Although 1H 2022 Canadian M&A activity has declined moderately in both transaction count and total implied enterprise value (EV) compared to a record-breaking 1H 2021, deal count remains substantially higher than 1H 2020.
Due to general economic uncertainty in the market, a slowdown in transactions was expected as companies continue to navigate through these headwinds. In 1H 2022, there were 925 Canadian companies sold with the total disclosed EV of these transactions amounting to CA$44.1 billion, marking a 29% decrease compared to 1H 2021.
