Our strategy
Growing mid-size companies in all sectors
Our strategy is to invest in mid-size companies with Enterprise Values ranging from €100M to €500M. We target businesses with an established position in their home market, strong revenue growth and robust margins. The EUAM Expansion team will leverage its accumulated experience in 4 key sectors (IT & Technologies, Business Services, Healthcare and Value-Added Industrials) to identify leading niche players and acquire them at reasonable valuations.
Major Eurozone economies
The team mainly invests across the major Eurozone economies (France, Germany, Italy, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and the Iberian Peninsula), as well as in Switzerland.
A mid to long term shareholder
We take a mid- to long-term perspective, typically holding our investments for 4 to 6 years, and partner with entrepreneurs, founding families or financial investors to foster sustainable value creation. As a majority or minority (with strong governance rights) shareholder, we have the flexibility to support family succession, an exit by financial sponsors or spin-offs.
