MARKET UPDATE

FOOD AND BEVERAGE


2015 was a robust year for food and beverage M&A, with over 230 North

American transactions announced. HW&Co. capitalized on the strong market in

2015, closing seven transactions in the snacks, ingredients, restaurant, food

distribution, and food processing segments. Looking forward, HW&Co. anticipates

that 2016 middle market deal flow will remain strong despite China’s economic

slowdown and continued uncertainty in the global economy. Middle market deals

should continue to garner significant interest, as both strategic and financial

buyers continue to be eager to put capital to work in the space.

STARTUPS TAKE BITE OUT OF FOOD POISONING

Following the release of new dietary guidelines, the USDA and Department of Health and Human Services have foundthemselves contending with a wave of criticism claiming that their recommendations are muddled and confusing.These complaints raise questions about the role of special interest groups in crafting the guidelines that play a criticalrole in determining the foods America produces, buys, and eats.


NEW DIETARY GUIDELINES GARNER CRITICISM

CAMPBELL SOUP SWITCHES SIDES IN THE GMO LABELING FIGHT

The Campbell Soup Co., a leading voice in the hotly-contested debate regarding required labeling of geneticallymodified ingredients, has surprised many with its recent shift in support of such measures. In response to consumerpressure and in avoidance of conflicting demands by individual states, the company has called for federal regulationthat will affect many of its own products as well as a broader industry that has vehemently opposed the move.
