Miura has just joined Tekman Books, a leading company in Spain in the development and marketing of innovative educational programmes for infant, primary and secondary school students. We analyse the investments made in the last year.
Miura's investment strategy
Miura based in Barcelona invests in companies with growth potential in any sector of activity except finance and real estate and does so through expansion capital, MBOs and recapitalisation.
Portfolio investments
It currently has 9 investments in its portfolio. The latest operation, in Tekman Books, closed it just a month ago. This company, which develops and markets educational programmes, will rely on Miura's help to grow internationally, mainly in Latin American countries, and will also strengthen its presence in Spain and promote the development of new innovative educational programmes for infant, primary and secondary school students. The company, which is currently present in more than 800 schools, expects to close 2016 with sales of around €10M.
The other two companies that have received investment from Miura this year are the purchase of the 25% from Martin Navarro, citrus production and marketing and Chereau in the trucking industry.
The particularity of the French company Chereau is that by joining with the Spanish company SOR, which it bought last year, it has created a new group 'The Reefer Froup'.
Miura helps its investees to grow and enables them to realise acquisitionsThe Visuality Corporation, for example, was able to buy Falcon Industries last year, thanks to the support received by Miura.
Divestments
Miura has completed several successful divestments. It recently received the Ascri award for the best expansion capital transaction between 2010 and 2015 in BC, a provider of mortgage process outsourcing and registry verification management services.
Miura entered BC Group In December 2010, and after five years as a shareholder, the company doubled its sales to €100M and tripled its EBITDA to €15M. In those five years, BC has been able to realise 10 acquisitionsThe company has also launched new business lines, which now account for 33% of its revenues.
In addition to the Bc Group, Miura has successfully divested Gescobro and Noa Visual Group. For its participation in this company Noa won the Ascri award in the category of medium-sized companies in 2013.
