Acquisition of Belcom247 by Indigo Telecom Group

HMT LLP provided buy-side advisory services to Indigo Telecom Group on the acquisition of Belcom247 

Indigo is a leading provider of multi-vendor managed and project services to Tier 1 and 2 telecom network operators, equipment vendors, multi-national corporations and government clients. The business specialises in the design, planning, build, supply, management and support of UK, European and global telecommunications networks.

HMT first advised on the MBO of Indigo in 2016 supported by Maven Capital Partners and YFM Equity Partners. Maven and YFM invested £12 million into the business including additional funds to support a buy and build strategy.

The acquisition of Belcom adds a range of additional services and geographical reach that will significantly strengthen Indigo’s capabilities, customer offering and market position.

HMT undertook financial due diligence on this transaction and provided financial modelling services.

“We are delighted to have advised Indigo on their first acquisition as part of their buy and build strategy. Belcom has built an attractive customer base over the years and the acquisition of the business will strengthen Indigo’s offering.  This transaction is testament to the quality of HMT’s integrated corporate finance offering as we provided Indigo with financial and tax due diligence as well as building a robust financial model. We are looking forward to working with them again in the future.”
