Founded in 2011, Caburn Group is a global provider of connectivity for M2M/IoT business-critical applications to a number of industries such as telematics, payment terminals and lone worker safety. The group has built a market leading management platform to allow customers to manage their entire SIM estate and monitor all tariffs, types and regions through a single pane of glass.
The business operates in growing sector with compelling market forces leading to an ever increasing demand for M2M/IoT connected devices. The group has grown organically since inception and has secured a strong pipeline of opportunities to deliver further growth. The shareholders engaged us to help realise the value they had built whilst bringing the right strategic partner on board to accelerate the group’s growth profile, whilst maintaining the agile delivery model on which the business was built.
Our corporate finance team worked closely with the shareholders to understand their ambitions for the transaction. The team ran a focused marketing process based on extensive knowledge of the market and investor landscape.
The team project managed the sale process from start to finish, leading negotiations to ensure shareholder objectives were met, managing an efficient due diligence to minimise disruption on the business and driving the deal through to completion.
The industry knowledge combined with transaction expertise enabled the team to deliver a result that met the objectives of the Shareholders and ensuring the group will continue to thrive under the new ownership structure.
Grant Thornton has advised Caburn from the very early stages of the Business and provided insightful guidance and support every step of the way, and in particular throughout the transaction process. They were able to successfully manage the numerous stakeholders and secure an excellent result for the business and shareholders. Andy, Will and the team were instrumental in driving the deal to completion through their tenacity and deep technical knowledge. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for investment or exit.
