BDO advises Everfield on the acquisition of aequitixx

A multidisciplinary transaction team from BDO AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, jointly led by Jan Odewald (Deal Advisory) and Christian Richter (Transaction Tax), advised the software group Everfield on the acquisition of aequitixx, a company specialising in cloud-based e-invoicing solutions.

Founded in 2008, aequitixx GmbH offers versatile solutions for automating the invoice processing and eliminating manual work through its self-developed platform. Aequitixx focuses in particular on companies in the healthcare sector.

Everfield, with its private equity sponsor Aquiline Capital Partners, is establishing a Europe-wide group of B2B software companies and is focused on acquiring providers of proprietary software solutions. As part of a ‘buy-and-grow’ strategy, Everfield aims to acquire its targets in full and sees itself as a long-term investor whose portfolio companies retain a high degree of autonomy but can draw on the support of the Everfield teams.

BDO once again advised its long-standing client, Everfield, on this transaction, providing comprehensive financial and tax due diligence services. BDO's experts also supported Everfield in negotiating the share purchase agreement from a financial and tax perspective.
