Q2 2024 Market Insights Update

Cabrera Capital Markets Advisory Group has published its latest Q2 2024 Quarterly Newsletter, which highlights notable M&A and capital market activity in the U.S. across various market sectors. The second quarter of 2024 has seen further diminishing macroeconomic headwinds and improving liquidity conditions.

While deal activity has been below expectations so far, add on acquisitions and small to mid-market transactions continue to drive financial and strategic buyers. Deal activity has slightly increased in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, but deal value is moderately lower.

While the public markets have soared to record highs, the marketplace still faces the challenges of high interest rates and geopolitical threats. While taking a slight dip in Q2, valuation multiples have increased on an EBITDA and revenue basis over 2023 levels. While it is a bit too early to say M&A is back, we are encouraged by the recent trends.
