Mubadala invests in Looping Group

Looping Group has undergone a major capital reorganization as the founding management team, led by the President and Managing Director, assumed majority control of the company. Mubadala Capital entered the capital as a significant minority investor to support this management-led buyout, while the previous majority shareholder, Ergon Capital, fully exited its position. Bpifrance, a long-standing partner, also participated in the transaction to maintain its support for the group’s development. The deal was conducted primarily as a private, bilateral agreement and involved a complete restructuring of the group’s existing debt facilities. The previous "first out-second out" financing was replaced by a substantial unitranche facility provided by Hayfin, which also included a dedicated line for capital expenditures. This new financial structure is designed to provide the group with the stability and liquidity required to pursue further international acquisitions and enhance the profitability of its existing leisure assets.
