Outlook for next few months: There is a strong pipeline of interesting and diverse assets waiting in the sidelines, after a summer of preparation and riding out the eerily quiet IPO market. The pipeline includes a number of blockbuster European deals tipped to launch their IPO. The main question is whether this pipeline will provide Q4 or whether next year will provide a more enthusiastic audience for their offerings. We are seeing a challenging if not difficult market place with wary investors spooked by China s immediate growth prospects and tumbling equities across European exchanges. We expect M&A to continue to dominate headlines, as we have a seen already this year a number of good IPO candidates being thwarted at the last minute. Even if the market jitters remain, 2015 has been a solid year for due to a strong first half. As market volatility has increased it will be interesting to see how difficult this makes the IPO market.

On one hand there is a promisingeuropean IPO pipeline made up of companies from varying sectors seeking to IPO across Europe's exchanges whilst on the other hand the markets remain challenging with investors wary of falling equity indices and continued concern over China's growth prospects. The question for companies is whether they better keep their powder dry and wait for more stable markets. However, based on recent announcements it seems companies and bankers remain confident that the markets will be open in Q4.

Equities and debt, especially the high yield market, have been battered and bruised and this market turbulence has been slow to subside. The decision being debated with investment bankers in many boardrooms across Europe currently is focused on the timing of launching an IPO and the markets receptiveness to new issuers with the key question being - when is the right time to launch?

There were a total of 45 that raised $7.3 billion in the third quarter of 2015. Continuing a recent trend, the healthcare industry continued to lead US IPO market activity, accounting for 42 percent of total volume with 19. The financial sector led offering value, raising 2.3 billion in proceeds, driven by a sharp increase in special purpose acquisition companies, which accounted for over two-thirds of all financial sector activity. Technology, an historically strong player in the IPO market, saw only 2 in the third quarter as high private valuations and increased later stage funding has made it possible for technology companies to fund operations without going public. Financial sponsors and venture capital companies remained active in the third quarter of 2015, backing slightly more than 45 percent of IPO volume and value. A very active venture capital market continued to drive private valuations and were prolific in the biotech IPO sector. The Hong Kong market also slowed down in the third quarter, but thanks to large proceeds raised in Q2, YTD proceeds are at 18.2bn up 47% from 2014 YTD. 14 IPO Watch Europe Survey Q3 2015
