Chapman Associates has announced the initiation of its biennial survey of middle market transportation owners and chief executive officers to help predict the pose and direction of merger and acquisition activity in the transportation industry.
Over the past 18 years, Chapman Associates has been the only public or private organization to survey and report trends affecting mergers and acquisitions in the transportation industry.
“The transportation industry is in a constant state of flux and with this survey, Chapman Associates can capture important perceptions, buying behavior and other relevant industry data that just doesn’t exist in other databases,” said Joe W. Denny, chairman of Chapman Associates. “Our analysis of this study will provide important trending data on buying and selling activity in the transportation industry.”
The survey will also gauge the effect of recent spikes in fuel prices and other factors, and will rate the level of concern these factors have on transportation owners.
“By understanding owners’ perceptions regarding the level of merger and acquisition activity in a particular industry, such as transportation, we can reasonably project the best time to buy or sell as well as the relative value by size and type of carrier, type of operations and geographic area served,” Denny added.
An executive summary of the survey results will be made available to respondents upon completion of the study in June.
A national organization with offices and associates throughout the U.S., Chapman Associates has successfully sold over 2,200 companies worth billions of dollars. The company also provides research, analysis and marketing materials to its clients. Detailed information on the company can be found at www.chapman-usa.com. Or call (847) 884.0010.
