moving beyond private equity

SAVCA, as the industry representative for private equity and venture capital in Southern Africa, extended its reach even further during the past year. I am pleased that our organisation, which this year celebrates its seventeenth anniversary, now counts 89 private equity fund managers as full members, and has 50 fi rms registered as associate members.

The increasing diversity and scope of the SAVCA membership is refl ected in this 2015 SAVCA Members’ Directory, which lists funds across the spectrum of size, geography, industry and nature of funding provided. The modest but steady rise in the number of SAVCA’s full members over the past year bears out the view that the industry continues to recover, and that more managers are tapping into the institutional funding available for private equity and venture capital in Southern Africa and in neighbouring regions. SAVCA continues to promote this alternative asset class to investors and to expand its reach to potential Limited Partners.

Notable, too, is growth in the number of SAVCA’s associate members, who fulfi l essential advisory functions tothe private equity and venture capital market. Legal, compliance, corporate fi nance, structuring, audit, tax, environmental and other services are represented by associate members listed in this directory. They collectively signify the depth of talent and expertise available to the local industry.

The bringing together of a record number of members into this single publication is symbolic of SAVCA’s role in connecting industry players and providing a unifi ed industry voice.

In fulfi lling its mandate of promoting the private equity and venture capital industry in Southern Africa, building its membership base, covering legal and regulatory developments affecting the industry and producing high-quality research and training for its members, SAVCA over the past year generated numerous networking, information and training sessions for members, key stakeholders and institutional investors.

SAVCA also has published a range of research publications touching on subjects such as the economic impact of private equity, institutional investors’ views on African private equity, remuneration in the local industry, the three-decade history of private equity in South Africa and a compilation of case studies from private equity portfolio companies which demonstrate the positive impact that the industry has on the economy, environment, society and governance.

SAVCA’s representatives have spent hours researching legal and regulatory developments and meeting with senior policymakers and legislators on key matters affecting the industry. SAVCA has communicated with members and stakeholders across a variety of platforms and at regular intervals on industry developments.

This work is underpinned by SAVCA’s board of directors, formally selected by members and representing a diversity of fund managers. These fourteen directors, thirteen of whom are non-executive, commit substantial time to serve the industry with integrity and passion.

We thank all our members and the broader stakeholder community for their support of SAVCA and for their role in cultivating an industry that is a force for good, through active stewardship and positive impact on businesses and economies, and by ensuring sustainable returns for investors.

REMARKS: Ethos Private Equity is a leading South African private equity investor. We were instrumental in establishing the asset class in the region, concluding the: fi rst buy-out (1984); fi rst public-to-private deal (1992); fi rst BEE deal (1994); and, fi rst international fund raising (1996). We are currently investing Ethos Fund VI, with R7,9 billion of committed capital.Our team consists of 24 dedicated investment professionals with over 150 years of combined private equity experience. Ethos distinguishes itself in the South African market by combining fi nancial discipline with value-enhancing strategies, in partnership with portfolio company management teams. This approach has resulted in an enviable track record of superior returns over our 30-year history. We specialise in control and joint-control acquisitions and expansion capital, in medium-to-large businesses in South Africa and selectively in sub-Saharan Africa. To date, we have made 103 investments and successfully exited 90.Our proven record of understanding businesses and effecting meaningful operational and strategic change has built Ethos’ reputation as a constructive, valued equity partner. Ultimately, we build better businesses. For more information, visit www.ethos.co.za.

Ethos’ investment conviction is grounded in meticulous

analysis, creative insight and practical solutions accumulated

over the months prior to concluding a transaction.

Most importantly, experience has taught us that the pace

of performance is fast-tracked when we have constructive

collaboration with executive teams during this pre-deal phase.

Accordingly, Ethos - together with AutoZone’s management

- tested strategic concepts and initiated plans to accelerate

growth long before we announced our investment into the

business - South Africa’s largest privately-owned aftermarket

auto parts retailer and wholesaler.

Why are we so passionate about disciplined pre-deal analysis?

Because our role is to anticipate and influence the field of play

from the onset.

We achieve this by collectively crafting a high-performance

playbook focusing on execution agility, leadership capacity,

business scalability, sustainability and growth. This thoughtful,

creative and pre-emptive game plan is our differentiator and a

principal reason why business managers choose Ethos when

they aspire to lift their game.

After all, we play to win.

INVESTMENT PREFERENCES

Sustainable Investments Minimum investment: R20 millionMaximum investment: R100 millionWilling to syndicate: YesAverage current investment size: R50 Industry preference: Renewable energy, energy effi ciency, waste and water managementIndustries excluded: Unbankable technologyStage of investment: Growth, project expansion and development stage capitalAll stages except: Seed capital, start-up, early stageMinimum and maximum equity usually taken: Generally 20% to 60%Geographical preferences: South and Southern Africa

REMARKS: Metier has a track record of outstanding performance in private equity, with team members having concluded over 80 deals and having achieved a greater than 30% annual internal rate of return over the past three decades. It has an active and effective culture and is ideally positioned to partner investors and portfolio companies alike. We believe that private equity requires the deep involvement of experienced managers putting their own skills, energy and capital at risk alongside institutional investors.

The Capital Growth Funds focus on taking substantial equity positions, including control, in medium sized to large companies that have strong management teams, an earnings history and good growth prospects. Investments are targeted in sectors set to benefi t from demographic trends such as population growth and increased urbanisation, and the accompanying consumer spend from the emerging middle class and which are advantageously exposed to the multiplier effects of rising capital spend on infrastructure and increasing intra-regional and international trade.

The Lereko Metier Sustainable practice has garnered traction since its inception with a total of funds under management now approaching R1.5 billion. The primary fund, being Lereko Metier Sustainable Capital (LMSC), targets investment in energy effi ciency, renewables, water and waste management businesses and projects supporting the region’s development objectives and environmental commitments. Primarily with the support of its investors LMSC has created two co-investment vehicles which augment LMSC’s holdings in the assets the fund is committed to.

REMARKS: We focus on small to medium-sized enterprises that make up the “missing middle” market in Africa. Musa believes in an active management approach, which combines fi nancial capital with human capital development, strategic planning, strict governance structures and operational support at the executive level to maximise investment. The fi rm tends to limit its active portfolio base to allow its senior team to become fully engaged in value creation at the operational level, which is facilitated by our controlling positions taken in investments. We have a holistic investment philosophy which emphasizes fi nancial returns to investors, sponsors, stakeholders and the communities in which the portfolio companies operate. This approach has resulted in a net IRR of 20% for the Musa Kingdom Fund (“Fund 1”) and a partially realized 17% IRR in the Musa Kubu Fund (“Fund 2”), which is vintage 2008.
