Count Group unveils recent acquisitions as part of equity partnership model
BusinessCount has revealed three strategic acquisitions across NSW, Queensland and South Australia.
Count has expanded and merged its current operations in three states, reflecting the company’s growth momentum and investment in successful businesses.
The company announced significant expansions of two successful Count Equity Partner firms to “build on their shared values and local knowledge”.
Count Gold Coast acquired two local businesses, Harrison & Harrison and MJG Partnership, in Queensland and Northern NSW, which would take the expanded business to generate total annual revenues of circa $18 million.
Count noted that it would hold 69.2 per cent equity in the firm on completion and that these client-focused businesses would combine its “deep experience and expertise with the benefits of reach and scale.”
In addition to this, Count Adelaide also announced the recent merger with advisory firm Johnston Grocke.
Hugh Humphrey, chief executive of Count Group, said the expansion would ensure more Australians had access to expertise and help when needed.
“Our strategy is to partner with professional firms that will grow in size and scale, leveraging the strength of our national group without losing the personal, trusted relationships that their clients rely on,” he said.
“Through our unique approach to equity partnership, we work alongside talented principals to grow the business, expanding its capabilities and reach while staying true to its community roots.”
