Tequity's Q3'24 Market Report on Supply Chain Tech M&A outlines how this market is changing and what is driving deal volume. Covid continues to have an impact on supply chains globally and has been the catalyst for an increase in deal activity as companies seek to gain efficiencies, get better visibility across their entire supply chain and tighten security. Many companies are pursuing acquisitions to help them plug these technology gaps while additionally growing marketshare.
The last 5 years has seen an increase every year in deal activity in this sector (unlike many other sectors globally that saw dips and slowdowns, especially in 2023) and although valuations declined to a new low in 2023, they have bounced back by almost 3 turns in 2024.
2025 is showing sign it will be a very strong year for M&A in the lower middle-market and founders who are contemplating growth or exit options should consider doing something now to coincide with these favourable market conditions.
