European Private Equity Buyout Market Activity in Q1 2017
European Buyout-PE Market Trends
Deal-making activity in Europe’s buyout and related private equity market showed a marked decline in the first quarter of 2017. With a total of 206
transactions valued at €12.0 billion, deal values did increase by 22% from Q1 2016. However, deal volumes decreased 36% from the same period last
year, marking the fewest deals done since Q3 2009.
The European top deals list was dominated by UK-based Neptune Energy Group, which received a €3.7 billion investment from CVC Capital Partners
and Carlyle Group; and Poland-based Grupa Allegro, which secured €3.7 billion investment from Cinven Group, Mid Europa Partners, and Permira
Advisers.
In addition to a decline in private equity deal volumes in European companies on a year-over-year basis, investment activity also continued to decline
as compared to European merger & acquisition activity overall. While the number of private equity deals reached a peak of 9% of the number of
traditional merger & acquisition deals in Q1 2015, this percentage had declined to only 6% in the first quarter of 2017, a three-year low.
European Buyout Fundraising
A total of 13 European private equity buyout funds raised a total of just €3.5 billion in Q1 2017, the weakest quarter since Q3 2012. This represented a
slow start to 2017, considering that European buyout funds raised no less than €34 billion in each of the past four years.
European Fund Performance
While investment activity was on the wane in 2016, the performance of European buyout funds showed steady positive performance, significantly
exceeding public market comparators. Final data provided by Cambridge Associates shows European buyout funds with vintage years of 2000 or
greater returned a since inception IRR of 12.8% as of year-end 2016. While this did lag behind these funds’ US counterparts, European buyout funds
outperformed their public markets by a greater margin.

Explanatory Notes
1. Data collected and analyzed by Thomson Reuters for this statistical report were drawn from a variety of sources including Thomson Reuters M&A databases, regulatory filings, press releases, and proprietary investor
reports from European and non-resident fund managers.
2. Key statistical indicators (e.g., total disbursements, per quarter or per annum) are influenced by the fact that a substantial fraction of buyout and other PE deals are not fully disclosed. For instance, “Euros invested” in a
given period pertain only to those deals with values that have been published or confidentially disclosed to Thomson Reuters.
3. Statistical data reflect all essential forms of buyout-PE deal-making, including control-stake acquisitions of businesses, minority equity investments, restructuring and special-situations transactions, mezzanine deals,
acquisitions for expansion and other quasi-equity investments.
4. Fund performance data and public market equivalents are produced via the Cambridge Associates Benchmark Calculator, available through Thomson Reuters Eikon. Returns are for European and US buyout funds with
vintage years of 2001 or greater, on a first cash flow basis, in Euros, from inception to the end of the indicated quarter, under published data mode Q4 2016. Pooled internal rates of return are net of fees, expenses and
carried interest. CA Modified Public Market Equivalent (mPME) replicates private investment performance under public market conditions. The public index’s shares are purchased and sold according to the private fund
cash flow schedule, with distributions calculated in the same proportion as the private fund, and mPME NAV is a function of mPME cash flows and public index returns.
5. All current and previous years data is as of Monday, May 29th, 2017. Data is continuously updated and is therefore subject to change. All figures are in Euros unless otherwise noted.
