Last week, Axial convened a virtual roundtable of members to review the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on lower middle market business owners, M&A activity, and dealmaking. We assembled specialist and generalist investment bankers, corporate buyers and private equity investors (eight in total) to cut across the LMM and understand reactions to the chaos of the past few weeks. What are PE buyers and sell-side bankers doing when it comes to deals under LOI? Are strategic buyers pausing M&A to handle operations? How is the virus impacting industries from healthcare to manufacturing to restaurants to e-commerce and more?
Here are the Axial member attendees. Thank you to each of them for joining on almost no notice and for sharing freely what they’re seeing and experiencing on the ground.Â
