Rio de Janeiro, November 4, 2024 -- Vinci Partners
Investments Ltd. (NASDAQ: VINP) ("Vinci Partners,” “Vinci,” “the Company,” "we," "us,"
or "our"), the controlling company of a leading alternative investment platform in Brazil, announced today the signing and closing
of an agreement (“Transaction”) to acquire Lacan Ativos Reais (“Lacan”, “Team”), an alternative asset
manager with a leading franchise in the forestry segment in Brazil, with approximately R$1.5 billion in assets under management.
“We are thrilled to announce this transaction
and to welcome Lacan’s team to our platform. We have always regarded the forestry sector in Brazil as a prime opportunity for capital
deployment, and we believe it is highly complementary to Vinci's current product offering. As such, we couldn’t have found a better
team to help establish Vinci's presence in this sector. Lacan's long-term expertise and proven track record in this asset class set them
apart, and we are excited to offer our clients this new investment strategy. In addition, the Forestry vertical is already well developed
in other Latin American countries, and with the Team and strong track record of Lacan, we believe there is opportunity to expand the strategy
outside of Brazil,” said Alessandro Horta, Vinci Partners’ Chief Executive Officer.
Founded in 2000, Lacan is a leading Timberland
Investment Management Organization (TIMO) in Brazil, led by an experienced senior management team with a proven track record. The Team
manages closed-end investment vehicles with long-term lockups of at least ten years and a fee rate that exceeds the average for Vinci’s
Private Markets strategy, with approximately R$1.5 billion in assets through a flagship strategy that includes three vintages raised,
in addition to the fourth vintage currently in fundraising process.
Lacan boasts a robust investor base, with strong
relationships with high-quality institutional investors from Brazil and Europe. The strategy is committed to sustainability, managing
130,000 hectares of planted forests and preserved areas across four different states in Brazil. Furthermore, all operations are 100% FSC-certified,
with a focus on planting exclusively on cleared or degraded lands, reinforcing its dedication to responsible environmental stewardship.
“Brazil offers numerous competitive advantages
in the forestry sector, holding an impressive 8% share of the global roundwood market. The country's eucalyptus cultivation process is
not only unique but also the most efficient in the world. With all the key drivers in place, we see a significant opportunity for the
investment fund industry to engage in Brazil, which is currently underserved in this sector.
Vinci Partners Press Release NOVEMBER 4, 2024 | | |
At Vinci, we are positioning ourselves to become
a regional leader as this sector develops in the medium term. By combining our exceptional distribution capabilities with Lacan’s
investment expertise, we are poised to create a true regional champion,” said Luiz Augusto Candiota, founding partner and chairman
of Lacan.
“We are thrilled to join a leading platform
in Latin America, recognizing the immense potential to scale our strategy not only as a trusted partner of major forest-based companies
but also as a developer of carbon projects through both commercial forests and ecological restoration. With nearly two decades of in-depth
knowledge gained from investing in forest assets, we are excited to take our expertise to the next level.”
Transaction Overview
The Transaction will include an initial cash component,
with additional cash considerations through earnout structures over a period of up to four years, contingent upon fundraising and incremental
management fee revenues.
The Transaction was signed and closed on November
4th, 2024, and will start to impact AUM and Distributable Earnings numbers for Vinci in the fourth quarter 2024. The acquisition
of Lacan is expected to be immediately accretive to Fee Related Earnings per share and Distributable Earnings per share.
