IT Services
IT services offers unique opportunities and challenges to managers, acquirers and investors alike. Clients need an adviser with deep understanding of the sub-sector, who can move quickly enough to help capture opportunities as they arise.
The IT Services M&A market has been humming along and what we’ve seen so far this year doesn’t seem off-key. Middle-market transaction volume is strong and valuations are generally in line with historical averages. Simply put, there are plenty of public acquirers with money to spend on the right prospects.
