Integral service around a transaction

M&A activitiesDuring 2012, we have seen several operations within the group offers and purchases sector such as offerum, groupalia, ooferton, etc. Some operations have been international and others of concentration and acquisition of market share.

Offerum el operador más activo

Durante el 2012 Offerum ha participado en 3 acquisitions corporativas:

- Ha comprado el 100% de Buytheface ha Feliz Ruiz y Miguel de Lucas.

- Ha comprado el 100% de la filial italiana de KBG Deals.

- Ha comprado el 100% de Viavip a Arturo Moreno.

"Offerum está inmerso en la carrera de crecimiento del sector y ha optado por la vía de las adquisiciones como vía más rápida para ganar cuota. El sector de ofertas es un sector que se augura que está empezando a consolidarse y todos los "players" saben que solo unos pocos quedarán. Cada uno está buscando su hueco", señala Diego Gutierrez de ABRA INVEST experto en el crecimiento de Pymes.

Inversores extranjeros también han tenido presencia

The company Livingsocial ha participado en los movimientos del sector con la adquisición del 50% que le quedaba de Letsbonus. Con esta compra LIvingsocial alcanza el 100% de participación de la compañía que ha comprado a los fundadores y otras personas físicas.

Oooferton compra Zoomzebra entrando en Alemania

El portal Oooferton tras aumentar su facturación en un 280% en 2011 y adentrarse en el mercado francés con su plataforma de 'liveshooping', llega la hora de nuevos retos.La empresa fundada por Luis Krug, fundador también de Redcoon, ha comprado Zoomzebra, una popular web alemana de ventas online especializada tanto en B2B, con clientes entre las plataformas de cupones más conocidas, como en ventas al consumidor final.

"La internacionalización es el principal motivo de estas adquisiciones. Resaltaría la manera que ha realizado Oooferton el pago de la adquisición de la empresa alemana. La transacción se ha realizado mediante canje de acciones, es decir, Oooferton ha adquirido el 90% de las acciones de Zoomzebra a cambio del 1,2% de las acciones de la primera. De esta manera, no hay consumo de liquidez de la compradora para poder hacer frente a los retos de futuro y deja la ventana de liquidez para cuando se venda todo el grupo en el futuro", puntualiza Diego Gutierrez.

IntelFin consists of a cognitive system, which, through the application of advanced analytical technologies, facilitates the automation of investment and financing decisions in the field of non-listed companies and especially SMEs in high-growth sectors.

The information related to these companies is characterized by their lack of transparency and heterogeneity; thus, it is necessary to develop an advanced analysis which is as much predictive as prescriptive and is developed in a natural language custom, suitable to obtain greater clarity and knowledge of the investment scope.

The IntelFin system focuses especially on analyzing the variables that define and influence the competitive environment of a sector and the positioning of a company, analyzing their influence on future value creation. Therefore, IntelFin supports strategic decision-making to senior management by resolving questions such as:

¿What are my competitors' priorities, strategies and expansion plans? Who's my competition? Which competitor is most likely to grow at a higher rate?
Which areas of activity/business models will receive the most investment? Which sectors are most attractive to investors?
Which companies are going to experience the most growth in the near future? Which companies are most likely to receive investment or be acquired?
