Mergers Slow Right Now with Reed Van Gorden of Deerpath Capital

Host Geoff Cockrell observes that seller anxiety about the potential for broken deals seems to be high right now. A surprising number of deals, he says, are reluctant to “go out into a wider market process.” Guest Reed Van Gorden of Deerpath Capital sees the same trend: mergers and business sales are slow. He’s waiting to see if the two additional interest rate cuts that are expected this year will set more deals in motion.

Reed finds that companies are performing well and have stabilized since the effects of the COVID pandemic. And the local businesses that Deerpath focuses on, such as medical offices, are not terribly affected by world events like supply chain problems or fluctuating oil prices.
