We partner with businesses that demonstrate grit and resilience in times of flux, working behind the scenes with a commitment to long-term trends.
What we look for
Geographical focus
We work with SMEs in the UK and Europe, particularly family-led business models that stand the test of time.
Sector insight
Our interest spans various industries, and we strategically exclude pure tech or software, start-ups and businesses needing turnaround.
Financial benchmarks
We look for an enterprise value between €5m and €20m, and an EBITDA margin of 15% or higher, reflecting strong and sustainable financial health.
Industry dynamics
We favour markets that offer an attractive competitive environment, are non-cyclical and exhibit a tendency towards fragmentation, with the potential for consolidation.
Organisational attributes
Our ideal company has a solid foundation with an established business model. It should demonstrate clear growth prospects, light assets and a broad, loyal customer base contributing to a robust cash flow, all steered by a seasoned management team.
