Inflexion
Inflexion is an independent private equity firm operating exclusively in the European mid-market segment.
Since its creation in 1999 in the UK, Inflexion has supported over 100 European mid-market companies. Today, it is one of Europe's largest mid-market private equity teams (200 employees), operating through its 5 European offices (London, Manchester, Amsterdam, Stockholm and Frankfurt) and its international relays (China, India, Singapore and Brazil). Inflexion has also just opened an office in New York to help its portfolio companies grow in North America.
A Growth Buyout strategy and an organisation of exceptional quality
Inflexion makes disciplined investments in companies that meet specific criteria.
These criteria include: annual sales growth of at least 10%, annual EBITDA growth of at least 15%, EBITDA margin of at least 15%, a high level of free cashflow, an ambitious management team, attractive market positioning and potential for international expansion.
To invest in mid-cap companies, Inflexion relies on a high-quality large-cap organisation giving it a clear competitive edge in the European mid-cap market.
Today, Inflexion has several multi-disciplinary and complementary teams, including an investment team, an organisation and marketing team, a value creation team, a portfolio team and a value protection team.
A true origination machine
One ofInflexion 's most differentiating teams in the market is its sector-specific origination team, which, with the help of the firm's dedicated marketing team (which promotes the " Inflexion brand" in Europe), generates a large proprietary dealflow of investment opportunities.
The origination team can draw onInflexion 's precise strategic criteria to sort out its dealflow. Depending on whether the founder or manager of a target company wishes to sell a majority or a minority stake, the investment opportunity will be allocated to the Inflexion Buyout fund (majority transactions) or the Inflexion Partnership Capital fund (minority transactions).
The Buyout team therefore benefits from significant resources.
A leader in mid-market buyouts in the U.K. that has successfully exported to Europe
Inflexion has built up an exceptional and very deep track record in the UK thanks to its strong investment discipline, its ability to originate proprietary transactions and the support of a large team with deep sectoral and operational expertise.
But Inflexion has also proved its ability to expand its activities thoughtfully and successfully across Europe, targeting investments in its areas of expertise outside the UK (the initial target geography).
Successful expansion into the Benelux region and the Nordic countries is a concrete example of this. Investing in Inflexion is an opportunity to follow the pan-European expansion of a proven and promising player.
Inflexion Buyout:Inflexion's flagship fund
Inflexion Buyout has a deep track record of 6 funds. The team has delivered consistently high performance over time. It has also already demonstrated its ability to generate high returns outside the UK, its historical market.
Investing in this fund means committing to the flagship fund of a buyout firm whose brand has no equivalent in the UK mid-market, Europe's leading private equity market.
