With a flexible financing package of 20 million euros, ELF Capital is supporting the management buy-out of the minority shares in the Pacoma Group as well as its future growth. The company from Eschwege is one of the world’s leading suppliers of hydraulic cylinders with more than 50 years of experience and additional locations in the US and China. The financing structure is as long-term as it is flexible and ensures that the management once again has full control over the company. The team around Pacoma CEO Phil Liao will continue to expand the business on the solid basis now achieved and participate fully in the future growth. With this transaction, ELF Capital once again proves to be a long-term and reliable financing partner for owner-managed companies. In Germany alone, ELF Capital has already completed a total of four transactions in the past twelve months. ELF founding partner Christian Fritsch said: “Together with the management, we have found a clever way to optimally align the shareholder interest and financing structure in a short period of time. Pacoma and its management also got the necessary flexibility and leeway to fully capture its future growth and value potential. This is a creative transaction for management. We look forward to the partnership journey with Pacoma.” Phil Liao, CEO of Pacoma Group, said: “We are very pleased with the flexible financing solution offered to us by the experienced ELF investment team. ELF’s partnership approach, professionalism, speed and efficiency have impressed us greatly. ELF is the right choice – now we are back in full control of the business to successfully manage Pacoma’s future growth.”
