Thanks to the team’s work, The DMC Group is now the undisputed market leader in an attractive and resilient niche. There remains substantial potential for growth within the company, and we are happy to hand it over to Lion Capital. Thanks to its unparalleled industry contacts and expertise, we believe Lion will successfully add to the business’s strong existing foundations. For Bluegem, the sale of The DMC Group is the first exit from our Fund II’s portfolio and generated a Cash-on-Cash of 2.7x and an IRR of 55%,” Marco Capello, Bluegem Founder and Managing Partner.
