Well-established model for evaluating, implementing, integrating and welcoming new companies to the Group
Momentum Group works in a structured way to identify acquisition candidates. In line with our decentralised business model, potential acquisition candidates are identified that can strengthen our current businesses and where there are opportunities to take leading positions.
Important issue that requires time and consideration
The process of ensuring a mutually beneficial acquisition rarely goes quickly. In fact, it is not uncommon for the process to take several months – or even years. This gives both parties time to get to know each other well before the transaction is completed. This minimises the risk of misunderstandings and false expectations while also creating trust and the necessary conditions to ensure that both parties and the employees involved are pleased with the results.
A proven model for identifying, implementing and successfully integrating and developing companies
How we work to identify interesting possibilities
Momentum Group’s process for identifying potential acquisition candidates involves a number of different steps designed to find attractive candidates. During the acquisition process, we want to establish realisable value creation plans for the companies we acquire.
An important first step is to identify various industrial segments – which we refer to as product verticals – that we consider attractive for acquisitions. These segments are identified based on a number of different criteria. Read more
When mapping out our end customers, we also conduct an analysis of the market and potential to assess the available market and the potential to expand the market to include new customer segments.
Based on the above, we continuously screen companies to find attractive candidates. To be a good strategic fit, a company should fulfil as many criteria as possible. In addition to being a good strategic fit, companies must also fulfil a number of company-specific criteria to be considered an attractive acquisition candidate. Read more
A structured acquisition process
When it comes to processing acquisition candidates, we work in a structured manner since we know this can be a complicated process that risks distracting focus from the customer side of the business for an entrepreneur in the process of selling a company.
We believe that working in internal teams allows us to ask relevant questions and help the entrepreneur to successfully navigate the process. Internal teams also play a key role when it comes to gathering information about the company that we can use to develop a plan for adding value, which we prepare for every acquisition together with the entrepreneur.
Due diligence of the acquisition candidate is performed before every acquisition. This work is carried out by experienced teams – made up of everyone from operational managers to financial experts and legal counsel – based on the specific conditions for each acquisition, since every company is different.
In each acquisition process, the company is assessed according to the aforementioned criteria which, when fulfilled, provide a solid foundation for further development as part of Momentum Group. The acquired company is expected to contribute to the Group’s short- and long-term profitability and offer healthy growth prospects.
