B&C helps CEPS with its £30.45m sale of ICA to Certania

26/02/2026

We're delighted to have helped investment company Chelverton Equity Partners PLC (CEPS) with the conditional sale of its subsidiary, ICA Group Ltd, to Certania Acquico-UK for an enterprise value of £30.45m. 

This transaction represents a significant portfolio adjustment for the industrial holding company CEPS PLC. ICA Group operates in building control, quality site inspections, and compliance consultancy, while the buyer is part of Munich-based Certania group, which specializes in Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) services.

The deal involves a total of £14 million in cash consideration payable to CEPS, covering equity and the repayment of outstanding loan notes. The disposal, expected to be completed in March 2026, aims to repay CEPS’s existing debt and provide resources for future growth.

Our thanks to the company and our wonderful clients at Spark Advisory.
