M&A Practice Group Co-Leader and Partner Bill Mutryn was interviewed in Washington Technology's February 2009 edition of "M&A Special Report."
The article discusses the unwavering activity in the mergers and acquisitions in the federal sector to continue through 2009 despite the bad economy. "The primes, the large defense primes and the tier ones - they have cash," Mutryn noted. "They don't have financing problems. They're seeing valuations that are favorable to them. So I think they will continue to be active purchasers." He also pointed out that larger companies are becoming interested in smaller companies to compliment their current services. "That's a new kind of trend," he continued. "So if you have a very good small company, there is going to be a high demand for it."
Mutryn also optimistically concludes that despite the economic turmoil, the government still pays its bills with a predictable budget for the next couple years. "So the demand for government contractors is still high."
