Between 2015 and 2018, the total number of transactions increased by a CAGR of 6.6% &#8211; from 311 transactions in 2015 to 377 in 2018, with the high-growth Software and IT Services segments as the noteworthy leaders.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Key insights:<\/strong><\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Market consolidation is ramping up in the Nordics, supported by deal demand from both listed companies and increasingly PE, who accounted for 29% of all recorded transactions in 2018 &#8211; an increase of c. 43% compared to 2017. Mature Software companies are popular targets for PE.<\/li>\n<li>There were some headline deals in 2018, including major M&amp;A exits from leading Software and IT consulting players: KMD from Denmark was sold to NEC (EUR1.1bn); iZettle from Sweden to PayPal (EUR1.9bn); and TDC from Denmark to a consortium that included Macquarie, PFA, PKA and ATP (EUR8.4bn).<\/li>\n<li>In terms of geography, deal activity is most concentrated in Sweden, where transaction volumes continue to grow and where a large number of TMT businesses are based. Swedish acquirers are also the most active in the Nordics region, followed by international acquirers from the US and the UK.<\/li>\n<li>Valuations are typically high in the TMT space, but depend on the segment: ranging between 7x (for Telecom) and 16x (for Software) EV\/EBITDA for listed players.<\/li>\n<li>There are some significant new serial acquirers: 23 strategic buyers have made at least 5 acquisitions in the region since 2015. These larger groups are using acquisitions to reach new customers and to consolidate what is a fragmented market in Europe.<\/li>\n<li>The sector is undergoing fast-cycle evolution and change, which has made M&amp;A an important repositioning tool. Scale is another important catalyst for deals, as is the attractive growth story in Nordics TMT (esp. Software).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To see the preview document <a href=\"https:\/\/capitalmind.docsend.com\/view\/ts6fsu9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>click
