Healthcare Notes & Contacts Summary North American M&A has been a big deal. Larger mergers are being struck while the number of acquisitions has not risen since last year. In terms of classification, the top deal lists and league tables include North American companies if they are either the bidder, seller or target; however, the data used in the total volume and value charts includes a North American business only when it is the target. Buyers bought North American targets with a combined value about 30% higher than the first half of last year. At $531bn, it is on pace to hit $1tn. North American mergers have not passed that milestone since 2000 when they totaled close to $1.7tn. The story is not what is at the top of the charts as there were three $20bn plus deals in each the first half of this year, and last year. It is the deals that are just below that range. There were eight 2005 deals with values between $10bn and $20bn. In the year-earlier period, there were two.
