Eaton Square would like to congratulate Credit Clear Limited on its recent acquisition of ARMA Group.
ASX listed technology company Credit Clear (ASX: CCR) has acquired the Australasian debt collection service company, ARMA Group Holdings.
伊顿咨询 principals Nick Weston and Maurice Spicer advised and provided transaction support to Credit Clear.
Founded in 2015, Credit Clear Limited provides a white labelled communication technology platform used for receivables management that helps customers manage their payments through a flexible and modern user experience. Credit Clear manages customer accounts across a range of industries including transport, financial services, insurance, government, and utilities. The Company is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia with offices in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
ARMA Group Holdings is a market-leading specialist provider of contingent debt recovery solutions, outsourced accounts receivables and litigation services, servicing a large corporate client base across Australia and New Zealand. ARMA has a robust customer base of about 400+ customers acquired across new industry sectors – consumer, education, parking – while significantly diversifying Credit Clear’s exposure within current targeted sectors – insurance and commercial.
The acquisition of ARMA and the addition of its acclaimed senior sales team enhances Credit Clear’s geographic presence and broadens its industry coverage. It also strengthens the financial and operational profile of the combined group as the Credit Clear technology will significantly increase the operating leverage of ARMA.
