<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Notes From The Block</h3>
New data suggests that, after several volatile years, the behavioral health sector is regaining favor among strategic and financial buyers.
In the first quarter, 47 transactions were reported, including 34 mergers and acquisitions. That&#8217;s the highest M&amp;A volume since the fourth quarter of 2022, according to investment banker Kevin Taggart.
In <a href="https://www.mertztaggart.com/post/q1-2025-behavioral-health-m-a-report">a blog post</a> published this week, Taggart explained that renewed interest in the intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and autism segments was a key driver of the momentum. The firm tallied 12 transactions in Q1, the highest level since 2021.
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy providers, in particular, are back in high demand. 
"The dust has seemed to settle" following the pandemic-era wage inflation and a wave of bankruptcies among large ABA providers, Taggart, a managing partner at Mertz Taggart, wrote. That shift has led to heightened buyer interest, especially in the wake of major exits.
The mental health subsector continues to show strong and steady deal flow, too. Twenty-nine transactions (19 M&amp;A and 10 growth investments) were announced in Q1, roughly matching the 30 deals reported in Q4 2024. 
Demand for psychiatric hospitals is particularly robust, though limited supply constrains deal volume. "We've had more groups ask us for psych hospitals since Q1 this year than probably any quarter in the last three or four years," Taggart said. "But there are fewer smaller operators out there."
Taggart also pointed to an ongoing trend: sustained investor appetite for high-valuation growth deals. "Money has continued to pour into these growth deals, which surprised us a bit," he said, signaling continued bullish sentiment across behavioral health verticals.

Earnings Scheduled For May 6, 2025

The U.S. stock market staged a stunning one-month rebound, fully erasing the losses triggered by Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">April 2 tariff announcements.</a>
From its April low of 4,835 points, the S&amp;P 500—tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)—has surged 17.5%, logging nine consecutive sessions of gains through Friday, the longest winning streak since May 2024.
Still, the rally has been far from uniform across sectors.
The sectoral rebound since April has been powerful, but only a handful of sectors have managed to fully recover to or exceed their April 2 levels, before Trump&#8217;s tariff announcements triggered a broad selloff.
Technology led the charge, surging 25.9% since the April low and now stands 3.8% above its April 2 level, the strongest full recovery among all major sectors.
Industrials and Utilities also climbed 1.8% and 1% above their early-April levels, respectively.
Sectors like Consumer Discretionary , Communication Services, Financials, Consumer Staples, and Real Estate posted strong double-digit rebounds off April lows—ranging from 8.3% to 18.9%— finally reaching April 2 levels without breaching them.
On the other end of the spectrum, Energy remains 13.4% below its April 2 level, making it the worst laggard. Health Care is still down 4% from early April, even after recovering 7.2%. Materials also underperformed, ending the period 1.9% below its pre-tariff announcement level.
