Global Disruptions & The Impact on A&D M&A

  • Tuesday, November 12, 2024:9:05 AM - 9:45 AM

Description

Geopolitical tensions can lead to increases in defense budgets and priorities that will influence the valuation and attractiveness of A&D companies. Any major global disruptions can lead to a tighter credit market and reduced capital availability that will hinder deal-making activities. Meanwhile, other factors can disrupt supply chains, reduce production capacity and delay project deliveries.

Despite these challenges, disruptions can also present opportunities for strategic acquisitions. Companies with strong financial positions may leverage downturns to acquire valuable assets at lower valuations, while others might seek partnerships or mergers to strengthen their resilience against future shocks.

Overall, the impact of global disruptions on A&D M&A is multifaceted, affecting deal volume, structure, and valuation, with both risks and opportunities emerging in response to the changing landscape. Strategic planning and adaptability are crucial for navigating these complexities. Join us for an impactful  talk on what another possible global disruption could bring and the impact on A&D M&A.
