Frequently asked questions
What investment stages and ownership stakes does PROM12 typically target?
PROM12 targets profitable, established companies with revenue up to €50 million and EBIT between €0.5 million and €3.0 million — squarely in the small-cap buyout stage. It takes flexible equity stakes between 35% and 95%, with a stated preference for majority control and typical governance rights. The firm does not engage in venture capital, minority passive investing, or startup-stage financing.
Which sectors does PROM12 explicitly focus on, and which does it avoid?
The firm focuses narrowly on IT, IT services, and software businesses within the DACH region — Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Confirmed subsectors include managed IT services (via List + Lohr), Atlassian platform services (via Communardo and bitvoodoo), and broader enterprise software and IT consulting. PROM12's website provides no indication of interest in non-tech sectors, nor does it list explicit exclusions beyond an ESG screening policy that claims to filter out investments not aligned with responsible investing principles.
