Company interventions
Companies are typically in the R100m – R500m turnover bracket but this can vary on both ends depending on the specifics of the intervention.
Upfront investments in smaller companies
Companies that fall into this space generally have less than R75m in annual turnover. The decision to invest will be dictated by growth prospects and the enthusiasm and competence of management.
Traditional private equity investments
Here we look for the following:
Annual turnover of R100 million to R500 million
Predictable, strong cash-flows
Assets or secure long-term contracts for leverage
Clear plans (or opportunities), to achieve significant market-share growth
Knowledgeable, committed management with a proven track record of achieving budgets
