Context

Passman has restructured its shareholder base through a secondary management buyout (MBO), with the arrival of ActoMezz as a new shareholder holding a 13% stake, and the partial exit of Siparex and Rhône-Alpes PME Gestion. This transaction enables the three founding managers to strengthen their majority position, increasing it to just over 70%. ActoMezz has invested approximately €10 million in equity and mezzanine financing, while Passman has secured a senior debt facility provided by a pool of five banks, combined with a leasing line. This deal is driven by Passman's ambition to pursue internal growth and international expansion, supporting its clients abroad and developing new offerings to address the evolving market needs. Financial and legal advisory services were provided by Degroof Petercam Finance, Delsol Avocats, and Advance Capital.

It is worth noting that the fund Siparex / RhôNes-Alpes Pme took control of Groupe Passman through an LBO in 2010.

GROUPE PASSMAN, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2014, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the TMT (Tech, Media, Telecom) sector (14.4x).
