Episode notes
Organic Growth Drivers
- Constellation's organic growth is mostly due to acquisitions rather than internal growth.
- Higher organic growth recently is attributed to inflation and less attractive acquisition opportunities.
Private Equity vs Constellation
- Private equity firms typically hold acquisitions 5-8 years, unlike Constellation's permanent ownership.
- This shorter horizon leads to different risk-return expectations and may affect relationships with shared clients.
Leadership Talent Acquisitions
- Acquiring businesses also means acquiring experienced leadership teams.
- These leaders bring valuable expertise and operational knowledge across multiple business units.
