Description

Founded in 1907, Metalcam is one of the main Italian operators in the forging of steel components sector. Metalcam produces forged special steel and ferroalloys weighing between 500 kg and 40 tons mainly for the oil, energy, and mechanical sectors. Metalcam is among the few operators in this sector to have an integrated production cycle: steel mill and forge; it operates with 4 production sites, one of which is in Germany, and employs approximately 270 employees. The stake was sold in 2014.

Investment thesis

Metalcam had excellent growth prospects, high profitability, and cash generation. It was a leading company with an integrated production cycle, a good competitive positioning in a fragmented sector with significant entry barriers, a high level of specialization, and long-term relationships with customers. Clessidra Private Equity's objective was to consolidate the top-line growth trend, preserve margins, and pursue possible external growth opportunities (acquisition of Valforge).
