Defense Technology Services M&A Activity Running Strong
|
Seven months into 2007, the M&A market for
federal/defense technology service firms
remains brisk. While down modestly in total
transactions from the corresponding 2006
period, varied circumstances and trends drove
many to the deal table. Forty-seven deals
have been transacted through July 31 this
year v. 48 in 2007. Transactions were
completed by a wide breadth of acquirer-types.
