Target exceeded twice


Hi,



In the following sentence I wish to convey that the company’s total acquisitions during 2008 were twice as much as the acquisition target set at the beginning of the year. Does the sentence convey that? Are there any better variations?



In 2008, the company exceeded its acquisition target twice.



Thanks,



MG.

Musicgold In 2008, the company exceeded its acquisition target by a factor of two .. If you saw "twice," that means that the target was exceeded 2 times during the year (for example; June and October)
