Among the key findings:

- buyout entry multiples buyout to 9.6x EBITDA, their lowest level since 2017;

- sustained trading activity in high-quality assets;

- a secondary market that continues to grow rapidly;

- a slowdown in IPOs and tech exits.

In this context, investment opportunities are once again becoming more attractive to long-term investors, particularly in resilient, cash-flow-generating sectors. In summary, the first quarter of 2026 marks a phase of normalization and selectivity rather than a challenge to the fundamentals of private equity.
