GF Data's Spring 2025 Key Deal Terms report is now available! We view key deal terms as leading indicators when valuations are rising and lagging indicators when falling. Based on full-year 2024 results, buyers became more risk-averse compared to 2023. Meantime, an increase in add-on activity reduced use of rep and warranty insurance on smaller deals. · Overall, indemnification caps decreased last year compared to 2023. However, we tracked that, on average, indemnification caps for larger deals increased in the second half of the year compared to 1H 2024. · Incidence of seller financing and earnouts (SFEs) decreased last year for larger deals over the same period while smaller deals utilized SFEs more frequently compared to 2023. · As private equity focused more on add-on investments last year, use of rep and warranty insurance declined last year compared to 2023. The utilization of rep and warranty insurance fell at a greater rate in smaller deals than the rest of deals tracked by GF Data in 2024. Association for Corporate Growth (ACG)
