Health on the rise

Aware of this movement, a group of businesspeople in the blood bank sector sought the advice of JK Capital in 2016. We went hands-on and proposed the design of a new group, by structuring governance rules and a company assessment for future funding.

We have advised the group since the first acquisition in upper São Paulo State and the first funding, two years later, with 2B Capital, an arm of Bradesco that financed new acquisitions.

In 2019, we followed the entry of Proparco, a French development agency, which consolidated the second wave of acquisitions, totaling 15 companies acquired and positioning the group as the largest in volume of transfusions in the Southern Hemisphere.

A milestone in education

Based on a valuation project, the institution implemented improvements and, starting from a margin of BRL 6.7 million (21.5% over NR) in 2016, it reached BRL 12 million (28% over NR) in 2018.

The improvement in performance, the strength of the brand and its leadership position sparked the interest of YDUQS. With the company completely prepared, the maintainer ended up participating in an emblematic transaction for the sector and inaugurating a new phase of YDUQS multi-brand strategy.

Moving results

Growth through acquisitions was an important part of the company’s IPO project.

Taking care of the entire process, from the determination of the value of the target companies to the closing of the definitive contracts, JK Capital advised Sequoia to investigate the best purchase options.

The first of these was NowLog, in October 2019. Its strong presence in the Northeast, covering 9 states, was essential for Sequoia’s positioning in the region. In January 2020, the acquisition of TA Logística was completed, which added BRL 280 million to the company’s revenue and enabled it to start operating in the transportation of fractional loads in air and road modes.

The taste of success

JK Capital advised the entire sale process of the company, in a project that involved the Brazilian leadership, the Italian shareholders and the Israeli buyer.

After carrying out a valuation using the Discounted Cash Flow method, we have launched our extensive networking and involved 35 potential investors. Of these, 13 were interested in the business and 5 presented offers.

The deal came to a total value of BRL 170 million (approximately 10x EBITDA) and the final buyer was Frutarom, one of the 10 largest companies in the world in the segment of flavorings and fine ingredients, which can increase its penetration in the Latin American market.

Our results come from our experience, quality of the relationship and the depth of our analysis.

We hit the road and get acquainted with the reality of the market.

We learned that it is always necessary to be close in order to listen, but that it is equally important to speak the truth that we find in the figures.

With solid data, we fine-tune expectations, we connect all the dots and design creative solutions.

We go beyond the spreadsheet and powerpoint and we put our hands-on from the beginning to the closing of the deal.

It’s a deal: we really like this expression. Our track record shows great results.

All of them are a function of always being at your side: the performance, partnership and result side.

Result means a Function of

standing by your side
