A new report from Firmex in partnership with Mergermarket, Mid-Market M&A: The Valuation Gap, reveals that amidst a valuation gap between buyers and sellers, corporate cash holdings and private equity dry powder remain at high levels and appetite for mid-market deals should remain robust.
According to interviews with six M&A professionals and data provided by Mergermarket, a downturn in the US economy could potentially help close the valuation gap between buyers and sellers.
Not surprisingly, the majority of experts interviewed pegged the technology sector to see the most pronounced valuation gap, followed by life sciences.
