Business Services I Industry Spotlight

Q3 2017

Across all sectors, escalating purchase multiples are driving buyers to evaluate buy and build strategies in order to take advantage of synergies and multiple arbitrage.

Commercial and Industrial Services

Commercial and industrial service providers promote their cost-effective niche services to companies that wish to outsource and thereby focus on their own core competencies. Annual contracts in lieu of episodic projects drive recurring revenue and more attractive valuations.

Value added resellers continue to emphasize the addition of services to complement the sale of hardware. Wrapping recurring revenue around product sales creates additional customer stickiness and drives additional value.

Many dealers and service providers were founded twenty to thirty years ago, and now owners are of retirement age and seeking exits, leading to consolidation of dealer networks.

Distributors seek scale to create leverage with suppliers and drive reductions in overall logistics expense. Additionally, distributors that provide local delivery seek to optimize their distribution network by adding stops to existing routes and creating greater density.

Litigation Services

Technology has been driving M&A, as formerly labor intensive matters can be outsourced to providers with technology-based solutions.

Proliferation of data with paper and electronic files continues to drive growth in litigation services industry and in eDiscovery businesses.

Litigation services industry is estimated to have more than 500 participants eventually dropping to 300, with $8 -10 billion of total revenue.[1]

Industry consolidation is occurring at a rapid rate, driven by the desire to expand into other service offerings with technology-based solutions for collecting, storing, and processing data.

Professional and Human Capital Services

Consulting companies continue to benefit from increasing business complexity in many markets. Certain consulting markets are capitalizing on increasing regulatory and compliance requirements that drive the need for specialized services.

Training providers are leveraging technology to provide cost-effective solutions in specialized areas. Many of these companies are successfully leveraging their expertise and relationships to drive recurring revenue.

Staffing and recruiting companies continue to leverage technology to improve efficiency and client experience.

Marketing Services

Businesses have an increasing awareness of the importance of customer experience, and providers are investing heavily in digital commerce and marketing analytics to capture spend.

Service providers have created niche technology-enabled offerings that would be expensive for companies to replicate for their own use.

Forestry Resources, Inc. (“FRI”) is headquartered in Fort Myers, Florida and is a leading producer and supplier of mulch and other landscaping products in South Florida.

The Company processes and

packages a variety of mulches, barks, soil, and stone out of two production facilities located in Fort Myers and Webster, Florida. The Company sells its products through direct sales and five company-owned retail stores in Florida.

FRI serves a broad customer base of retailers, distributors, and

commercial landscape, maintenance, and nursery professionals.

a portfolio company of

Sell-Side Advisor

Suwannee Lumber Company (“Suwannee”), a competitor in an adjacent market area and a portfolio company of Blue Wolf Capital Partners, was interested in growing its mulch and ground cover business through acquisition. While Suwannee had a strong position in north Florida, FRI provided it with two additional plants in south Florida from which to more efficiently serve growing south and central Florida markets, and FRI provided Suwannee access to key customers.

A number of private equity firms have targeted landscaping products and services as a platform opportunity due the benefits of scale and the fact that the markets are so fragmented and dominated by small local operators

Both strategic and sponsor-backed industry consolidators will continue to be acquisitive to gain access to new geographic markets, diversify service offerings, and develop recurring maintenance contracts with commercial clients

Growing and scaling will also be critical to battle pricing pressure in an increasingly competitive industry

Key valuation factors include:

Degree of recurring client engagements (dependence on new construction)

Size – larger firms trade at higher multiples Degree of customer, supplier, or end market concentration Level of value added or differentiated service offering Management/ownership continuity

Importance of procuring raw material

Harder in South Florida and areas without ample timber

Scarce supply places a premium on value of timber contracts

Material from land clearing is typically cheaper than virgin timber

Some regions have two ground cover spreading seasons

Larger producers will sometimes have customer concentration with Lowes, Home Depot, and large home improvement or lawn and garden retailers

Smaller producers often lack the balance sheet and capital to purchase bagging and palletizing equipment and therefore struggle to compete on price

Publicly Traded Share Performance[1] Valuation Commentary

Key Industry Opportunities and Challenges

Landscaping Products Landscaping Services

Landscaping services are increasingly being considered an important means of raising property and resale value

Geographic location and weather events dictate services that can be offered and affect revenue mix

Service providers are affected by quality labor shortages generally, and specifically shortages of temporary foreign workers caused by the current regulatory environment

Material costs, such as fertilizer and herbicide, have consistently increased over the past several years and represent a larger percentage of industry participant sales

Many landscape contractors remain unlikely to raise prices and risk losing business of more price conscious consumers, resulting in modest margin compression

Q3 2017

M&A Activity increased slightly in the third quarter, and exceeded deal value in 3Q 2016.

Average middle market transaction multiples have rebounded in 2017, though this metric is largely driven by industry or business services segment mix. Given the breadth of the types of businesses that comprise business services, the range of transaction multiples can be quite large.

Multiples are a function of numerous factors including:

Customer concentration

Customer stickiness

Episodic versus recurring revenue

EBITDA margin, which is often a proxy for the value add component of the product or service offering

Overall U.S. Private Equity Deal Flow ($ in billions)

U.S. Business Services Private Equity Deal Flow ($ in billions)

U.S. Business Services Private Equity Exits ($ in millions)

U.S. Private Equity deal flow was down during the third quarter of 2017 on a volume basis and up on a deal value basis

– HPS Investment Partners and Equity Group Investments agreed to acquire Waste Industries USA

– Sycamore Partners agreed to acquire Staples Inc. for $6.9 billion

– Bain Capital acquired a stake in Surgery Partners Inc. which will use the funding to acquire National Surgical Healthcare

Private equity activity started off slow in 2017, yet market fundamentals point to strong deal flow in the year ahead as fundraising has continued at a rampant pace

Business Services private equity disclosed capital invested increased YTD 9/2017 when compared to the same period last year

− 374 deals closed for a total disclosed value of $97 billion during the first three quarters of 2017

The number of private equity exits within Business Services decreased slightly YTD 9/2017 when compared to the same period last year, though the median deal size increased substantially
