Q2 2012 global M&A at US$ 494.9bn, bucks trend o ve consecutive quar-
terly declines
H1 2012 total o US$ 929.4bn, down 21.6% on H1 2011
Cliord Chance claims top spot in H1 2012 global legal advisers league
table by deal value
The reeall in global M&A was temporarily halted in Q2 2012. Registering US$ 494.9bn in
deals, Q2 2012 was up 13.9% on Q1 2012 (US$ 434.6bn), reversing a seemingly terminal
decline that had seen ve previous quarters o consecutive alls in the global total.
The H1 2012 total o US$ 929.4bn, however, was a decline o 21.6% on H1 2011 (US$
1,185.1bn). The lower rst hal gure was also the third-lowest rst hal total since H1
2004 (US$ 826bn). Q2 2012s total matched this; the third-lowest quarterly total since Q2
2010 (US$ 428.6bn). On current orm, ull year 2012 is set to be the second-lowest yearly
total since 2004 (US$ 1,685.4bn).
Europe, plagued by the continuing uncertainty surrounding its debt crisis, managed tomatch all other regions in posting a quarter-on-quarter increase. Q2 2012 M&A on the
continent totalled US$ 183.7bn, up 6.6% on Q1 2012 (US$ 172.4bn). This also ensured thatEurope made up the largest share o global M&A o any region; it accounted or 38.3% o
total deal value in the rst hal o 2012.
The US, although posting a quarter-on-quarter increase o 27.9%, registered the worst
hal-year perormance drop, with H1 2012 M&A coming in at US$ 258.7bn, down 40.1%
on the rst hal o last year (US$ 431.5bn). Japanese M&A, meanwhile, looked robust. It
registered increases across all comparisons; M&A was up 40% in Q2 2012 compared to
Q2 2011, up 101.4% in Q2 2012 compared to the previous quarter and up 28% in H1 2012
compared to H1 2011.
Asia-Pacic (ex Japan) reversed two consecutive quarterly declines, with a Q2 2012
total o US$ 71.1bn up 3% on Q1 2012 (US$ 68.3bn). The H1 2012 gure o US$ 140.1bn,
though, was a 15.1% decline on H1 2011 (US$ 165bn).
Cliord Chance claimed the H1 2012 global legal advisers mantle, by deal value, ater
climbing 16 places rom its H1 2011 nish. Jones Day won the day by claiming top spot
or the deal volume crown.

Global buyouts in H1 2012 total US$ 113.8bn, down by over a th on H1
2011
Global total reverses quarterly slide but Asia-Pacic witnesses third quar-
terly decline on the trot
Global private equity buyouts or H1 2012, valued at US$ 113.8bn, accounted or 12.2%
o total M&A activity in H1 2012 (US$ 929.4bn) and was down 22.4% on the same period
in 2011 (US$ 146.7bn). A total o 900 buyouts exceeded the 634 exits in H1 2012, though,
which appears to conrm reports o investors holding onto their assets due to market
volatility, in particular within the euro zone.
Asia-Pacic (ex Japan) saw its Q2 2012 buyouts total just US$ 3.9bn, the lowest quarterly
gure since Q2 2010 (US$ 2.7bn) and the third consecutive quarter o decline rom Q3
2011.
Average buyout leverage ratio or H1 2012 was 58.2% which is up rom the 55.5% seen
or the whole o 2011. This was the third-highest level since 2007s high o 67.6%. Debt
nancing-to-EBITDA in the rst hal o 2012 was 5.3x, the second-lowest level in eightyears (2009s 5.1x being the lowest).

than the USs 9.4x. Exit premiums continued to be the highest in the US at 63.7% where-
as Europe went the other way, alling to 13.1% rom a 2011 gure o 30%.
The USs exit premiums or H1 2012 were at their second-highest level stretching back to
