Callista Private Equity

Callista Private Equity is specialized on acquisitions of loss-making Group subsidiaries, consolidated non-core affiliated companies and business units facing special situations. The company’s success is based on post transaction restructuring focused on sustainable profitability.

The experienced and internationally oriented team of experts of Callista Private Equity manages the acquired company and immediately focuses on the carve-out. The aim is to quickly generate first positive restructuring effects, enabling a further development towards sustainable profitability and a potential later divestment of the company. 

Our transaction focus can be summarized by the following deal characteristics: 

•    Loss-making operations with a negative EBIT margin
•    Takeover of a majority stake in the company
•    Survivability secured for 6 months
•    revenue of EUR 10m to EUR 200m

We immediately initialize carve-out measures to separate the company from the selling entity and start the restructuring of the company within the first 6 months after transaction. The first relevant effects are to be achieved within this period. Our operationally experienced industry experts continue to trim the company for sustainable profitable growth within another 18 to 30 months.

Callista Private Equity puts great emphasis on a speedy transaction. This is to provide you with quick relief and to speed up the implementation of vital restructuring measures. Hereby we increase the chances for a successful turnaround.
