OMMAX advised LEA Partners on the acquisition of easybill, a leading SaaS invoicing tool provider in Germany, helping SMEs in e-commerce and other industries automate their invoicing process and ensure full regulatory compliance.

OMMAX conducted commercial and digital due diligence. This comprehensive analysis entailed an examination of easybill’s business model, its market dynamics and competitive landscape, and an evaluation of the company's digital capabilities. Additionally, detailed digital value creation potentials were assessed.

The company operates in a fragmented market driven by an increasing number of micro and small businesses. Furthermore, e-invoicing penetration rates are rising as companies are increasingly required to implement e-invoicing solutions to comply with regulatory standards. easybill distinguishes itself with precise positioning as an easy-to-use and intuitive cloud solution, successfully differentiating from the competition. This results in a very loyal customer base that has been primarily built via product-led growth. 

Toni Stork, CEO and partner at OMMAX, highlights: "easybill impressed us with strong product-led growth and a loyal customer base in an attractive and growing market. Our analyses show a high potential for future growth driven by digital value-creation levers. We congratulate LEA Partners and the easybill management team on the acquisition."

OMMAX supported us during the due diligence to strengthen our perspective on the asset, highlighting customer loyalty and digital capabilities. The team identified concrete digital value creation initiatives to drive future growth that we plan to implement together."
