Stated investment criteria
What Bestport Private Equity says it buys
Read from Bestport Private Equity’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.
| Enterprise value it states | £3m to £40m1 |
| EBITDA it states | £3m to £40m1 |
| Transaction types | Management buyout1 |
| Founded | 20053 |
| People listed on its team page | 52 |
A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Bestport Private Equity states that it will take either a controlling or a minority stake. The team figure counts the people the firm shows on one team page, so it is a floor rather than a headcount: firms that split their team across tabs or load it in pages will read low. Nothing here is a commitment by Bestport Private Equity to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.
