Market Conditions

Demand for differentiated companies remains high– Strategic buyers continue to seek opportunistic acquisitions to gain scale,

increase market share, enter new growth areas and achieve cost synergies– Venture Capital portfolio companies are looking for exit strategies in a market

where the IPO market is not an alternative

Debt is clearly more expensive and leverage ratios have tightened, but financing remains available

– Total debt multiples are lower in the second half of 2008, as compared to the second half of 2007, as banks have tightened their lending standards

– ABL facilities have tightened and covenants are tougher; liquidation value has taken hold

– However, strong cash flow and balance sheet still commands lender appetite

Net cash balance sheets offer flexibility and speed

Acquisition pricing expectations by sellers are moderating to reflect weaker economic and business outlooks for 2009
