Analysis-As global tumult grows, UK Plc's stability and bargains appeal to dealmakers
By Amy-Jo Crowley, Yadarisa Shabong and Purvi Agarwal LONDON (Reuters) -More than $10 billion in bids for British companies announced on Monday, this year's busiest day according to Dealogic data, showed how low valuations and the market's relative stability were attracting rivals and funds after a volatility-induced pause. Companies may also be using the opportunity to enter the UK market before potential further weakening of the dollar or strengthening of the pound made future transactions more expensive, analysts said. Among those to announce takeover offers for UK firms on Monday were U.S. chipmaker Qualcomm, private equity firm Advent, and France's L'Oreal. While U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs and the resulting volatility hampered dealmaking for weeks, some companies are now finding the right conditions to agree on transactions. Niccolo de Masi, CEO of Maryland-based IonQ, which on Monday announced a $1.08 billion acquisition of British quantum computing firm Oxford Ionics, said that in addition to Britain's talent pool, the geopolitical backdrop made the deal more compelling as governments want more "sovereign quantum networks," he said. "People want things on-premise and they want things to be local," de Masi told Reuters. So far this year, there have already been 30 bids for UK companies valued at more than 100 million pounds ($135.44 million), compared with 26 over the same period of last year and 45 for the whole of 2024, according to Peel Hunt. The total value of 24 billion pounds of deals announced to date compared with 36 billion pounds in the year-ago period, which was skewed by a few large deals, such as International Paper's $7.1 billion bid for D.S Smith. Years of outflows from UK equities that depressed valuations for British companies compared with their competitors listed on other European or U.S. exchanges, have played a role in making them more attractive as acquisition targets. For example, the discount between the FTSE 100 [.FTSE] and the U.S. S&P 500 [.SPX] benchmarks peaked at about 49.5% in January and is about 41% now. "Management teams have been happier to accept bids because sometimes that is an easier way to crystallize the valuations and as equity markets have been so challenging for so long," Amanda Yeaman, co-manager of the abrdn UK Smaller Companies Fund and the abrdn UK Smaller Companies Growth Trust plc. Moreover, bidders are being drawn to a relatively stable UK economic and political backdrop. "We now have an improving economic environment in the UK, and the regulatory position is much more predictable," said Charles Hall, head of research at Peel Hunt. "Buying a UK company at the moment is likely to be less risky than, say, buying a U.S. business." The trade deals that Britain has pursued also show the country is "open for business," Yeaman said. And with no general election due soon, Britain promises political stability. "Our markets really like stability and for the next four years, that is something that we have, which is less predictable in other geographies," she said. Analysts also say the pound's strength does not seem to act as a deterrent. "Particularly global investors, U.S. investors are thinking, let's grab as much as we can before things get more expensive and currency tailwinds are still there," said Magesh Kumar, equity strategist at Barclays. This year's largest bids so far were all announced this week, with Advent offering 3.7 billion pounds for scientific instruments maker Spectris and Qualcomm's 1.8 billion pound bid for Alphawave, and some advisers expect many more to come. Erik O'Connor, partner at Clifford Chance, said that while economic uncertainties could weigh on the M&A market, factors such as more predictable outlook for interest rates and UK companies' improved balance sheets should encourage dealmaking. "There's a sense that key fundamentals are in the right place to transact," O'Connor said, pointing to technology and real estate, the busiest sectors so far this year according to Dealogic, as those less susceptible to recent market volatility. "I would not be surprised if we continue at a similar pace," he said. ($1 = 0.7383 pounds) Sign in to access your portfolio

Morning Bid: No relief from US-China trade truce
A look at the day ahead in European and global markets from Johann M Cherian European investors are set to wake up to a souring mood as rapidly rising tensions in the Middle East and yet another tariff salvo from U.S. President Donald Trump triggered a new wave of dollar-selling and risk-off moves. The much-hyped U.S.-China talks culminated in a fragile truce that may have put a lid on simmering trade tensions between the world's top two economies for now but the lack of details has left investors unnerved. For starters, China President Xi Jinping is yet to give his approval on the 'deal'. And details on how the new tariffs will be implemented are yet to be ironed out and U.S. export restrictions on high-end artificial intelligence chips are still in place. And with the July 8 deadline on worldwide tariffs fast approaching, Trump is back to his unilateral style of policymaking as he said he would send out letters in one to two weeks outlining terms of trade to dozens of other countries, which they could embrace or reject. Markets will be hoping for another TACO moment. While backward looking inflation reports are yet to reflect the price pressures, companies are starting to sound the alarm. Zara-owner Inditex was the latest to issue a disappointing quarterly report and flag headwinds from trade uncertainty. And as if investors did not have enough to juggle with already, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are flaring, adding to the risks of rising crude prices fuelling inflation pressures. Supply concerns out of the oil-rich region pushed Brent and West Texas Intermediate futures to two-month highs of nearly $70 a barrel each. In all of this, as my colleague Jamie McGeever points out, valuations in equities and stocks are beginning to appear stretched, compounding the risks to investors in the event of a market selloff. European futures were down 0.7%, while futures in the U.S. are pointing to a lower open on Thursday, but the benchmark indexes in the regions are just about 2% away from their respective record highs. Further, investors continue to question the dollar's safe-haven status. On Thursday, the euro hit a seven-week high and is up 11% this year, poised for its biggest yearly advance since 2017. The central bank bonanza next week could perhaps throw more light on the global economy's outlook. The U.S. Federal Reserve along with the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England are due to announce their policy decisions. Meanwhile, investors will look for a string of UK economic data including reports on gross domestic product and manufacturing output later in the day. Both are expected to reflect a decline in activity on a monthly basis, reigned in by the BoE's cautious approach to monetary policy easing. Key developments that could provide more direction to markets on Thursday: - In the UK: GDP, industrial output, manufacturing output and trade data - In the U.S.: Producer inflation data, initial weekly jobless claims report and an auction of 30-year bonds worth $22 billion - Policymakers expected to speak include ECB's Jose Luis Escriva, Reserve Bank of Australia's David Jacobs - UniCredit CEO sees slim hopes of BPM deal, says Commerzbank too costly - Oracle raises annual forecast on robust cloud services demand - Warner Bros' credit rating downgraded to junk by Fitch on split-up (By Johann M Cherian; Editing by Muralikumar Anantharaman) Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
