Cyxtera Acquisition Prediction

Surfacing M&A Intent

By tapping into the programmatic ad ecosystem, we are able to monitor what articles are being read on 10,000+ business, news and finance websites. We apply the latest NLP techniques to the data to understand what each article is about. And, and employee of which company is doing that research. 

As a result, we produce financial intent data for 1M+ companies in the US.

 

Early Warning Radar for Acquisitions

Armed with this data and by applying AI/ML techniques,  we can alert you when:

– Employees and/or mgmt teams of companies are researching topics related to sale of business like valuation, financial audit, M&A lawyer, due diligence, etc. (M&A Score)
– Intermediaries/Advisors or Sponsors are researching the company (Deal-Maker Score)

A combination of these signals provides a powerful predictor of and an early warning radar for M&A activity.
