Recently, the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA) and M&A Source released its survey report<\/span>. This survey features feedback from an impressive 301 brokerage professionals across 44 states with 266 transactions taking place in the quarter. The report had numerous key findings that will be of interest to those looking to buy or sell a business.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Emergence of Covid-Proof Businesses\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

One key fact of interest is that a full 25% of businesses are still operating below capacity due to the pandemic\u2019s enduring impact. The Market Pulse survey concluded that a quarter of all small and medium sized businesses are either in a position where they are temporarily closed or are operating below capacity. On the other side of the equation, the survey noted that 29% of businesses have either emerged as \u201cCovid proof\u201d or have actually benefited from the pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For sellers with Covid resistant businesses, now could be an excellent time to sell. For buyers, there are potential deals to be had, especially for those who are willing to look beyond the current pandemic fueled environment and towards the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why are Sellers Selling?<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The report also noted that burnout is a major factor impacting deal activity. Retirement continues to be the leading reason why businesses are selling, but burnout has become a quickly rising secondary reason.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The top five reasons that sellers are putting their business on the market are: retirement (35%), burnout (27%), health (15%), tax increases (7%) and general Covid fatigue (7%). The pandemic is still likely playing a role in the minds of many business owners who are looking to sell, which means that buyers could find good deals due to the pandemic. It is important for buyers to note that as pandemic conditions improve, many of today\u2019s good deals will likely vanish.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the IBBA and M&A Source Market Pulse report noted that over the last year it took longer for deals to close in most sections, there were exceptions to that rule. For example, in the $5 million to $50 million sector, there has actually been an acceleration. On average, deals in that range are taking a mere ten months to close.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Top Buyers in 5 Sectors\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Sellers will be pleased to hear that the report concludes that buyers are indeed active, noting that personal services were trending. In the lower middle market, it was manufacturing and construction\/engineering that dominated industry transactions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The top buyers in the $1MM to $2MM range, entrepreneurs (29%) lead the way. For the $2MM to $5MM range, it was first-time buyers (36%) and serial entrepreneurs (28%) who led the way. For the $5MM to $50MM range, PE firms seeking a platform deal (33%) were the most represented group of buyers. It is interesting to note that with the exception of the $5MM to $50MM range, first-time buyers topped the list.<\/span><\/p>\n

Buyers and sellers will be pleased to learn that the IBBA and M&A Source Market Pulse report clearly outlines just how much the climate has changed from 2020 to 2021. Today\u2019s market conditions are different than they were a year ago. If you\u2019re looking to purchase a business, you can still find great deals. Those looking to sell should find increased interest from an array of buyers. Call one of our M&A Advisors for further details.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
