Value wise M&A Deal Break-up

2. Mergers & Acquisitions The total number of M&A Deals announced during the calendar year 2007 stands at 676 with a total announced value of $51.12 billion as against 480 deals with a total announced value of $20.30 billion in 2006. There were 321 domestic deals (both acquirer and target being Indian) with an announced value of $2.85 billion and 355 cross-border deals with an announced value of $48.26 billion. 243 of the cross border deals were outbound deals (Indian companies acquiring businesses outside India) with a value of $32.76 billion and 112 were inbound deals (international companies or their subsidiaries acquiring Indian businesses) with an announced value of close to $15.5 billion. The average M&A deal value was $75.61 Mn during 2007. The average value of cross-border deals (both inbound and outbound) was $136 Mn which was significantly higher when compared to average value of domestic deals which was close to $9 Mn. 2.1 Sectoral Spread of M&A Deals Historically, sectors like Automotive, IT, Pharma, Banking sectors etc. were the leading players in M&A. However 2007 saw significant participation by sectors such as Commodities (which primarily comprised Steel, Aluminium and Metals & Ores), Telecom, Power & Energy, Real Estate & Infrastructure. Steel and Telecom sectors were the clear leaders as far as sectoral values were concerned. These sectors accounted for $14.9 billion and $ 11.3 billion worth of deals respectively. Together, they accounted for as much as 51% of the total M&A deal value during 2007 and more

than the total announced value of M&A deals in 2006. Tata Steel’s acquisition of Corus for $ 12.2 billion and Vodafone’s majority stake in Hutchison Essar for $10.83 billion were the major deals in these sectors.

The other sectors which have significantly contributed to M&A deal value in 2007 are Aluminum and Power & Energy. IT & ITeS leads the M&A volume proportion with 23.5% share of total number of M&A deals. Pharma, Healthcare & Biotech have the second highest share at 9.47%.

Value wise PE Deal Break-up

During 2004-05, foreign private equity primarily foicussed on India’s IT and outsourcing story. However, currently the opportunities are wider and in multiple sectors.

The Real Estate & Infrastructure Management sector has witnessed continuous growth over the past two years. The number of investments in this sector has more than doubled in 2007 as compared to 2006. In terms of proportion of total PE investments, Real Estate and Infrastructure Management sector formed 6.3% in 2006 and 35.54% in 2007. The initiative taken by the Government of India towards liberalizing the regulations relating to foreign direct investment in construction and realty projects, and creation of more Special Economic Zones,

along with factors such as sustained high GDP, an upsurge in industrial activity and rapid urbanization have resulted in increased investment in the real estate sector – especially from international Private equity institutions.

3.2 Quarterly performance: PE investment in India witnessed an upward trend based on quarterly analysis. Oct – Dec quarter witnessed the largest share of PE investment in 2007 with 120 deals and an announced value of $7.29 billion. The value of investment in Jan – Mar quarter was comparatively lower at $2.98 billion and, even though the number of deals were as high as 112. 3.3 PE Investment trend 2005 – 2007: The year 2007 saw bigger investments than previous years. There were 6 deals

over $500Mn (3 of which were billion dollar deals) in 2007 compared to 1 in 2006 and none in 2005. The proportion of PE investments below $50 Mn was as high as 83% during 2005. This reduced to 71.5% in 2006 and further declined to 59.5% in 2007. Deals valued between $100Mn - $499.9Mn accounted for 11.6% of total PE investments in 2007 compared to 3.31% and 0.81% in 2006 and 2005.

In 2005 and 2006 majority of the PE investments was concentrated in IT & ITeS. In 2007 Technology companies were joined by Realty, Telecom, Banking & Financial services and Power & Energy sectors as favourite destination for PE investments. 4. Outlook for 2008 We had predicted 2007 to be a year of M&A juggernaut (and it proved to be one!) and we cannot say anything less about 2008 as we expect it to be a year of continuum. The trend in 2007 of increasing M&A activity will be sustained with a continued focus on cross border deals. We are seeing India Inc plunge in with continued vigour into cross border M&A with a series of acquisitions ranging from less than $1 Mn to $13 billion, across a wide range of sectors as diverse as

hotels, racing teams, steel mills, textiles, metals, entertainment etc The new and heightened deal activity is a sign of M&A becoming a key element of strategy for India Inc. There is strong growth in cross border deals, as India Inc is going with gusto across the world buying up companies. This is different from the state led acquisitions that China Inc is doing where the deals are big, strategic for China and comes with a significant element of push and support from the Government. India Inc is going about international acquisitions on its own steam. Increasing corporate capex,

Page 6: Annual Deal Tracker - Third Annual Issue 2007

investment in public infrastructure and fiscal stimuli will provide the impetus to further drive the M&A engine for India Inc. The attractive profit margins of Indian Corporates will only attract more private equity and the “India Shining” story is expected to continue. We expect PE houses to focus more on sectors such as Real Estate and Infrastructure Management, Retail, Aviation, Telecom and NBFCs. The juggernaut is expected to roll on in 2008… ABOUT GRANT THORNTON Grant Thornton India is the Indian member firm of Grant Thornton International, the fifth largest accountancy firm network in the world, with over 600 offices in over 110 countries and employing more than 22,000 people.
