Notable Highlights
This quarters slowdown has been most pronounced in Europe, where total deal activity decreased from $190.6 billion in Q3 2011 to $170 billion. Acquisitions of
European targets accounted for about 21% of global deal volume, the continents lowest share since 2010.
In spite of the fact that acquisitions of targets located in the Americas represented 51% of global activity, this has also been the slowest third quarter for the region
since 2009, with $307 billion in aggregate deal volume.

Notable Highlights
About 97% of all M&A transactions occurred in the mid-market range (below $500 million in size) while only 1 deal soared into the mega-deal category (more than
$10 billion in size), which is significantly less than the 6 announced in the same period last year.
Cash was the dominant form of payment, accounting for 82.4% of M&A volume this quarter, while 7.7% percent of all volume was comprised of all-stock payments,
a drop of more than 30% compared to the 3rd quarter of 2011. For public deals, median total value to EBITDA multiples decreased by 30.3% from 2011.
