CDT Roundup: 19 Deals, 13 Firms, 118 Lawyers, $8.5B

June 13, 2023 Claire Poole

M&A dealmaking worldwide has slowed dramatically, coming in at $1.07 trillion through May, a 42 percent drop from the same time last year, according to Refinitv. The number of deals also slid by 14 percent to 21,301.

Maybe not so much for Texas lawyers.

Doing a quick tally of The Texas Lawbook‘s Corporate Deal Tracker, they reported involvement in 227 M&A transactions worth $142 billion in the first 21 weeks of 2023 versus 226 deals valued at $91.6 billion for the same period last year, an increase on a value basis of 55 percent.

Capital markets deals were also brisk, with Texas lawyers working on 96 transactions with a value of $58.2 billion compared with only 51 worth $28.4 billion.

So, what’s happening here?

First, the U.S. market has seen a sharp rise on the value side of M&A in recent months, despite a decline in overall M&A activity, according to FactSet.

While April saw the lowest number of M&A transactions in the past 16 months (1,029), it also saw the highest aggregate value of those transactions ($290.2 billion).

For the three months ending in April, the number of M&A deals dropped year-over-year by 1,395, from 4,867 over the same period in 2022 to 3,472 in 2023. Likewise, deal value dropped, but only slightly — from $556.2 billion in 2022 to $541.8 billion in 2023.

But looking closer at recent months, the value of deals rose dramatically, from $116.5 billion in February 2023 to that $290.2 billion 16-month high. In fact, January 2023 saw the highest number of deals for any month this year with 1,476 transactions, but registered only $62.3 billion in aggregate value. In other words, April saw a 30 percent decline in deals over January, but a 360 percent increase in aggregate value.

If that’s a trend it’s likely to gain more clarity in Texas with the end of H1 in June. And any differences in the Texas market can often be explained by several factors: better and wider reporting of deals by Texas lawyers (thank you, readers); greater reporting of fundings and fund raisings (which we have been counting with M&A) and the increased diversity of the Texas market.

Moreover, in a leaner more complicated market, CapM has seized a broader role — even in merger transactions — in the form of more creative deals, along with the usual recaps, securitizations, buy-backs and SPAC exit deals.

But there might be something else going on, one that is more difficult to quantify, one that attracts the likes of London-based firm Allen & Overy to seek out a merger partner like Shearman & Sterling and its three busy Texas outposts. Or another Magic Circle firm, Clifford Chance, wanting to open a Houston office – its first in the Lone Star State – and luring lawyers from Kirkland & Ellis, Jones Day, Latham & Watkins and Vinson & Elkins to join its ranks.

FactSet stats suggest that no business sector benefitted from the dramatic increase in deal value more than technology services. Although tech services deals declined year-over-year for the three months ending in April (from 916 in 2022 to 641 in 2023), the aggregate value of those deals more than doubled (from $114.6 billion in 2022 to $230.7 billion in 2023).

Perhaps, then, it is not a coincidence that the largest Texas-related deal in this week’s Roundup is a de-SPAC merger between Dallas-based Beneficient and Avalon Acquisition, a deal that values the combination at $3.5 billion. And despite what is happening in the rest of the country or around the world, for better or for worse, Texas is open for business

The week ending June 10 saw 19 transactions valued at $8.5 billion — 16 M&A/Funding deals for $6.3 billion and three CapM offerings of $2.3 billion. Compare that to the 12 deals for $6.1 billion last week, and the 17 deals for $11.9 billion this time last year.

Not bad in either case.
