Context

Groupe Chevrillon acquired a majority stake in Arcado, replacing the private equity firms MBO Partenaires and Amundi PEF, which had backed the group since 2018. The company's leaders, as well as the historical minority investor Carvest (Credit Agricole), reinvested in the transaction. This change in ownership reflects management's desire to partner with a "patient capital" investor to pursue the consolidation of PGI-certified charcuterie and deli producers, following the successful integration of "Aux Produits Saugets" in late 2020.

ARCADO, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2022, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, representing a LOGIN discount to the 10.1x average currently observed in the AgriFood sector.
