Here is the summary of the M&A report:

  • Solganick continued to see multiple M&A transactions announced in the Salesforce partner ecosystem, with a heavy emphasis on strategic buyers acquiring smaller private Salesforce partners to add additional expertise, clients, and AI capabilities.
  • A few deals announced were private equity backed acquirers, but a majority were mid to large global systems integrators and digital transformation companies as buyers.
  • Salesforce continues to hold the leading global market share in customer relationship management software and maintains deep integration across enterprise systems. Its focus on expanding product offerings (like Slack, Data Cloud, and Agentforce) and leveraging generative AI is expected to drive robust long-term growth, especially as digital transformation remains a priority for global enterprises.
  • Salesforce delivered revenue of $10.24 billion in the most recent quarter, representing about 9.8% year-over-year growth and beating analyst estimates. Adjusted EPS came in at $2.91, also exceeding expectations. Subscription and Support revenues grew 11% year-over-year, while Professional Services saw a slight decline.
  • Recent Salesforce Acquisitions: Apromore, Waii, Bluebirds, Regrello, Moonhub, Informatica, and Convergence.ai.
