Since 2015, diva\u2011e, with the support of EMERAM, has succee\u00added in buil\u00adding one of the leading provi\u00adders of end-to-end digi\u00adtal expe\u00adri\u00adence solu\u00adti\u00adons in the DACH market by merging a total of 12 compa\u00adnies. diva\u2011e has all major CX tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies (e.g. Adobe, Sales\u00adforce, SAP, Spry\u00adker, Scayle and Pimcore) and counts leading compa\u00adnies such as ALDI S\u00dcD, Alli\u00adanz, Bent\u00adley, E.ON, ZF Fried\u00adrichs\u00adha\u00adfen and FC Bayern Munich among its custo\u00admers. In the 2023 finan\u00adcial year, diva\u2011e gene\u00adra\u00adted sales of around 100 million euros with over 800 employees. <\/p>\n Buil\u00adding on this series of succes\u00adses, EMERAM comple\u00adted<\/strong> the fund\u00adrai\u00adsing for Fund II<\/strong> last year, from which further invest\u00adments will be made in the current year 2025. In the first quar\u00adter of 2025, ]init[ AG<\/strong>, a joint port\u00adfo\u00adlio company of EMERAM Capi\u00adtal Part\u00adners and Rivean Capi\u00adtal, comple\u00adted the acqui\u00adsi\u00adtion of the HBSN Group imme\u00addia\u00adtely after the turn of the year. Through this acqui\u00adsi\u00adtion of a leading specia\u00adlist for digi\u00adtal trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtion in the health\u00adcare indus\u00adtry, ]init[ AG was able to expand its holi\u00adstic port\u00adfo\u00adlio for end-to-end digi\u00adtiza\u00adtion beyond the public sector into the health\u00adcare indus\u00adtry. The acqui\u00adsi\u00adtion crea\u00adtes a leading digi\u00adtal specia\u00adlist with more than 1,500 employees at 18 locations. <\/p>\n Due to the contin\u00adued expan\u00adsion of the port\u00adfo\u00adlio compa\u00adnies, EMERAM also expects double-digit percen\u00adtage growth for the current finan\u00adcial year 2025.<\/p>\n Solid deal pipeline<\/strong><\/p>\n EMER\u00adAM\u2019s deal pipe\u00adline will remain robust in 2025. The reason for this is the clear invest\u00adment focus on high-growth compa\u00adnies that want to build on the three trend themes of digi\u00adtal trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtion, health & well\u00adbe\u00ading and energy tran\u00adsi\u00adtion and conti\u00adnue to grow.

We are proud that our port\u00adfo\u00adlio once again mana\u00adged to achieve an outstan\u00adding result last year. All compa\u00adnies signi\u00adfi\u00adcantly increased their turno\u00adver and profit.

The very good deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment is driven in parti\u00adcu\u00adlar by the strong perfor\u00admance of the growth buy-out segment, which compri\u00adses the largest share of fund invest\u00adments with a volume of EUR 254 million and ranks among the top 10 percent with a TVPI of 3.5x and DPI (Distri\u00adbu\u00adted to Paid-In) of 2.9x. EMERAM Private Equity Fund II, which was closed in 2024, conti\u00adnues the successful growth buy-out stra\u00adtegy.
