Trying to understand the impact of the adverse economic climate and subsequent instability on certain industries and companies is challenging to say the least.
In our Sector Valuation Insight Report, we have analysed a wide range of businesses, from smaller (<£100m revenue), mid-sized (£100m - £500m) and larger (>£500m revenue) sized businesses. We considered the movement of specific sectors as at March 2023, alongside the transactional volume in each sector over the first quarter of 2023. Which businesses will show resilience against the uncertain economic climate and what is the impact for investors’ existing and prospective portfolios?
April Q1 2023 report - An overview of headline trends as well as sector specific valuations, recent transactions, and related insights.
Overall market trend
Businesses continue to trade and transact with a fairly uncertain economic and political backdrop, with three key challenges across multiple industries being rising inflation, downward pressure on consumer spend, and supply chain issues.
Despite these difficulties, the M&A and investment market continues to be fairly active, with continued funding available and being newly raised, and in most sectors latest deal volumes are broadly in line with those of the same months 12 months prior. The only exception to this is that of Real Estate, which has seen an 86% decline from Apr-22 to Mar 23. Despite this, over 3,000 transactions were completed during the first quarter of 2023.
