Client Case

goetzpartners advised Afinum, one of the leading medium-sized investment companies in the German-speaking market, as an M&A and commercial advisor. The investment company planned to divest the Garz & Fricke Group to SECO, an Italian embedded computing company. Thus, the objective was to outline a possible equity story, specifically independent growth options and synergy potentials with SECO.
Our Corporate Finance and Management Consulting teams worked closely together to quickly realise a commercial vendor due diligence and a business plan.
Thanks to the combined approach, goetzpartners was able to highlight the excellent strategic fit between the two companies in just two months, achieving an outstanding result and an attractive purchase price for its client.
goetzpartners’ team has been pivotal to structure the operation and assist us in negotiating our partnership while following the right momentum. Throughout the process, goetzpartners has demonstrated outstanding commitment to the transaction and to the company’s interests.
