Surfacing M&A Intent to predict acquisitions

Fintent specializes in producing financial intent: an understanding of what mgmt teams and employees of 1M+ companies are researching on major business, news, finance and legal websites.

We combine this unique company intelligence with the power of AI to predict corporate actions of companies 3 – 15 months before they happen. We predict company acquisitions and surface M&A intent using 2 scores:

– M&A Score: indicates when employees and/or mgmt teams of companies are researching articles related to sale of business like investment bank, valuation, financial audit, M&A lawyer, due diligence, etc. 

– Deal-Maker Score: indicates when intermediaries/advisors or sponsors are researching targets. Typically is most effective for larger companies/bigger deals.

You can review 347 examples of acquisition predictions + scores & topics researched prior to the acquisition in this looker dashboard.

Below is a breakout of the prediction examples by industry.
