Q2 2022 Software & Technology M&A Market Update
After a record-setting 2021, Q2 2022 experienced a pullback in valuations and overall deal volume on the heels of fiscal policy changes and record CPI increases in each month. Despite the overall pullback, software M&A continues to dominate global transaction volume with software representing over 30% of deals completed in Q2 as sponsors find new ways to invest in the market via public targets and tuck-in acquisitions.
