We are focused on not only growing organically, but also through strategic acquisitions that can bolster our service offering.
Buy-and-hold
approach
We invest for the long term with no planned exit, ensuring stability for founders, employees as well as the business.
Founder
alignment
We invest in entrepreneurial, founder-led businesses and typically acquire a controlling stake, fostering alignment with all stakeholders.
Black Economic
Empowerment
We are a Black-owned company. By contributing to the company’s consolidated B-BBEE scorecard, investee companies will receive the full benefit of our 51% black ownership.
Clients
Our preference is for B2B businesses with a diverse client base, serving high-quality,
well-capitalised businesses.
Finances
Our acquisition focus is on businesses that are profitable, cash-generative and asset-light, that can distribute 75%+ of after-tax profits as dividends without compromising growth.
Geography
We prioritise South African opportunities, but would consider international opportunities.
Size
While size is flexible, we focus on transactions costing less than 10% of our market capitalisation.
