Healthcare M&A Spending Spiked in Q1:2019

Healthcare M&A Spending Spiked in Q1:2019

Spending in the first quarter, totaling $149 billion, beat both the previous quarter (up 239%) and the year-ago time period (up 31%). Three deals had a combined total of $113 billion, accounting for 76% of that spending. Without those three, the first quarter would have ended with approximately $36 billion, which would be 18% lower than the fourth quarter of 2018 ($44 billion) and 68%  lower than the first quarter in 2018 ($113 billion).

Bristol-Myers Squibb’s (NYSE: BMY) $74 billion acquisition of Celgene Corp. (NASDAQ: CELG) made up 81% of the month’s total. Suffice it to say we won’t see many (or any) more months like this. The Hospital sector made a strong contribution, nearly $6 billion. The biggest deal wasn’t a domestic one, however. Australia’s second largest private hospital network, Healthscope Ltd. (ASX: HSO), was acquired by Brookfield Business Partners LP (NYSE: BBU) for approximately $4.1 billion. Two REITs are... Read More »
