Investment Thesis

Why we sell & Why we buy?

Controlling Shareholder

We do not seek to be "super-employee" CEOs. We take control to ensure strategic direction, but our goal is to identify competent operational management within 3-6 months.

Value via Optimization

We look for companies with sub-optimal margins (<20%). Value added comes from raising these margins through digitalization (ERP/CRM) and efficiency, not just sales growth.

Clear Exit Strategy

We do not buy to hold forever. We structure the business to be "sellable" to investment funds or strategic players within a 5-year horizon.

The 5-Year Plan

Our Methodology

Phase 1: Acquisition (Buy)

We target a Controlling Shareholder transaction (minimum 51%). We structure the deal using our own equity, bank financing, and 'seller financing' mechanisms to align interests.

Cash-Flow & Operational Due Diligence
Structure: Equity + Bank + Earn-out
Identifying operational successor (3-6 months)
