EOWIN STRENGTHENS ITS GROWTH AMBITIONS WITH RENEWED SUPPORT FROM EURAZEO, TROCADERO CAPITAL PARTNERS, AND BPIFRANCE

Following a first sponsorless transaction completed in May 2023, Eurazeo, Trocadero Capital Partners, and Bpifrance are reinvesting in Eowin to support the Group’s continued development.

A recognised player for 35 years in industrial document management, Eowin assists companies in creating, managing, and enhancing their content. From design offices to technical writing, including automation, classification, and archiving, the Group offers reliable and innovative solutions.

Since 2023, Eowin has experienced sustained growth, driven by the momentum of French industry active in its market segments, particularly in the nuclear sector, and by successful diversification into the tertiary sector. In this context, Eurazeo, Trocadero Capital Partners, and Bpifrance are carrying out a new operation aimed at refinancing senior debt, the convertible bonds issued in 2023, and supporting the management’s shareholding increase. The three investors thereby reaffirm their confidence in the Group, enabling it to continue both its organic and external growth in its core businesses: consulting and document engineering in the nuclear, aerospace, telecommunications, and tertiary sectors, both in France and internationally.

Eowin’s historical banking partners (Crédit Lyonnais, Caisse d’Epargne Ile de France, and Banque Populaire Rives de Paris) are also continuing their support by providing a line of credit dedicated to external growth.

Following a successful carve-out from the Amplexor group in 2020 by its management and the acquisition of the consulting firm Xdemat in 2022, Eowin now employs 740 people in France across ten sites in six regions (Île-de-France, PACA, Normandy, Brittany, Occitanie, and Rhône-Alpes) as well as in Luxembourg.

Marc Lestrade, President of Eowin, stated:

“We are very pleased with the recognition and renewed trust shown by Eurazeo, Trocadero Capital Partners, and Bpifrance in Eowin, as well as the quality of their support. They continue to provide us with the means to achieve our ambitions – addressing the major challenges of the nuclear sector while continuing to expand into other industries, both in France and abroad.”

Valérie Ducourty, Managing Director Eurazeo, Corporate Financing, added:   

“We are proud to support Eowin over the long term. The level of performance achieved and the Group’s growth outlook confirm the strength of its business model. Eowin’s technical expertise and experience are key assets in helping its clients grow, particularly amid the nuclear industry’s resurgence.”

Nicolas Gagnez, Partner at Trocadero Capital Partners said :    

“Since 2023, we have been impressed by Eowin’s growth trajectory, driven by strong commercial momentum and successful market diversification. The Group has demonstrated resilience and an ability to accelerate, thanks notably to the quality of Marc Lestrade’s leadership team. We are proud to renew our support for Eowin alongside Eurazeo and Bpifrance and to continue accompanying the Group through this new phase of development.”
