What are the largest acquirers looking for (2/2)
�23III M&A ACTIVITY
Key strategic rationales driving M&A strategy
Inorganic growth gives established players a way to expand capabilities, client portfolios and scale
Vertical capabilities
• Acquisition of new verticals or deepening of existing capabilities.
Deal example: Luxoft – IntroPro, 2017 (Media, TV and Entertainment)
Delivery diversification
• New delivery geographies to diversify market / political risks. • Delivery in new countries/regions enables to tap into talent pool.
Deal example: Endava – Velocity Partners, 2018 (delivery centers in Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia, Venezuela)
Client acquisition
• Acquisition of new clients or enhancement of current client profile. • Small players can be attractive depending on their client profile.
Deal example: GlobalLogic – Rofous Software, 2011 (e.g. LinkedIn, Stryker)
Scale
• Enables companies to bid for larger projects.
Deal example: Helmes – Solbegsoft, 2018
Technical / language capabilities
• Enhancement of tech teams is faster via M&A than through organic growth.
Deal example: Smile – Adyax, 2018
”We expect established players to continue consolidating a fairly fragmented market

Foreword: industrial focus makes the difference Co-founder and the CEO of Intellias
Vitaly Sedler
IV
I believe it is not a coincidence that Intellias was founded in Lviv. This city’s democracy, openness, and atmosphere of collaboration, mutual trust, and win-win relationships played a decisive role in shaping our personal values, and these values have defined the culture of our company.
From the very beginning in 2002, Intellias culture has been based on an equal commitment to the needs of both customers and employees. While it’s not easy to consistently maintain this culture in a company that grows by 45 percent every year, we still keep most of our original values intact. In recent years, we have expanded our geographical presence from west to east and from north to south by bringing together top engineering talent from all over Ukraine, but our company culture remains strong and enables our further growth.
As the IT services industry becomes the second largest export service industry in Ukraine, accounting for nearly 20% of the country’s service exports, more and more companies are entering this highly competitive market. We believe that the future growth of IT companies, as well as the IT market in Ukraine as a whole, will be defined by a strong focus on specific industry or technology domains. And those service providers who have focused and have built deep competencies, those who have defined more efficient service models, will be able to better compete and win on the global market.
To make the most of collective expertise within our focus areas, we have set up a system of Centers of Excellence (CoEs) in our company. These centers are open communities that attract senior engineers and managers who are ready to go beyond their regular duties, lead development of competencies, and apply their skills so that our clients get the most out of the expertise within Intellias.
This is one of many ways to attract global companies to develop their projects here in Ukraine. The country is becoming a preferred location for pursuing the tech waves of tomorrow such as the Internet of Things, autonomous driving, virtual and augmented reality, robotics, and digital banking.
In addition to technology CoEs, we are building industry-focused CoEs, starting with automotive, location-based services, and FinTech and expanding to other verticals. This will allow Intellias to better understand and serve its customers in those markets.
Today, Intellias is the fastest-growing company among Ukraine’s top 15 largest IT service providers. We stand at the forefront of a growing IT industry in Ukraine that is forecasted to reach 200,000 software engineers and $5 billion in revenue by 2021. We are proud that our everyday work, helping global leaders stay at the cutting edge of Industry 4.0, is fueling the development of a new economy in Ukraine. This report gives you insights into how this is happening.

Expert’s overlook on Ukrainian tech scene
Global IT spending is projected to grow 6,2% in 2018, according to the latest forecast by Gartner. If you compare it to the Ukrainian IT industry growth rate of 20% year-to-year, over the last five years, you’ll find a distinct evidence that Ukraine’s tech scene is on the rise. Some individual IT companies in Ukraine manage to grow even faster. N-iX, for example, has tripled in size over the last 3 years.
Such rapid industry development contributes to an ever-growing need for talent. The demand for software engineers in Kyiv matches such of Singapore and Paris. At the same time, Kyiv’s talent pool is less than half the size of aforementioned cities. In some ways, such situation in Ukraine is caused by the active growth of IT outsourcing companies. This year 18 companies operating here were named to top 100 outsourcing companies worldwide.
Ukrainian export software development industry is one of the fastest growing segments of the Ukrainian economy. Export revenues have already exceeded $3,6 billion. Last year software development services took third place among top export industries. In five years, we hope to become the second export industry, beat the steel industry and maybe even compete with agriculture. Though, it is unlikely to happen because agriculture will grow massively as well. I am optimistic about Ukraine’s economic growth, because we are the highest populated country in Eastern Europe, possessing a valuable human capital of smart and ambitious individuals who are willing to develop our country. Ukraine has an engineering DNA and a profound engineering and mathematical background.
The future of Ukrainian tech The digital transformation trend changes companies around the globe. We see certain trends in tech, namely Cybersecurity, Virtual Reality, Data Analytics and Ed-Tech solutions – all of them have great potential for growth. Ukraine is actively developing in all of these directions. At the country level and even at the company level, the focus will shift towards more complex intellectual tasks. Data Science, product engineering, R&D for self-driving cars – all of these domains have great growth prospects in Ukraine.
Ukraine offers software development services for technologically complex projects. A well-developed software service industry in Ukraine gives a basis for many startups to emerge here. I believe that the service industry has to grow further, giving more and more people an opportunity to grow professionally and to gain knowledge background to launch own startups or work at product companies. It’s a win-win for both service and product industry directions.Ukraine’s tech industry currently has all the possibilities to become our ticket to economic prosperity. Further tech industry growth requires an active focus on human capital development to cover the demand for talent. Our favorable taxation system and low cost of living make Ukraine one of the most attractive places for software developers in terms of net earnings. By creating more infrastructure development projects similar to innovation district IT Park in Lviv and UNIT.City in Kyiv we are promoting our country as a comfortable place to live, work and do business.
The development of the tech industry nourishes the internal market as well, creating additional jobs in other spheres, pumping additional resources into the internal market. IT is an innovative industry, expanding the horizons for young people, providing opportunities to travel, empowering lifelong learning. IT also gives a push to entrepreneurship: these well-educated, well-paid, and talented individuals create their own companies and startups. This is a very positive trend, influencing most of the institutions and transforming the entire country into a free, democratic state.
CEO & Founder of N-iX
Andrew Pavliv
According to a recent PwC report, the IT industry in Ukraine has optimistic perspectives for future development. In particular, the
number of employees working in IT and related fields is expected to grow to 250,000 by 2020. Andrew Pavliv, CEO & Founder of N-iX,
shares his thoughts on dynamics and further evolvement of Ukraine’s tech industry.

Salaries: Kyiv offers the best access to talent at the highest cost• Kyiv offers the highest level of salaries that comes along with the fiercest competition and access to the most abundant talent pool • Salaries are about 11% lower in the regions on average; however, the talent pool is more limited especially for niche experts, senior
technical and advanced business professionals. Most drastic differences in Kyiv vs Regional salaries are in management positions: Project managers in Kyiv are more expensive by about 22%, Team Leaders by 19% and Senior Project Managers by 3%
• As the demand greatly exceeds supply, companies cannot compete only with salaries. Such factors as strong HR brand, compelling employee perks and benefits (including modern office spaces, flexible working schedules, appealing food and, most importantly, challenging projects) gain more importance

Opinion: Ukraine becomes the top automotive software hub
- How do software companies in Ukraine build strategies to differentiate themselves on the market? Most successful software engineering companies in the world follow the same track. They build core competence based on the experience accumulated with their key accounts. Then they seek market winners and try to penetrate their target market with a set of competencies they already have. That was also the story for Intellias. We were fortunate to have a solid number of key accounts in the automotive industry. That helped us to promote our brand within an industry that now turns out to be a flourishing market and that has become one of the fastest-growing B2B markets for IT outsourcing companies.
- Why does automotive get so much attention within the IT community? First of all, the end product is very attractive and popular. People go crazy about cool cars, and now software is becoming one of the main differentiators for competing car brands. Second, it’s one of the oldest technological industries that’s now undergoing explosive digital transformation. You may argue that there are industries like coal mining and manufacturing that have longer histories, but ultimately, they aren’t dealing with mass-market brands like the automotive industry is. There’s a huge demand for technological innovations and a huge consumer market at the same time. The automotive industry contributes $2.75 trillion (3.65%) to global GDP. If we took vehicle manufacturing as a country, it would be the sixth largest economy in the world. Third, the industry has a lot of standards and legacy technologies, and at the moment it’s suffering from a big change to overall consumption and business models. Different players and technologies are striking the automotive industry.
- What do Ukrainian IT companies develop within the automotive field? Actually, they do pretty much everything. If you take a given software development company in Ukraine, you’ll find they have some technological focus. Some of them are focused on embedded software, others on UI/UX services. At Intellias, we’re focusing on platform development and platform integration in the automotive industry and on the future of mobility. We have senior-level engineers experienced in car navigation systems and services built around geolocation and positioning, and of course we have experts in connectivity, ADAS, and HMI. In fact, we have an emerging automotive community here in Ukraine. We have annual industry events like the Navimotive conference, which is dedicated to technologies in the automotive and navigation fields and gathers speakers from well-known companies along with local enthusiasts and engineering minds.
- Are automotive companies, OEMs, and Tier 1 vendors starting to outsource more to Ukraine and establish R&D centers here? Automotive companies keep distinguishing Ukraine as the top outsourcing destination. OEMs and Tier 1 vendors aim at establishing stronger partnerships with the IT community here. Thus, Ukrainian companies have to focus on delivering value-added services by becoming complex integrators of complete solutions. Take Intellias: we have over 600 engineers involved in automotive projects, which is a very decent number compared to the average in the market. Our service portfolio delivered to OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers from Germany, the UK, Japan, and South Korea contains various location data platforms, navigation systems, predictive maintenance software, and solutions for fleet management and urban mobility. Based on our regular communication with customers, we see that automotive companies are ready to share more responsibility and extend cooperation with Ukrainian companies. And this is the main background for the further growth of the entire industry.

strategy and by embracing cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence,
computer vision, IoT and embedded systems, V2X connectivity, DevOps and cloud.

To me what is important is to have a real partner. Intellias is not a typical
outsourcing company; it is more close and personal. There has to be a deep
understanding of the product, there has to be a lot of connection with
a business where we operate, and this is what I found Intellias o!ers.

• Registration is free of charge and takes one day upon submitting all the necessary documents
• Collaborating with outsourcing/outstaffing companies (Boeing, Ericsson) may help to extend your development capabilities or completely outsource all IT engineering employment issues
• Using an intermediary to maintain the operations in Ukraine (Certent, People.ai) helps reducing costs and saving time on accounting, reporting, HR paperwork etc.
• Registered office of a foreign company in Ukraine (without establishing a separate legal entity) – registration takes at least 60 business days + $2,500 fee

Acquisition of a Ukrainian Target Acquisition Structuring and Financing
• For non-resident of Ukraine vendors, the transaction typically occurs between non-residents of Ukraine to eliminate the Ukrainian withholding tax on the proceeds. From the perspective of the acquirer, the acquisition is usually financed partly with equity and partly with debt at an intermediary level
• Debt push-down transactions usually do not work in Ukraine as there is no tax consolidation or fiscal unity regime. There is little flexibility to permit assignment of debt obligations. A cross-border merger is not permitted
• It is possible, however, to up-stream cash flows from a Ukrainian subsidiary to fund the servicing of debt payments, through, e.g. deductible service fees or interest payments
• If an independent third party financing is required, the structuring also has to satisfy security considerations of the financing parties

Advantages of acquiring a Ukrainian company
• It facilitates post-acquisition re-organizations, allows for an exemption for intercompany dividends and provides flexibility in financing the Target operation within Ukraine
• In real property acquisitions, it provides for a step-up cost-base for amortization allowances and input VAT and may provide for improved access to the Target assets for security purposes

Real estate: abundance of modern office space across the country
• The country offers plenty of office space options in most medium and large cities. Depending on location and building, rent prices vary from c. $120 per sq.m. annually for an office in Lviv, Odesa, Dnipro, Kharkiv to up to c. $500 per sq.m. in Class A office in Kyiv.
• Often, the lessees need to make renovations at their own expense or pay back the related costs to landlord at the rate from $30 (minor renovation) up to $250 (heavy construction) per sq.m. The office premises are typically leased without furniture and equipment

Expert guide to your Salesforce project validation
Salesforce technology is gaining a momentum. Though often perceived as a pure CRM tool, there is much more to Salesforce than just that. It is a mighty cloud-based enterprise platform with many ready-to-go solutions that helps to stay connected with customers, prospects, employees and partners. More and more enterprises and startups globally tend to make use of it on a daily basis. As a service integrator providing an assortment of services in Salesforce Eco System, Mobile apps and data-powered solutions, CoreValue experts share the insights on how to successfully validate the efficiency of your Salesforce project.
Audit for Salesforce Projects Investments into Salesforce.org technology have certain horizons, and sometimes after the launch into production, senior executives start asking these questions: Is my client technology up to date? Does it require an upgrade? What are the latest and greatest features of the upgrade? Do these features make sense for us to use them with this client? That’s why performing regular Salesforce solution audits is an essential element of a technology lifecycle. It refreshes respective needs and KPI’s, unveils gaps and suggests correction approaches.
1) Where do we start with the actual audit? Kick-Off: Let’s Warm Up!The initiation of an audit engagement starts with the client being briefed by the CoreValue project team about the goals and focus areas. It includes precise clarification of short-term goals together with the alignment on the timeline, scope, and long-term strategy. Solution Architects and PMs are active participants in this briefing.
2) Is there anything in the architecture or business flow that impedes meeting growth objectives? Business processes focused review is the next step in a tech audit process, and normally includes: – Business processes and a Salesforce flow correspondence review – Architecture overview – Licensing and clouds review – Integrations and customizations review This requires close interaction of the CoreValue project team and Business Analysts with the client’s Head of Technology, and a 360-degree view of the system is produced.
3) Is my code clear and configurable? Does any legacy software require replacement? Code Hygiene – Development process quality, is where we investigate the fundamentals of the system. This technology-focused review primarily includes: – Codebase analysis and development process review – Data flows and integration points review
Solution Architects and technology managers investigate code coverage and quality, usage of Salesforce functionality, data asset quality, inputs and outputs, integrations, and testing processes, with a special focus on UI and regression testing. Security and access is another milestone of the technical audit. It is critical to complete a detailed investigation of compliance and security reviews of the existing system and data, as well as multidimensional access rules.
4) So, what’s the detailed picture? Reporting is the finalization of all the work performed, based on the documentation and interviews conducted, so that client can evaluate the current state of the system and future maintenance considerations.
A tailored report presents a thorough gap analysis within key technical areas, and provides actionable insight and recommendations on prioritized improvements of Salesforce-based solutions, scoring it against industry best practices, together with time and cost estimates, and a detailed code review with annotations. Conducting a technical audit, by our experts, provides valuable insight on Salesforce projects, which typically includes several stages such as tech stack, code hygiene, development processes, the ability to scale, security, etc. General practice shows that CoreValue will ensure that any cause for concern is red-flagged and recommendations for areas that need to be improved are documented and shared.

Foreword
It is with great pleasure that we share the Polish part of the CEE Software Development report with you.
We have been first hand observers of the rise of the modern IT industry in Poland from its humble beginnings. IT services and IT professions have grown from a niche market to a powerhouse of the Polish economy. The sector drives not only investment into Polish low cost labor but gives birth to rising stars that are becoming consolidators of international markets.
The market we describe in this report has benefited from very good conditions for growth in the recent years, but also has had its fair share of challenges. Currently, as in all countries of the world, finding talent becomes more and more difficult. In these challenging times acumen in business development is equally important as attracting and retaining employees. This drives costs up and leads to market consolidation.
We are also seeing an upcoming wave of mergers and acquisitions. Small and mid sized companies will find it harder and harder to compete for employees while maintaining competitive rates and level of quality. This can be already seen with two large private equity groups consolidating the market around with their so called ‘platforms’ - large companies acting as vehicles for acquisitions. In Poland these are Intive, recently acquired by Mid Europa Partners and IT Kontrakt, backed by Cornerstone Partners and Oaktree. We expect this strategy will be embraced by more companies in the near future.

Foreword
The IT industry in Belarus has been developing rapidly over the years, with the highest point in recent years. Belarus and its IT breakthrough have already been noticed by many world media outlets, among which: The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Reuters, Euronews. A significant contribution to the increasing popularity of the IT industry in Belarus, as well as to the development of the IT ecosystem in the country, was made by Decree No. 8 “On the development of the digital economy”, adopted by the President of the Republic of Belarus in 2018.
The adoption of this rather revolutionary law emphasizes the dynamics that are now observed in the Belarusian IT industry, and mainly in one of the country's largest hubs - the High-Tech Park. Annually, the volume of revenue and exports of the Park residents grows at an amazing pace on a large scale: it is expected that the volume of exports in 2018 will significantly exceed $ 1 billion to a similar figure in 2016 of $ 820 million. At the same time, the number of Park residents reached 454 companies by the end of 2018, having increased from 165 at the end of 2016. The development of the IT industry is supported by a strong educational base with a large number of industry-specific specialties in more than 15 Belarusian universities, which annually graduate 17 thousand specialists to work in the industry.
Along with other high-tech countries, Belarus is becoming a software development service provider with a well-established history for international and foreign client companies. All this indicates a significant potential of the country, which will become even more developed in the coming years.

Strategic choices for startups: OW dedicated development teams ensure fail-proof partnership
VI
According to Startup Rankings, the United States has the most startups with 45.890 in 2018, and that number will continue to grow. Many of these startups have succeeded by striking the right balance between streamlining core business operations and building a truly winning team. In today’s tech landscape, the demand for talented developers far exceeds the available supply. The statistics show that in every region of the USA, there are more open positions for software developers than the number of qualified developers to fill them. For that reason, the so-called “external” option is often considered life-saving.
Dedicated Development Teams
The Dedicated Development Team (DDT) model, or outstaffing, is a business arrangement where a customer and a vendor agree on the workload and requirements. The service provider creates a team of IT-professionals focused solely on the customer’s project. The best-known startups like Slack, Groove, Upwork have been partnering with offshore dedicated development teams for years. The successful experience of such reputed companies has made outstaffing an established industry standard.
Startups are going offshore
Rapidly developing startups are now warming up to the idea of outstaffing. This year, the Deloitte Global Outsourcing Survey revealed that 66% of companies entrusted certain business processes to other companies that ultimately resulted in greater performance in the global market.
Partnering with top-notch startups
iTechArt is a leading outstaffing company, listed on Inc. 5000 with over 1200 employees and more than 150 active clients across multiple industries. We’ve provided dedicated teams for fast-moving companies and tech startups from top accelerators like Techstars, 500 startups, ERA, Dreamit and Y Combinator. Our clients have faced the following challenges. Timelines were not being met, so it was crucial to accelerate the development process and to scale up according to the required skill set and experience as fast as possible. A lack of transparency and flexibility put their businesses at risk. There was a need for domain–first candidates with specific expertise. As practice shows, an absolute prerequisite to a win-win partnership is a stable working process to handle the perils of the unstable startup environment. We tend to follow the principle of The Three Cs: capability, culture, and cost. On average, our client saves $500,000 per year with our development team on board. As for culture, being agile means building strong interpersonal relationships that embrace our clients’ mindset. The main task here is to develop a common understanding of the partnership in a long-term perspective. Ensuring a high level of flexibility is one of our primary interests. For example, with our client eTouches, we managed to scale up to 14 developers within 8 months. With ClassPass, we were able to quickly provide them with 6 engineers and further scale up to 30+ developers over 2 months.
Recap:According to Stratistics Market Research, worldwide IT outsourcing is expected to reach $481.37 billion by 2022. It’s no wonder that more and more startups are considering working with dedicated teams. Now it’s not just about cutting costs, but about driving competitive advantage and performance, improving speed to market, and increasing innovation.

�111VII ROMANIA
Foreword
We are proud to present the Romanian part of the CEE Software Development Report to you. In Romania, technical skills and IT have been valued since generations and promoted throughout the educational system. This has led to an emergence of a fantastic ecosystem conducive to the growth of IT industry.
Romanian IT specialists proficient in foreign languages have further supported the entry of global players into the country, where English is spoken fluently by most people and French is known by one in four IT graduates. This has led to a massive influx of foreign companies setting up their BPOs in Romania (organically or through acquisitions) and hampered the growth of domestic players due to strong competition for talented engineers.
This trend still continues and despite the limited size of the industry in Romania, its M&A market dominated by foreign buyers is showing growing level of activity. There are, however, several extremely successful companies rooted in Romania who are already visible globally. With thousands of students earning prestigious degrees from Romania’s top IT universities, we are confident about the promising future of the industry in Romania.
