Our Criteria and Approach
Novus has a flexible investment philosophy and are not constrained by rigid investment criteria.
We specialise in industrials and business services sectors serving a B2B customer base.
We are happy to target businesses that are not operating at their full potential and which face internal or external challenges arising from market, financial, ownership or management issues.
We are drawn to businesses thriving in expansive markets, as they offer substantial opportunities for both organic growth and strategic consolidation.
We look to partner with experienced and driven management teams, either that exist within the business today or who we find to join our investments.
We highly incentivise management teams to drive successful, sustainable outcomes.
We specialise in partnering with businesses that generate EBITDA in the range of £500k to £5m.
We are comfortable with a range of deal types including MBIs, MBOs, and non core carve-outs.
While our preference lies in taking majority stakes, we are also open to exploring minority investments.
