SectorConsolidation
Sector consolidation continues to drive M&A

StockConsideration
Stock consideration has become a more favorable M&A currency as technology stock prices have recovered
Most technology companies have been trading at or close to their three-year highs
In some recent deals, cash consideration has been linked to stock consideration as acquirors tap into the equity markets to raise funds for acquisitions
Improvements in capital markets have allowed companies to raise cash at a low cost through convertibles or straight equity

Issued convertible
Serena / Merant ($380mm)

Private Equity Activity
Private equity players continue to show interest in acquiring technology companies
Some technology stocks have enjoyed only limited participation in the market recovery
Low interest rates have enabled private equity players to borrow at low costs to fund acquisitions
The downturn has created companies with lower cost structures and higher profitability
The recent market recovery has provided private equity players with better exit opportunities
