreover, Returnee Top Management Team (TMT) can also help companies get better innovation performance through CBMA, but Returnee Top management team are not good for the longterm retention of this effect. Therefore, this paper is of great significance to explore the longterm influence of CBMA on the innovation performance of enterprises.
