Being Acquired

Financial Services & Education Software
We focus on companies serving the financial services or education sectors, with annual revenues between US$ 2 million and US$ 30 million. It is important to us that the business has a defensible position in the market, and a strong share of recurring revenue. Beyond that, we’re flexible—whether the business is growing rapidly or has remained stable for years.
We are global investors and open to opportunities across a wide range of jurisdictions. We seek situations where we can bring a meaningful solution to the table—be it unlocking growth, resolving shareholder disputes, modernizing legacy offerings, or enabling smooth founder succession.

Other Niche Software or Services Companies
While our core focus is on financial services and education, we occasionally explore other verticals. In select cases, if we find an exceptional business in a niche we like, we may consider building a new platform around it.
In these situations, we typically look for companies that are an integral part of a narrowly defined business community, a spinal client offering and revenues of at least US$ 8 million. As we step into new markets, it is important to us that founders or their planned successors are keen to continue to operate the business.

We run our acquisition process with a small, experienced team—individuals who have spent decades acquiring and building businesses. This allows us to focus on the key risks that matter, without burdening sellers with unnecessary complexity or bureaucracy. While we strive to keep things practical and avoid deal fatigue, due diligence still requires careful preparation and thoughtful discussion.
If you’re considering a sale or partnership, we encourage you to explore our blog to better understand how we approach acquisitions—and how we aim to align our interests with yours every step of the way.
If what you’ve read resonates with you and you think your business might be a fit for our group, feel free to reach out. In most cases, we can get back to you within a day with a clear sense of whether we’re interested and how we might value your company.

We’re often surprised by how rarely founders—especially those planning to stay on after an acquisition—take the time to thoroughly evaluate their potential buyers. From alignment on industry vision to post-acquisition plans, there’s a lot worth understanding before you make a decision.
For us, acquiring a business isn’t a short-term play. We don’t buy to flip—we’re strategic acquirers, focused on specific industries only and acquire to keep building the business. That’s why it’s just as important for you to get to know us as it is for us to get to know you. You’ll want to be confident that we’re the right long-term partners for you, your team, and your customers.
