QUARTERLY SOFTWARE SECTOR REVIEW │ 3Q 2015
THE PAYMENTS WORLD REALLY WANTS TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE (OCTOBER 11, 2015)
Point of sale payments technology has changed quite a bit since the 1960s, and although PINs still play an important role in securing many transactions, recent advances in payment technology provide us with the convenience of paying with our phones and watches, our credit and debit cards contain embedded microchips that will essentially wipe out counterfeit fraud and we can now initiate, verify and secure a payment with the swipe of a finger. However, as cyber-criminals become increasingly more sophisticated given recent well-publicized data breaches, more secure payments technologies that utilize multi-factor identification methods, like biometrics and social data mining, are becoming the future of payments.

TECH IPOS SHOW WEAKNESS, BUT M&A CHARGES AHEAD (SEPTEMBER 11, 2015)
Despite the weakening IPO picture, M&A in the technology sector continues to surge. In particular, middle market technology companies are watching their valuations soar amid a wave of deals. Notable 3Q 2015 technology deals include Fidelity National Information Services‘ $9.1 billion (including debt) pending acquisition for financial software company SunGard, Infor’s $675 million acquisition of supply chain management firm GT Nexus, and Advance Publication’s $500 million acquisition of big-data software provider 1010data. The spike in technology acquisitions coupled with large amounts of private equity dry powder is driving the percentage of total IPO filings by technology companies to a seven year low.

PE FIRMS SEE MOST TECH EXITS EVER VIA M&A (SEPTEMBER 25, 2015)
In one of the hottest M&A markets, cash-flush strategic buyers are aggressively acquiring assets while private equity has largely stayed on the sidelines, at least as buyers. Consequently, private equity has been focused on exiting their portfolio companies, especially their technology investments. Through year-to-date 2015, private equity firms sold over 100 technology companies with a combined valuation of $52.7 billion, the highest on record according to Dealogic. Of the $52.7 billion, U.S. based technology companies accounted for 88%, or $46.2 billion, of the aggregate volume, which is also the highest volume on record. This surge in M&A comes at a time when technology firms have essentially eschewed the public markets as evidenced by just 14% of all U.S. IPOs this year have come from technology companies – the lowest portion on record.
The Wall Street Journal
BIG DATA ANALYTICS, DIGITAL HEALTH M&A MAY PROFIT HEALTH SYSTEMS (SEPTEMBER 16, 2015)
According to a recent study by Accenture, healthcare systems that proactively acquire or invest in digital health service providers in addition to their traditional merger and acquisition targets are more likely to create profitable, diversified portfolios of complementary holdings. Over the past six years, investors have spent approximately $15.4 billion on 2,349 venture deals as demand for healthcare big data analytics software and services rises rapidly in the provider community. Startups and digital health services companies that offer big data analytics, population health management, practice management, and patient engagement solutions are prime investment opportunities for health systems that see the benefit in managing as many operational development activities as possible under their own corporate umbrella.

THE NEW CYBER KILL CHAIN (SEPTEMBER 27, 2015)
The cloud has significantly changed, and shortened, the cyber kill chain. It’s now easier than ever for a hacker to access the entire contact list of a single person, the organization they belong to, or even the entire supply/value chain of the organization. With smaller degrees of separation between people and organizations, and the surge of Internet of Things, taking down entire supply chains of organizations has never been easier, thus driving a new era for cybersecurity. Industry analysts believe the pace and innovation of cybersecurity needs to increase along with it and should be an integral part of organizational strategy, embedded into core workflows an investment decisions.

INFRASTRUCTURE SOFTWARE – M&A MARKET SUMMARY
INFRASTRUCTURE SOFTWARE M&A VOLUME (GLOBAL)
In 3Q 2015, Infrastructure Software M&A activity slowed to a four-year low with only 34 transactions registered in the quarter.
Median reported Infrastructure Software M&A revenue multiples decreased slightly in 3Q 2015, however, still remain in line with historical averages.
As cybersecurity becomes a more prevalent focus for enterprises, large infrastructure software buyers are increasingly turning to M&A to bolster their existing security solutions.
Notable cybersecurity transactions include Barracuda’s pending acquisition of Intronis, Carlyle Group’s pending acquisition of Novetta, CA’s acquisition of Xceedium, and EMC’s acquisition of Virtustream.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT CAPITAL RAISED BY ROUND (AS PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL REPORTED PRIVATE PLACEMENT CAPITAL)
The software sector continued to exhibit strong momentum in 3Q 2015 with private placement deal activity increasing 4% quarter over quarter and total reported capital raised reaching in excess of $11.0 billion for the fourth consecutive quarter.
PRIVATE PLACEMENT ACTIVITY BY SOFTWARE SECTOR
In 3Q 2015, 55% of private capital raised was deployed in late stage rounds (Series C / or later), up from 41% in the prior quarter.
The surge in late stage investment activity suggests a maturing start-up landscape with fewer early stage companies seeking initial rounds of funding.

SUMMARY OF TECHNOLOGY IPOS
After a busy 2Q 2015, technology IPO activity came to a near halt in 3Q 2015, with only 3 IPOs priced during the quarter.
SunGard, which had been running a dual track process, filed on June 4 for an IPO that could have raised $750 million, but later SunGard withdrew its IPO plans when it announced that it would be acquired by Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) for $9.1 billion (including debt) in August.
Over the past 12 months, nearly 50% of technology IPOs comprised of companies generating in excess of 75% annual revenue growth leading up to their IPOs.
