In the third quarter of 2022, we noticed a significant decrease in the volume of M&A transactions compared to the second quarter - by approx. 16 pp. However, the second quarter was a record period. 74 transactions recorded in Q3 are therefore still a high result, which in the yoy perspective is approx. 8% higher. The uncertainty caused by the rise in inflation, interest rates and energy commodity prices, as well as the war in Ukraine, did not put the mergers and acquisitions on hold, as was the case at the peak of the pandemic. What was the transaction structure in the analyzed period?
PE/VC funds still reluctant to buy

In percentage terms, the activity of PE/VC funds among buyers almost doubled after falling to 4 acquisitions recorded in the second quarter of the year. However, 7 acquisitions are still not much compared to the purchasing activity of the sector in 2021 (11 acquisitions in the same period). A decline in the volume of acquisitions may be due to the investment cycle, but is more likely to be the result of uncertainty in global markets, which means that funds place greater emphasis on their current portfolio to secure the business foundations of their assets, rather than looking for purchasing opportunities. However, the time for buyouts may come in the next quarter and at the turn of the year due to the increasingly difficult situation of companies facing further increases in energy prices and raw material shortages.
