Service Businesses
From Local Operators to Institutional-Grade Enterprises
Our Service Business Framework
Acquisition
Precision
We don’t acquire service companies just because they generate revenue — we target businesses with embedded demand and fragmented operations where value is being left on the table. Our focus is on assets that are undervalued due to founder dependence, poor financial controls, or lack of scalable systems. This ensures immediate scope for EBITDA expansion post-acquisition.
Institutionalisation & Value Creation
Post-acquisition, we install the structures that drive step-change improvement in performance. This includes building management depth, implementing real-time financial visibility, and embedding technology-driven processes that increase efficiency at scale. We don’t just stabilise operations — we unlock margin improvements and raise valuations by transforming companies into institutional-grade assets.
Engineered
Growth
With a stabilised and professional platform in place, we activate aggressive growth strategies. Our marketing infrastructure drives predictable client acquisition, while long-term contracts and diversification strategies de-risk revenue streams. At the same time, we expand services and geographies in a way that compounds cash flow and increases enterprise value.
The Result
When Leeson Group acquires a service business, it is transformed into an asset that delivers compounding returns. EBITDA expands as operational inefficiencies are eliminated, margins improve through professionalisation, and revenues stabilise under long-term, recurring contracts.
This isn’t incremental uplift — it’s a structural re-rating of the business. Companies that were once fragile, founder-dependent operators become institutional-grade platforms with reliable cash flow and enhanced enterprise value. For investors, the result is clear: multiple expansion, consistent distributions, and exposure to a portfolio of service businesses engineered for scale and resilience.
