4 The global cool-down period in M&A activity has continued with the emergence of the second quarter. In April, global deal value reached 175.8bn with 1,003 deals. Compared to April 2015 with 1,473 transactions worth 294.3bn, total deal value decreased by 40.3% with 470 fewer deals, making it the lowest-valued month of April since Global private equity buyouts, with 161 deals worth 34.9bn, did not experience any major fluctuations, increasing in value by only 0.3% compared to April 2015 (34.9bn, 209 deals). However, compared to the previous month of March with 177 deals worth 15bn, buyouts increased by 133.2%. Exits (21.8bn, 126 deals), on the other hand, dropped by 39.9% compared to April 2015 (36.2bn, 180 deals) with 54 fewer deals. Pharma, Medical & Biotech (PMB) was the leading sector in April 2016 with 81 deals worth 40.7bn, an increase of 392.6% in value compared to April Despite new governmental regulations surrounding tax inversions, the PMB sector continues to significantly influence global M&A values. The main contributing deal, which increased PMB s total value by 73.2%, was the acquisition of US-based medical device company St Jude Medical Inc by pharmaceutical company Abbott Laboratories for 29.8bn, and on its own accounted for almost 17% of the total global M&A value. Unlike PMB, the Energy, Mining & Utilities (EMU) sector decreased 89.9% in value from 129.1bn to 13bn with 52 fewer deals. Global cross-border M&A activity saw 354 transactions with a cumulative disclosed deal value of 53.1bn in April 2016, decreasing substantially by 66.4% compared to April Domestic deals dominated the M&A market in April 2016 with 647 deals worth 122.2bn, dropping by only 10.4% in value compared to the same period in Seven of the top 10 deals were domestic transactions in the month of April, suggesting that corporations are willing to move toward market expansion mainly within their domestic borders. North America was the dominant region for M&A in April 2016 with 310 transactions valued at 87.7bn, accounting for 50% of global total deal value. Compared to April 2015, which had seen 518 deals worth a total of 65.7bn, the cumulative value of North American M&A activity increased by 33.5%, despite seeing 208 fewer deals. Europe and Asia (excluding Japan) experienced the most dramatic slowdown compared the same month last year: Europe, with 405 deals worth 39.8bn, dropped by 71.4% in value, accounting for 22.6% of total global M&A value; similarly, Asia (excluding Japan), with 226 transactions worth 40.1bn, experienced a substantial drawback, dipping in value by 50.9% and accounting at the same time for 22.9% of total global M&A by value. The unstable economic climate in the Eurozone, as well as uncertainties surrounding Chinese markets, most likely had some influence on the M&A slowdown within each region. Taking into account all of the present economic issues surrounding Europe, as well as China, the dominant Asian economy, corporations may decide to put the brakes on their M&A activities in the current year, releasing some air from the M&A bubble of the last couple years.

13 North America continued to see the M&A cool down that began in Q through the month of April with 309 deals worth 87.8bn, a 37% drop in value from April The region also saw its second-lowest monthly value since April 2015 (64.1bn), after this past March, and fell to its lowest deal count since April 2013 (299). Further, this is the sixth straight month that regional deal count has decreased. Pharma, Medical & Biotech (PMB) was the leading sector with 31 deals worth 39.2bn, a 44.7% market share and a 1,388.2% increase in value over April 2015 (2.6bn, 36 deals). This was largely due to the top two North American deals coming from the PMB sector: US-based Abbott Laboratories 29.8bn acquisition of US-based St Jude Medical Inc, the month s top deal, and US-based AbbVie Inc. s 5.8bn acquisition of US-based StemCentRx Inc. Combined, they accounted for 90.9% of North American PMB s total value and 40.6% of the region s value overall. New US Treasury regulations introduced in April 2016 aimed at clamping down on tax inversions have already had some impact on North American deals. The 183.7bn Pfizer/Allergan deal, the largest tax inversion and pharmaceutical transaction in history, lapsed just 24 hours after the latest rules were announced. Because tax inversions have tended to arise out of the PMB sector, it would not be surprising to see fewer megadeals, and therefore lower valuations, for PMB transactions in the future. Separately, in the same month, the US Justice Department filed an antitrust lawsuit to block another megadeal, the 37.2bn Halliburton/Baker Hughes transaction. Within a month, that, too, had lapsed. Private equity buyouts followed the slowdown trend with a total of 58 deals worth 12.8bn in April, an 11.4% drop compared to last year s total values during the same period of 14.5bn, with 31 fewer deals. The largest private equity deal of the month was the China-based Lexmark International consortium s 3.4bn acquisition of US-based Lexmark International. Exits experienced a greater decrease in April, when the space s 38 deals worth 12.1bn represented a 39.8% drop from last year s value of 20.1bn across 87 deals. The US was the most active country in North America for the month, with 274 deals worth 84bn, representing 95.8% of regional market share. This represented an increase of 46.6% by value compared to April 2015, when the US saw 442 deals worth 57.5bn. Canada, on the other hand, saw 35 deals worth 3.7bn, which represented a 43.5% decrease from last year s value, when Canada had 72 deals worth 6.6bn. Last year s North American M&A values will be difficult to emulate in 2016 a slowdown in activity this year would not be surprising. However, with the growing acquisitiveness of China, particularly of US-based targets, regional M&A could see less of a drop than would otherwise be expected during a correctional period. Total inbound value from China in the year-to-date (YTD) has reached its highest level ever at 31.8bn, a 1,243.1% increase over the same period last year, and a rise in volume by 19 transactions from 14 in YTD 2015 to a record 33. However, with increased scrutiny by the American Committee on Foreign Investment in the US (CFIUS) of foreign bidders, maintaining China s rise in the US M&A market could see some challenges ahead. Key Stats 309 deals valued at 87.7bn, up 37.1% by value with 205 fewer deals compared to 514 deals worth 63.9bn in April 15 Top sector Pharma, Medical & Biotech saw 31 deals worth 39.2bn, up 1,388.2% by value compared to 36 deals worth 2.6bn in April 15 Top Financial Adviser Bank of America Merrill Lynch ranked first with 14 deals worth 42.6bn, compared to 11 deals worth 16.9bn in April 15 Top Legal Adviser Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz ranked first with 6 deals worth 39.0bn, compared to 4 deals worth 3.7bn in April 15 13

21 Central and South America saw a continuation this April of the declining M&A trend of the first quarter, capturing just 1.9% of global market share with 24 deals worth 3.4bn, a 1.6% decrease in value and drop in volume by nearly half with 20 fewer deals compared to April The region is also facing growing political instability stemming from an intensifying corruption scandal in Brazil, the region s dominant economy and most populous country. Key Stats 24 deals valued at 3.4bn, down 1.6% by value with 21 fewer deals compared to 45 deals worth 3.4bn in April 15 The month of April experienced its lowest overall value since 2005, which, over the same period, had seen 2.4bn across 23 transactions. To date in 2016, however, this year has outperformed year-to-date (YTD) 2015 with an increase in value of 12.3% from 14.7bn, while at the same time seeing a drop in volume by 31 deals from 173 in YTD Declining commodities prices and a general regional slump have made for relatively attractive price tags for Central and South American businesses, particularly in Energy, Mining & Utilities (EMU). The sector captured 60.7% of regional market share, leading it to become the top sector for the region in April, surpassing by a staggering 355.9% the number two sector, Industrials & Chemicals, which saw three deals worth a total of 447m. EMU also claimed Central and South America s top deal, UK- and South Africabased Anglo American Plc s sale of its Niobium and Phosphate business in Brazil to China Molybdenum Co Ltd for 1.5bn, a transaction worth 244.8% more than the number two deal for the region, Australiabased Amcor Limited s 435m purchase of Chile-based Alusa SA. The former transaction is expected to aid China in diversifying its commodities portfolio, while strengthening its global position in the mining industry. At the same time, Anglo American, through this sale, is hoping to reduce its net debt, bringing it closer to a targeted level of 10bn by the end of the year. Cross-border deals comprised the majority of Central and South America s top 10 transactions, accounting for six. Most notable were two deals involving increasingly acquisitive China, the first being the aforementioned China Molybdenum/ Anglo American Niobium and Phosphate business transaction, and the second Hunan Dakang Pasture Farming Co Ltd s 409m purchase of a 57.57% stake in Brazil-based Fiagril Ltda, in the Agriculture sector. The latter transaction enables China to significantly increase its market share in the soybean business. Meanwhile, Brazil s festering corruption scandal has enveloped President Dilma Rousseff, with its Senate currently deliberating whether or not to remove her from office on charges of borrowing cash from the country s banks in order to mask budgetary gaps prior to her re-election, thus obscuring the true extent of Brazil s economic problems. Reduced investor confidence did not keep the country from leading the top deal rankings for the region, however, with Brazil still capturing four spots. With Central and South America facing not only declining M&A activity, relatively low commodities prices, and growing political instability, the region has become a hotbed of uncertainty, threatening its chances of seeing any kind of dealmaking rebound anytime soon. Top sector Energy, Mining & Utilities saw 4 deals worth 2.0bn, up 78.8% by value compared to 4 deals worth 1.1bn in April 15 Top Financial Adviser Morgan Stanley ranked first with 2 deals worth 2.1bn Top Legal Adviser Pinheiro Neto Advogados ranked first with 3 deals worth 1.7bn, compared to 2 deals worth 3.0m in April 15 21

29 Despite markets partially recovering from the turmoil experienced during the beginning of 2016, European M&A activity seems to have lost the resilience it showed during the first quarter. With 409 deals worth 41bn announced in April, deal value dropped by 70% in value compared to April 2015 (139bn, 509 deals), with 100 fewer deals. The clampdown on tax inversion deals by the US government will further result in a slowdown in activity within the continent, which had been an attractive destination for US investors. Key Stats 409 deals valued at 41.0bn, down 70.5% by value with 90 fewer deals compared to 509 deals worth 139.0bn in April 15 The slowdown in activity is reflected by the fact that there were no megadeals (>10bn) announced during the month, with the 3.9bn merger between Immofinanz AG and CA Immobilien Anlagen AG representing the highest valued transaction. As a result of this deal, Real Estate was the most active sector within Europe, with eight deals worth 7.7bn up 19.2% by value compared to April 2015 (1.4bn, 10 deals). This was followed by the Consumer sector (5.5bn, 61 deals) and Industrial and Chemicals (4.9bn, 92 deals). Inbound M&A activity amounted to 92 deals worth 16bn, an 11.5% decrease by value compared to the same period last year (97 deals, 47bn). The highest valued inbound transaction was the 2.9bn divestment of brewers Birra Peroni, Meantime Brewing Company and Royal Grolsh to Japan-based Asahi by SAB Miller, addressing antitrust concerns over the latter s acquisition by AB InBev NV. China has continued to pursue its outbound acquisition spree, with 66 deals worth 53.5bn accounting for 44.7% of total inbound M&A activity targeting Europe so far in This represents a 382% increase in deal value compared to April 2015 (20 deals, 11.1bn), which accounted for just 6.9% of European inbound activity. According to Mergermarket intelligence, this trend should continue into 2016 as Chinese companies seek to expand geographically by using their important cash reserves, obtained with the help of the government s quantitative easing program. Overall outbound deal value (53 deals, 7.7bn) fell by 32.2% compared to April 2015 (74 deals, 1.4bn). Consistent with 2015, the US and Canada were the most targeted countries by European bidders, with deal value targeting the two countries (250 deals, 58.9bn) representing 87% of total outbound activity to-date in M&A activity targeting the UK remains low, with dealmakers seemingly holding off large cap transactions until the outcome of the European referendum is announced in June. With 87 deals worth 3.5bn announced, April deal value dropped 96% compared to April 2015 (91bn, 107 deals), reaching its lowest deal value since 2009 (45 deals, 85m). Year-to-date M&A activity targeting Europe has seen 1,883 deals worth 220.6bn, the second lowest value recorded within the period after 2013 (208.1bn, 1,793 deals). This seems to confirm that 2016 is on its way to bear the rebalancing of an incredibly active 2015 in terms of M&A. However, with equity markets on their way to recovery from a rocky first quarter, European M&A activity may see a pick-up in activity in the coming months.

37 Dealmaking targeting the Africa and Middle East region slowed further in April, as low commodity prices and market risk continue to put a damper on potential M&A. With just 19 deals worth 1.3bn announced, deal value recorded its lowest April total since 2004 (431m, eight deals). The slump in activity can mainly be attributed to a lack of transactions in the Energy, Mining & Utilities (EMU) sector, which has failed to see a rebound in M&A activity following a slight rebound in the price of oil. To-date in 2016 there have been just eight deals worth 265m targeting the regions EMU sector, its lowest year-to-date (YTD) value on Mergermarket record (since 2001). Key Stats 19 deals valued at 1.3bn, down 48.0% by value with 15 fewer deals compared to 34 deals worth 2.5bn in April 15 Divestitures within the EMU sector look set to drive M&A activity within the short-term, as dealmakers grapple with ongoing volatility within the commodity markets. According to Mergermarket intelligence, Anglo America is likely to unbundle at least part of its majority stake in Kumba Iron Ore, with African Rainbow Minerals and Exxaro Resources cited as potential suitors. Furthermore, Royal Dutch Shell s sell-off of its onshore interests in Gabon s is expected to attract Chinese and Indian bidders. Despite the decline in traditionally active sectors such as EMU, the Technology sector attracted the highest number of deals in April, with three deals worth 490m recording its highest April value since 2012 (630m). Activity was bolstered by the largest deal of the month the sale of Israel-based SinteMedia to US private equity Francisco Partners valued at 400m. To-date in 2016 there have been 17 deals worth 2.2bn targeting the regions Technology sector, its highest year-to-date value and count on record, highlighting how the sector is fast becoming as hotspot in terms of M&A activity. Widespread currency volatility seems to have affected dealmakers confidence when acquiring assets abroad. To-date in 2016 companies within the region have engaged in 43 deals worth just 2.1bn, down 85.1% by value compared to the same period in 2015 (14.4bn, 49 deals), and the lowest YTD value since 2004 (eight deals, 1.0bn). Following the impressive acquisition spree seen in 2015, South African dealmakers have failed to maintain the momentum they gained during To-date, there have been nine outbound deals worth 328m recorded, the lowest YTD value since However, according to Mergermarket intelligence South Africa-based Steinhoff International Holdings is likely to continue seeking a deal in Europe after unsuccessful bids for Darty and Home Retail Group. DFS Furniture and Poundland Group could be potential targets for the South African retailer as it expands seeks to expand its presence in the European home-retail sector. Top sector Technology saw 3 deals worth 490m, up 9.6% by value compared to 2 deals worth 447m in April 15 Top Financial Adviser BNP Paribas ranked first with 1 deal worth 624m Top Legal Adviser Shearman & Sterling ranked first with 2 deals worth 624m, compared to 1 deal worth 1.1bn in April 15 37
