      KPMG Deal Advisory & Strategy acted as the exclusive financial advisor to to the owners of Easoft in the sale of the company to EG A/S, a leading provider of digital software solutions in the Nordic region, backed by Francisco Partners.

      Client

      Easoft Group Oy, founded in 2012, is a leading Finnish SaaS provider specializing in project management solutions for the construction and renovation industries. Easoft’s modern software ecosystem helps clients optimize resources, streamline operations, and enhance collaboration, making it a key player in the AEC sector.

      Easoft's sales has tripled in just two years, while maintaining strong profitability. Last year, the company's sales grew from €4.9 million to approximately €8 million. This growth has been driven primarily by organic expansion, further boosted by the successful acquisition of Maplet Oy, which contributed additional revenue.

      Buyer

      EG is a market-leading provider of vertical software solutions across the Nordics. The company serves customers across both public and private sectors through its three divisions: Construction & Property, Healthcare & Citizen Welfare, and Industrials and Trade. Founded in 1978, EG employees more than 2,500 employees and is headquarted in Copenhagen.

      EG was acquired by US-based private equity firm Francisco Partners in 2019. Francisco Partners is a leading global investment firm that specializes in partnering with technology and technology-enabled businesses.

      Transaction rationale

      This strategic acquisition expands EG's construction software portfolio in Finland, enabling it to serve small and medium-sized companies more effectively.

      Easoft represents EG's seventh acquisition in Finland over the past five years. With this addition, EG will have a team of over 300 employees in Finland. Easoft is also well-established in Sweden and will continue to serve the Swedish market with its solutions.

      KPMG involvement

      KPMG Deal Advisory & Strategy led a highly competitive process engaging software sector focused financial sponsors and selected strategic buyers. KPMG supported Easoft throughout the transaction by providing guidance on deal strategy, identifying and engaging potential buyers, managing the due diligence process, structuring the transaction, and negotiating the contract terms.

      This transaction highlights KPMG’s proven track record of delivering successful outcomes and driving highly competitive processes in the software sector. It further solidifies our position as a trusted advisor in the technology sector and marks our 8th technology sector transaction year-to-date.

      A leading advisor in the AEC Software sector

      This transaction marks the Finnish team's second deal in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) software sector this year. Earlier in March, we advised construction software player Zeroni on its sale to EG. Additionally, KPMG network members in other countries have developed an extensive track record in the sector.
