Case Study: Private Equity Firm boosts valuation by showcasing innovation value with PA Consulting

Boosting a sale price by showing the value in the power to innovate

Private Equity Firm worked with PA Consulting to better demonstrate the value of innovation in a leading health and wellness retailer they owned. The challenge was to show potential investors that the business’s growth and future prospects were driven by strong innovation capabilities, helping support a higher sale price.

PA Consulting applied its innovation assessment approach across 54 attributes, quantified the impact of past innovation, and evaluated future growth potential from planned initiatives. The analysis showed that nearly 70% of revenue growth had come from innovation and identified £millions in additional value, helping boost the retailer’s valuation and likely sale price.
