SEVETYS acquired by EURAZEO

FRANCE Health Providers / Outpatient Care / Vet Clinics EV 500M - 1.5b EUR

Context

Eurazeo acquired a majority stake in Sevetys from Ardian, which had previously financed the group's initial rapid expansion. The transaction included a EUR250 million equity injection from Eurazeo to fuel a new phase of aggressive growth. The investment thesis focuses on consolidating the highly fragmented French veterinary market, which is protected by specific regulatory barriers regarding clinical governance and independence. Sevetys positions itself as a sovereign French alternative to global giants like IVC Evidensia and AniCura. Under Eurazeo's ownership, the group successfully completed approximately 100 acquisitions in 2022 alone, expanding its footprint into new regions such as the Rhone Valley and Grenoble.

SEVETYS, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2022, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the Healthcare & Pharma sector (14.8x).
