    PRIVATE EQUITY Newsletter QUARTERLY SPECIAL | EDITION 2/2017 CLOSED DEALS in H1 2017 within the German-speaking region NEW DEAL FLOW January - June 2017 in German-speaking region MOST RECENT STUDIES by Roland Berger Private Equity Newsletter Quarterly Special | Edition 2/2017 Dear Friends, dear Clients, Dr. Sascha Haghani We hope that 2017 continues to be successful for you with your current and upcoming deals. Roland Berger’s Investor Support Practice has had the opportunity to support many of you and your teams on numerous attractive transactions and we are looking forward to doing so also in the second half of the year. Christof Huth PE-related deal activity in H1 2017 has been good, amounting to 94 closed deals in the Ger- man-speaking region (up from 53 deals in H1 2016). Also deal flow has been strong, especially in Q1 2017; market participants widely expect this strong deal activity to continue into the second half of the year with an above-average deal flow over the summer months. Deal activity is driven by a combi- nation of favorable financing, a robust economy, and ample dry powder. From an industry perspective, consumer goods and engineered products had the highest deal activity in H1 2017 with 22% and 21% share of the overall deal flow, respectively. This is followed by Sven Kleindienst IT/Telecoms (13% of deal flow), healthcare (12%) and automotive (12%). Activity in automotive al- most doubled compared to the same period last year, driven amongst others also by the sale of Euro- pean carbon-related assets. In terms of target size, smaller mid-cap deals accounted for the majority of closed deals, but with a stable share of large-cap transactions.

The strategies and aims of private equity firms are explained in the context of the financial landscape that has allowed them to flourish; their aggressive expansion into media ownership is outlined in detail. Particular attention is paid to the public interest concerns raised by private equity media ownership relating to the frenzied nature of the buyout market, profit maximization strategies, and the heavy debt burdens imposed on acquired firms. The article concludes with discussion of the challenges posed by private equity to effective media regulation and comparison of private equity and corporate media ownership models. The media sector in the United States is deeply and historically rooted in the capitalist system of private ownership. The structures and demands of private ownership foundationally influence the management and operation of media firms, which must necessarily serve the ultimate end of profitability within such a system.
