Polyconcept Enters into Definitive Agreement to be Acquired by Charlesbank Capital Partners
Polyconcept announced on Monday that it has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by an investment group led by Charlesbank Capital Partners, LLC, a middle-market private equity firm. Equity for the transaction will be provided by Charlesbank, management and certain other investors. Additional terms of the agreement were not disclosed. There will be no management changes as a result of the Charlesbank acquisition; it will remain business as usual for all of Polyconcept's customers around the globe.
This acquisition marks the end of a successful 11-year partnership with Investcorp. The 2005 acquisition, which consisted of PF Concept in Europe and Leed's in the United States, marked the formation of Polyconcept.

"We are excited to forge a new partnership with Charlesbank, which has a long history of joining forces with management teams to grow their businesses.
