IndustryViews M&A quarterly review

IVMA Q1 10In the latest edition of IndustryViews M&A, there’s some good news on valuation multiples for the SITS sector, which continued their march upwards as European tech sector valuations weakened again.  You can also enjoy a ‘back to the future’ moment, reading about a long-established privately held UK player ‘snapped up’ by an American giant 5 years ago, and returned to private hands earlier this year for one-tenth of the original price. Which only goes to show that ‘big buys small’ can cause just as much value destruction as ‘small buys big’.

The latest issue of our quarterly series of IndustryViews notes on the UK software and IT services M&A scene is now available for download here for TechMarketView Foundation Service clients.
