Exact is a Dutch software company that offers innovative cloud business software. Today, it supports over 550,000 SMEs and accountants. In addition, Exact has subsidiaries and offices in Europe, North America, and Asia. The company is owned by US-based private equity firm KKR.
The challenge
Exact has an in-house M&A team to execute its ambitious buy-and-build agenda. However, transactions vary in size and volume. In addition, the exact timing of deals is hard to anticipate. Therefore, when the team gets too busy, flexible support becomes highly valuable.
Our Collaboration
A Sweaver with a background as Investment Manager at Private Equity firm HAL investments complemented the in-house M&A team as interim M&A manager. She developed financial models and assessed the most crucial aspects of due diligence for a longer period of time.
