In light of the recent global and regional developments on the mergers & acquisitions (M&A) market, we are pleased to present to you our latest report on the M&A market in the Czech Republic in 2006. We have been reviewing private sector deals in the Czech Republic for ten years and, since 2003, have included a review of privatisations (or public sector deals) in our analysis.
PricewaterhouseCoopers tracked publicly disclosed, private-sector transactions in 11 countries of the region: Bulgaria; Croatia; Czech Republic; Hungary; Poland; Romania; Russia; Slovakia; Slovenia; Ukraine; and, for the first time, Serbia.
Robust growth in the region means that the M&A market value last year almost doubled that seen in 2005 and more than tripled the aggregate value of M&A recorded in 2004. In 2006, the number of transactions on the Czech market grew by 11% to 269 publicly disclosed transactions. The aggregate value of transactions with publicly disclosed purchase price grew as well – from USD 5.9 billion in 2005 to USD 6.2 billion in 2006.
