Hilco backs Habitat management team in buyout from Ikano Group

Jamieson Corporate Finance, the independent corporate finance advisors, acted for the Management team of Habitat, the UK based furniture retailer, on their incentivisation arrangements as part of a management buyout, backed by Hilco UK Ltd.

JCF was brought in at an early stage in the transaction process. With multiple bidders and a complex transaction the team provided advice to Management, led by Chief Executive Mark Saunders, on numerous scenarios until Hilco were granted exclusivity.

“Thank you to Ian and the team for all your help and advice, we would have been lost without it,” explained Chief Executive Mark Saunders following the transaction.

JCF sees Retail as being a buoyant sector for the near future as investors attempt to take advantage of its ideal position as the economy exits the current economic cycle.
