The TTM – Q1 2015
Another busy year for Livingstone—all signs point to continued momentum in 2015
Our pipeline suggests this robust deal market is here to stay for the next several quarters.
In 2014, we were very active in each of our core sectors – industrial, healthcare, business services, consumer, and media:tech — across M&A, debt capital markets, and even special situations. Strong activity in both Europe and the U.S. allowed us to further establish our reputation and track record in complex international and cross-border transactions.
With capital at the ready and a favorable financing market, privately-held and institutionally-owned companies alike are looking to exit before the market finds the other side of its peak. It seems all private equity-owned companies that can be positioned as growth platforms are on the block regardless of traditional hold periods. We agree with their assessment — now is clearly an excellent time to consider a range of exit alternatives. We are advising our clients contemplating a sale or monetization event that they risk more than they stand to gain by not acting — at least for next 12 to 24 months.
