English term or phrase: tuck-under
Buenas tardes/noches, colegas.

Espero que todos estén muy bien.

Quería solicitarles ayuda con respecto a este término, tuck-under utilizado como un sustantivo. El presidente de una fábrica de cartones está comentando a sus empleados el avance que han realizado y de la posibilidad que tuvieron de devolverle a los accionistas dinero a través de un enfoque equilibrado de asignación de capitales y aparece el término tuck-under. No creo que sea "subterráneo" o "poner debajo/meter debajo de algo" como siempre se lo suele considerar.

You see we returned $89 million of cash to shareholders. That’s part of our balanced capital allocation approach, that we invest in the business. We do smart tuck-unders, and we return excess capital to shareholders.


¿Se referirá al efecto de aviación?

¡Gracias!

adquisición mediante absorción


Explanation:
Por lo que pude ver son adquisiciones o absorciones. Si bien tu texto dice <tuck-unders>, yo creo que se refiere a las <tuck-in acquisitions>. Igualmente, pondría otra frase porque está claro que no está hablando técnicamente. ...hacemos absorciones inteligentes... o cómo se te ocurra.

No creo que tenga nada que ver con aviación.


...The term, tuck-in, refers to the idea that the acquisition is being "tucked in" under the infrastructure of the platform company...
