AVIACTION acquired by ARTÁ CAPITA

SPAIN Aerospace, Naval & Defense / MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) REV 10M - 30M EUR

Context

Artá Capital has reached an agreement to acquire 100% of the share capital of Aviaction from Buenavista Equity Partners, marking the latter’s full exit after a six-year holding period. Since 2019, Buenavista transformed the business from a niche cabin specialist (AIRE) into a diversified MRO leader through the strategic acquisitions of Air Clean Textil and Servitec. This successful buy-and-build phase allowed Aviaction to double its revenues to nearly €27 million by the end of 2024. The strategic rationale for Artá Capital is to utilize Aviaction as a primary platform to further consolidate the fragmented Spanish aircraft maintenance sector. The firm intends to support the existing management team, led by CEO Juan Antonio Carrasco, in expanding technical capabilities and opening new workshops. This transaction represents the fourth investment for Artá Capital Fund III. The deal was supported by Deloitte Corporate Finance (Financial & Debt) and Eversheds Sutherland (Legal) for the buyer, while Greenhill Mizuho and Addleshaw Goddard advised the seller.

AVIACTION, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2024, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the Industry & Manufacturing sector (11.1x).
