BACK IN THE GAME: THE RISE OF US M&A – JOHN REISS, GREGORY PRYOR

Acquisitions in the United States have seen a remarkable resurgence after a tough few years​

Mergermarket is pleased to present Back in the game: The rise of US M&A, in association with White & Case. The report looks at key issues and trends driving the recovery of the M&A market in the United States.

The first half of 2014 has witnessed a great dealmaking revival in the US. Using Mergermarket data, the report reveals that deal values are up to their highest levels in five years, the use of shares to finance deals has hit a six-year high and inbound M&A into the United States has posted the best first half on record since 2007.

Other highlights include:

• Megadeals dominate: In Q2 2014 the volume of deals over US$1bn reached the highest level since 2008.  Consolidations in the TMT sector and moves by pharma companies to avoid patent cliffs have supported megadeal volumes.
• Acquisitions being welcomed by investors. So far in 2014, 59% of acquiring companies saw their share price rise the day after a deal announcement, the highest percentage in the last four years.
• Private equity in the exit era: Private equity firms sold 458 deals worth US$155.1bn in H1 2014, a rise of 55% in volume and 200% in value on H1 2013 levels.
