• Despite strong initial anticipations for 2025 tech M&A, market volatility over the past two months from tariffs / threat of a trade war and stubborn inflation have contributed to subdued deal activity as the market awaits more stable conditions.
• Although financial sponsors face growing hold periods for existing portfolio companies and are starved for new platform investment opportunities, 2025 tech M&A deal count has been muted so far.
• Macroeconomic stability, when it arrives, could bring to bear the pent-up demand of sponsor-backed sellers and buyers into the market, generating high levels of deal activity.
