2 PE Quarterly Roundup 3Q2018

3 Key Trends Half Yearly Investments On a YoY basis, quarterly PE/VC investments in 3Q2018 declined 23% in value terms compared to 3Q2017 (US$ 6.7 billion vs US$ 8.7 billion in 3Q2017) despite a 29% increase in the number of deals over the same period (178 deals vs 138 deals in 3Q2017). On a sequential basis, the quarterly decline in value of investments was 11% and 16% compared to 2Q2018 and 1Q2018 respectively. The decline in investments was mainly on account of fewer large deals (deals with value greater than US$100 million) in 3Q Q2018 recorded 13 large deals aggregating US$3.9 billion compared to 18 such deals in 3Q2017 aggregating US$7 billion. 2Q2018 recorded 25 large deals aggregating US$6.1 billion, while 1Q2018 recorded 13 large deals aggregating US$5.7 billion. Steady flow of large deals had helped each of the last four quarters record investments in excess of US$7 billion. Though the trend has been broken in 3Q2018, there were couple of large deals in the works in 3Q2018 that if concluded can add significantly to the overall investment tally for These include, TPG s and ADIA s US$1.2 billion funding of UPL for its overseas acquisition of Arystra and Westbridge, Madison and Rakesh Jhunjunwala s US$1 billion investment in Star Health and Allied Insurance. The largest deals in 3Q2018 include Softbank, Sequoia, Lightspeed and others investing US$1 billion in OYO Rooms, KKR s US$ 530 million buyout of Ramky Enviro and AIONJSW s US$400 million buyout of Monnet Ispat. From the point of view of type of investment, Growth and PIPE deals recorded significant fall in investments. 3Q2018 recorded US$2.6 billion in growth deals (US$5.7 billion in 3Q2017 and US$3.5 billion in 2Q2018) and US$57 million in PIPE deals (US$599 million in 3Q2017 and US$690 million in 2Q2018). On the other hand, 3Q2018 was the best quarter for startup investments, with deals worth US$2.1 billion, being the best quarter for startup investments since 2Q2015 (US$1.7 billion). Buyouts also recorded healthy growth in 3Q2018 with US$1.3 billion invested across 9 deals compared to US$920 million across 6 deals in 3Q2017. This takes the total value of buyouts in 2018 till date to US$6.3 billion (32 deals), surpassing the previous record set in 2015 of US$3.9 billion across 29 deals. Page 3

4 Key Trends Half Yearly Investments (cont d.) From a sector point of view, most of the top sectors for PE/VC investments recorded noticeable declines in 3Q2018. Ecommerce, Real Estate, Financial Services, and Healthcare, which are some of the sectors that traditionally receive maximum PE/VC investments, recorded quarterly investment declines in excess of 50% on a YoY basis. Power & Utilities, Logistics and Technology were the few sectors to show improvement in 3Q investments compared to last year, albeit with very few deals Page 4

5 Key Trends Half Yearly Exits If we exclude the Flipkart deal, at US$1.3 billion PE/VC Exits declined by 71% on a YoY basis in 3Q2018, making it the worst performing quarter in 2018 for exits. The decline in exits in 3Q2018 was across most types both in terms of value and volume. Though exits via strategic sale were the highest ever at US$16.1 billion (16 deals), it was mainly on account of the single large US$16 billion Walmart Flipkart deal. Exits via secondary sale (sale to other PE funds) recorded US$390 million (7 deals), 73% lower compared to 3Q2017 in terms of value. Volatility in the markets continued to impact open market deal activity as well as PE backed IPOs. 3Q2018 recorded just 14 deals worth US$647 million compared to 32 deals worth US$1.5 billion in 3Q2017, US$1 billion in 2Q2018 and US$890 million in 1Q2018. IPO market also recorded muted performance with just two PE backed IPOs in 3Q2018 (7 in 3Q2017) which include TA Associates selling its 11% stake in TCNS Clothing for US$72 million, and Micro Ventures selling its stake in Credit Access Grameen Limited for US$72 million. From a sector perspective, Ecommerce recorded highest value of exits in 3Q2018 (US$16 billion across 3 deals) mainly on account of the large US$16 billion deal followed by Financial Services (US$491 million across 7 deals). The largest exit in 3Q2018 was also the largest exit ever for the Indian PE/VC industry which saw Softbank, Tiger Global, Accel and others selling around 77% stake in Flipkart to Walmart for US$16 billion. Fund Raise 3Q2018 saw US$2.6 billion in fund raises, 17% higher compared to 3Q2017 and the highest quarterly fund raise ever. Sequoia s US$695 million sixth fund and True North s US$ 600 million sixth fund were the largest fund raises in 3Q2018. New fund raise plans announced in 3Q2018 stood at US$4.3 billion. Page 5

32 Delivering issuesbased solutions to the entire PE enterprise Solutions EY has established six distinct solutions reflecting the holistic set of challenges that PE firms face across all levels of the organization the management company, the funds, and their portfolio companies. A B Operating model and automation Global compliance and reporting Deal origination Integrated due diligence Value creation Exit readiness and IPO Alternative asset managers need to drive efficiency through multiyear target operating models and infrastructure strategies to remain competitive. These align with strategic growth plans by leveraging vendor and service provider activities. EY defines and monitors data analytics and key performance indicators to annually assess data governance and risk against these target models. Large asset managers have hundreds of nonus legal entities in multiple countries, and continually create new ones all with different compliance obligations. Many are outsourced and require local knowledge. EY gathers the data, leverages local EY teams familiar with accounting and tax laws, performs data analytics to identify trends, risks and opportunities and monitors filing requirements. The intense competition for a limited number of deals raises stakes to win for private equity firms. A proprietary investment approach, driven by sector insights, enables firms to confidently place winning bids that generate appropriate returns. EY s global origination team turns opportunities into actionable strategies. Our proprietary knowledge and advanced analytics help develop strategic capital options to help firms achieve success. Private equity firms conduct diligence on assets across strategic, financial, tax, operational and HR issues. Firms historically used issuebased advisors, managing different parties and consolidating findings at the end of the process. Employing EY s integrated diligence approach at the early stages of a transaction provides more effective, comprehensive diligence on an asset, giving firms a distinct competitive advantage. Privateequity firms face increasing pressure to attract fresh capital. This requires generating greater investment returns and demonstrating a consistent track record in creating value in their portfolio. EY s value creation solution addresses these challenges across all five stages of the deal life cycle, including deal origination, diligence, inception, optimization and exit strategy. Private equity firms must plan exits rigorously in order to successfully monetize their investment during the exit process in today s challenging environment. Executives must identify key shortand longterm priorities prior to undertaking an IPO or alternative transaction. EY can advise deal teams and portfolio companies on exit alternatives, assess exit readiness, prepare a business for exit/ipo and create a value story for targeted buyers. Page 32

IPO readiness The first step in the IPO value journey EY s IPO readiness service is the first step in what we describe as the IPO value journey and is designed to guide the client through a successful transformation from private to public status. Achieving readiness will ensure a strong debut in the capital markets. Getting IPO readiness right means implementing change throughout the business, organization and the corporate culture. As a public company, the client will be subject to increased filing requirements, transparency, compliance, scrutiny by investors and analysts, and overall accountability for delivering on promises.
