Healthcare Deal Volume Got a Jump Start in January

Healthcare Deal Volume Got a Jump Start in January

by | Feb 7, 2019 3:17 pm | Healthcare Market Updates

January was a fairly busy month for healthcare M&A. Preliminary data shows 133 deals reported, nearly equal to December’s 136. The momentum coming out of the fourth quarter spilled into the new year and even without a big boost in deal announcements from the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, consolidation in the industry seems to be going full steam ahead. And yet. Compared with the 151 deals announced a year ago, M&A is off by 12%. Granted, we don’t see that many deals on a monthly basis, which makes for a hard comp here. But as we swing into February, deal flow has slowed noticably. It could be temporary, as investors take stock of the economic and political landscape and... Read More »

Q4:18 Health Care Dollar Volume Was Just … Robust

Q4:18 Health Care Dollar Volume Was Just … Robust

by | Jan 11, 2019 2:09 pm | Healthcare Market Updates

Deal volume has climbed higher every year since 2012. Spending on those deals hasn’t been as predictable, which is why we watch deal volume more closely. But dollar signs attract attention, so here is where the preliminary results point. Combined spending in 2018 now stands at $330.3 billion and may rise slightly higher as we uncover more prices. The total is 21% higher than 2017’s $311.6 billion, but doesn’t come close to the $387.7 billion spent in 2014. That was the year Actavis plc (now NYSE: AGN) paid $66 billion for Allergan plc; Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT) paid $42.9 billion for Covidien; and Actavis (then NYSE: ACT) acquired Forrest Laboratories for $25.0 billion. That year saw... Read More »
