"We participate predominantly in management buy-outs and buy-ins, leveraged buy-outs and BEE transactions involving businesses with a value of between R75 million and R1 billion. We offer clients a key advantage through our status as an on balance sheet private equity company, using our own funds for investment rather than third party funds. As a result, we do not have exit timing pressures and are able to invest for the longer term.
We invest selectively in a variety of businesses, based on the following:
- South African companies making sustainable annual earnings above R30 million EBITDA
- Sub-Saharan African companies making sustainable annual earnings above US$3 million operating profit
- Profitable and cash generative companies
- An experienced and competent management team
- Demonstration of market or niche dominance / leadership
- Good growth prospects
- Agriculture (except for the financing of agri-processing)
- Mining ventures (except for the financing of mining support services)
- Property ventures
- High tech ventures
- Start-ups and turnarounds"
