Our strategy
Nils Feldmann
Chairman, Palmstone Group
Our intention is to hold exceptional companies indefinitely. Without a predetermined exit date, management teams can make decisions for the next decade, reinvest with conviction, and compound the value of the business over time.
We are not building around financial arbitrage. A Palmstone platform should give specialist companies the capital, technology, distribution, purchasing power, and shared capabilities to compete with much larger organisations while preserving what made them successful.
Our in-house Digital Lab develops proprietary tools, automation, data infrastructure, and operating systems for Group companies. The objective is practical: accelerate growth, improve service, increase efficiency, and expand operating margins from within.
The acquisition platform is designed to create specialist operating groups, beginning with a strong foundation company and expanding selectively around it.
Establish a narrow operating thesis, acquisition criteria, management model, and financing framework.
Partner with a durable, management-led company that can serve as the nucleus of a broader operating group.
Add complementary companies to create regional density, broaden recurring service lines, and deepen technical capability.
Strengthen distribution, technology, reporting, talent, procurement, and capital structure across the platform.
Initial consolidation thesis
Palmstone is developing a long-term platform around established service companies supported by regulation, recurring compliance requirements, and operational necessity.
Services customers are required to purchase or cannot operate without.
Established management, recurring revenue, and durable customer relationships.
Growth through investment, digitalisation, and selective complementary acquisitions.
