I'm excited to have Josh Rogers, CEO of Precisely, joining us today. We last spoke in 2020, but I was intrigued to learn that he has led the company through seven acquisitions. So I invited him to join me again to share his unique perspective on the current Mergers and Acquisitions (M & A) market.
As we all know, today's business leaders are facing a complex and challenging economic environment, with many facing the decision to either move forward or cease M&A activity completely. In fact, PwC reports that in comparison to the first half of 2021, deal values have declined by 20 percent.
However, buyers can experience better returns during a downturn and achieve outsized growth as valuations come down, according to the same analysis from PwC. Josh touches on this and the current economic environment, evaluating risk, and how leaders should proceed with M&As. He also shares his experience leading Precisely through seven acquisitions and the company's acquisition plans in the current market. Additionally, we discuss how leaders should communicate acquisitions to customers and the acquired company's employees.
Listen in as one of the most experienced M&A leaders in the tech industry shares his insights.
