Taking under consideration the results, achieved in individual quarters of 2018, in the Q3 we recorded the highest number of transactions so far – 51 (50 for Q1, 48 for Q2). The technology, media and telecom as well as the industrial sectors enjoyed a lot of investors’ interest. Solaris Bus & Coach takeover by Spanish company CAF for approximately EUR 300 M (in terms of Enterprise Value) was the largest transaction of the prior quarter. While the acquisition itself was not a surprise for us, the interesting twist of the campaign turned out to be the fact that the Polish Development Fund is taking over 35% of the carrier’s shares, ensuring that the potential of Solaris in Poland will be maintained.

The popularity of Virtual Data Room on the Polish M&A market remains stable. The use of Virtual Data Room technology during the transaction, which guarantees secure access to confidential documents to the other party of the process, is the subject of growing interest, especially after the entry into force of the RODO. The publicly available data show that in the third quarter of 2018 as much as 37% of transactions were organized using this technology (as in the prior quarter).
