Mackman Group Sustainability Actions

Published ESG and ROCE article

For years, EBITDA has dominated the M&A valuation landscape. But as businesses, investors, and regulators evolve, so too do the metrics that drive deal value. Two increasingly critical indicators—particularly in 2025 and beyond—are ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance and ROCE (Return on Capital Employed). They reflect a deeper shift in what acquirers are looking for: long-term sustainability, ethical risk management, and capital efficiency.

Highlighted ESG in valuation

ESG was once dismissed as a box-ticking exercise, it’s now a frontline issue in risk mitigation, employee retention, supply chain resilience, and brand trust. In private equity and trade deals alike, ESG credentials can now boost multiples, accelerate deal timelines, or serve as red flags for deal abandonment.

Advised on ESG measurement

Invest in measurement and transparency – Don’t rely on anecdotes. Collect verifiable data on emissions, governance, DEI, staff turnover, and supply chain risk. Include ESG and ROCE narratives in pitch decks – Translate these metrics into a clear story: “We deliver performance and purpose.”

Discussed governance readiness

When private equity firms invest in a company, the excitement is usually around growth, profit, and performance. But few realize that the real test of a PE investment often comes at exit - when the firm prepares to sell or take the company public. The numbers look great, but once due diligence begins, cracks in governance start showing. Missing board minutes. Inconsistent compliance filings. No documented risk framework. ESG data that can’t be verified.

Published branding and regulation piece

The UK Court of Appeal’s recent ruling against Oatly’s use of the slogan ‘Post Milk Generation’ has sparked an important conversation about the relationship between branding, regulation, and innovation in fast-evolving sectors like plant-based foods. This decision raises questions about fairness, consumer empowerment, and whether current regulations align with the need for sustainable progress.
