ONEtoONE Asset Management has wrapped up its 2023 endeavors with a grand total of 31 investments, following the launch of a €35M fund earlier in the year to invest in SF and European SMEs.
The strategic vision involves investing in 80 Search Funds and 30 companies over the fund’s lifecycle. Emphasis is placed on transactions involving financially robust entities with resilient business models, EBITDA ranging between €1M and €5M, growth potential, and typically under retiring entrepreneurial ownership.
Within this ambit, the ONEtoONE-managed fund has secured stakes in 6 companies and 25 Search Funds such as Aurias, Roxbi Capital, Forás Capital, KG Capital, Relevia, Sunrise Capital, Origo Capital, Izisoft Capital, among others, spanning 9 countries (Spain, France, United Kingdom, USA, Italy, Germany, Ireland, Australia, and the Netherlands), with Spain holding a prominent position in its portfolio (Spain currently spearheads the European SF market). The investment strategy aligns with a plan to diversify investments between Europe (80%) and the rest of the world (20%).
Regarding its portfolio, ONEtoONE holds interests in 3 companies in France, 2 in Spain, and 1 in Portugal. Among the French entities are DSD, a specialized technology firm focusing on software for maintaining large industrial plants, SDEC, a manufacturer of equipment monitoring radiological emissions in nuclear and industrial sites, and the ASP Group, a conglomerate offering sharpening and coating services for cutting tools to industrial clients. The two Spanish companies –Cropsalsa & IBSA– cater to the food sector, crafting high-quality custom sauces, caramelized products, and preserves, primarily serving the HORECA sector. Finally, the Portuguese company, Effisus, whose investment was finalized in December, specializes in solutions for waterproofing ventilated facades and building sealing for clients maintaining high standards, operating primarily in Iberia, the UK, and MENA.
