ComCap Digital Retail Rreport April 2018Peter Creech
ComCap is a unique boutique investment bank focused on the intersection between Commerce and Capital. Based in San Francisco, CA, we are the only investment bank that focuses on the massive disruption occurring in digital retail. Our areas of focus include direct to consumer (B2C websites, marketplaces, vertical commerce), B2B SaaS software, B2B professional services, and consumer-oriented fintech.
Here at Results we cover all aspects of technology with a particular focus on enterprise software / SaaS, software-related IT services, and tech enabled services. However we like to turn our attention to a number of specific sectors at the end of every quarter to consider the trends and analyse the activity in the M&A, fundraising and public markets.
We have produced our view on the previous quarter’s proceedings in a series of individual market reviews on; SaaS, HealthTech, Cybersecurity and AdTech & MarTech.
The global economic slowdown and financial market volatility has had an impact on public markets for SaaS, HealthTech, Cybersecurity, Adtech & MarTech with our Results indices all dropping from the previous quarter. Nevertheless the indices for SaaS and Cybersecurity for the year remain up, both outperforming the broader Nasdaq Composite Index.
The private markets in AdTech & MarTech and HealthTech have seen a record number of M&A transactions over the past quarter while fundraising appetite and valuation remain healthy across all four market sectors.
Companies displaying strong top-line growth with quality clients and an innovative products, within each of their sectors, continue to outperform their peers on the public markets.
We hope you enjoy the document, and please do get in touch if you would like to discuss any of the themes with us. We look forward to speaking with you soon.

The HealthTech and AdTech & MarTech M&A markets have seen a slight decline from the previous quarter, however both remain at historically high levels as private investors invest in innovation and product differentiation.

Cherry Tree's IT Services Newsletter March 2016Elmer Baldwin
Cherry Tree & Associates' newsletter tracking and summarizing the IT services market for Q1 2016. Cherry Tree & Associates is a private investment banking firm headquartered in Minneapolis.
2014 was an interesting year for the SaaS segment. In the public markets, a correction earlier in the year could not be wholly offset by a welcome Q4 rally (the Results International Global SaaS Index tracked up 8% in the last 3 months but nonetheless ended the year 3% down over the 12 month period; with the small cap group down by 30%).
Median valuations in the space rose along with share prices during Q4 with the segment ending the year trading at 6.5x revenue. Meanwhile, investor appetite for growing SaaS businesses in Europe and North America remains very strong and the M&A environment is favourable for those companies offering differentiated products with a strong recurring revenue base.
