We are excited to release our inaugural “Software M&A Activity Report” to complement our other periodic research reports, including the Benchmark Report, analysing public company valuations, and the B&C Rounds Report covering private growth capital financings.
We hope you find this report insightful and valuable.
Report highlights
- Total software M&A deal value has nearly doubled since Q4-22, following the dramatic drop off in Q3-22 as activity normalises to pre-2021 levels
- Deals under $1bn in value make up less than 13% of the total transaction values in Q2-23, having not seen any growth since the tech sell-off
- The US leads the charge in mega deals, with all deals over $10bn in H1-23 occurring in the US
