  • Portfolio Value-Adding by Private Equity Houses: Walking the Walk Or Just Talking the Talk?
    Portfolio value-adding by private equity houses: Walking the walk or just talking the talk? June 2010 Dr Mike Hicks Catalysis Advisory Portfolio value-adding by private equity houses Participants Twenty five private equity houses - across a full range of sizes and styles of investment - provided input. In the tables and graphics below they have been divided into approximate size groups based on self-declared equity-cheques. Name Group/abbreviation Octopus Ventures Maven Capital Partners Small cap YFM Private Equity ISIS Equity partners Lyceum Capital August Equity Dunedin Capital Partners HIG Capital Lower mid-market (LMM) Canter Equity Partners Chamonix Private Equity Baird Capital Partners Europe Total Capital Partners Macquarie HgCapital Nova Capital Management GMT Communications Partners AAC Capital Partners HSBC Private Equity Upper mid-market (UMM) ECI Partners Palamon Capital Partners Silverfleet Capital Duke Street 3i CVC Big buy-out (BBO) Blackstone Mike Hicks: Catalysis Advisory Page 2 Portfolio value-adding by private equity houses Executive summary 1. This study fills a gap in knowledge of value-adding practices across the mid-market 2. Private equity houses have a good record of adding greater value than public companies and over the last decade more houses have worked to improve this area. But more is demanded both by circumstances and LPs and there is a perception that plenty of value is being left on the table. 3. In many cases value-adding approaches emerged to handle tactical problems and have evolved piecemeal. Large ticket investors benefit from more manpower while small cap houses run much more on a shoestring. But mid-market investors have adopted variations on the large buy-out model when it comes to applying resources post-deal.

    PRIVATE EQUITY Newsletter QUARTERLY SPECIAL | EDITION 1+2/2021 SIGNED DEALS for 2020 and Q1/2021 within the German-speaking region EUROPEAN PE MARKET Interview with Senior Partner Christof Huth and Principal Dr Thorsten Groth as well as digital expert Dr Ulrich Kleipaß MOST RECENT STUDIES by Roland Berger Private Equity Newsletter Quarterly Special | Edition 1+2/2021 Dear Friends, Christof Huth dear Clients, What a start to the year! The first quarter of 2021 has broken almost every record so far. This edition of the Newsletter provides an overview of the tremendous deal flow in the first quarter of 2021 in com- parison to last year and examines various developments influencing the PE market. Additionally, it offers an overview of recent Roland Berger studies. Dr Sascha Haghani The 2020 PE year (197 transactions) saw lower deal activity overall than 2019 (253 transactions), driv- en by declines in the first half of 2020 in particular. In the second half of 2020, there was a quick recovery in PE-related deal-making in German-speaking Europe, which continues into 2021 so far. With 90 deals, Q1 of 2021 not only surpassed the already strong Q3 of 2020 but represents the strongest quarter in the long history of the PE Newsletter. Economically, the dominant topic for 2020 was COVID-19 and its impact on deal-making, on portfo- Sven Kleindienst lio companies and on daily life. By now the PE industry has become used to successfully dealing with COVID-19-related restrictions during deal-making and is focused on companies’ development outlook beyond COVID-19.

Cheap debt, quick flips and headline- grabbing deals have all but disappeared. Instead, the industry is rediscovering its traditional strengths — driving strategic and operational improvements at portfolio companies. This year’s Sunday Times Deloitte Buyout Track 100 is a portrait of private- equity-backed firms in the middle of the banking meltdown. The unique research, which measures the performance of port- folio companies by profit growth over the latest two financial years — rather than returns achieved on exit — covers the final months of expansion followed by recession and early recovery. The fifth annual league table, compiled by the Oxford-based research and networking-events company Fast Track, ranks businesses with the fastest-growing profits under £50m, in which private equity holds a stake of at least 20%. Half of this year’s firms have been rated on their performance between 2007 and 2009; the other half on that between 2008 and 2010.
