Rockpool-backed EA-RS Group secures £40m refinancing

EA-RS Group, a provider of intelligent, sustainable, and compliant fire and security systems and services, secured a refinancing package from Ares Management Credit Funds and Barclays Bank.

The senior debt package will provide EA-RS, backed by private equity sponsor Rockpool Investments, with significant capital to deploy into both identified and future acquisitions. Following investment from Rockpool at the start of 2021, the Group has since successfully acquired and integrated eight companies. EA-RS Group will continue to develop their ‘One Solution’ offering, furthering their growth and geographic reach through acquisition.

BDO provided refinancing due diligence to EA-RS Group in support of the refinancing process.
