V4C-backed Kom-Eko buys Lubelska Agencja Ochrony Srodowiska

Bill Watson, managing partner at V4C, told Unquote that V4C and its co-investors made an additional capital injection into the business through the holding company. 

V4C acquired Kom-Eko from Royalton Partners in November 2018. The GP deployed capital from V4C Poland Plus Fund, which held a final close on €91m in July 2019. The fund targeted €150m and had a €200m hard-cap. Additional equity was provided by co-investors, including the European Investment Bank and Alpha Associates, with the latter investing via the Alpha CEE Opportunity IV fund-of-funds.

Watson also said V4C will continue to look for further opportunities to expand the business through acquisitions, as well as organic projects.
