CongruityHR (“Congruity” or the “Company”) is a leading outsourced human resources (HR) solutions provider offering HR, compliance, payroll, tax administration, employee benefits, and workers’ compensation and safety services to small and medium-sized businesses predominantly in the southeastern U.S. via a professional employer organization (PEO) and administrative services organization (ASO) model. Congruity has been a portfolio company of RFE Investment Partners (“RFE”) since 2021.

SITUATION

Congruity and RFE seek to bring the Company’s services to other small and medium-sized businesses across the United States while maintaining local relationships and brand value. To build on its organic growth momentum, Congruity identified a targeted acquisitions strategy to identify companies that can benefit from a partnership with a national, funded platform while maintaining a sense of autonomy in their market.

ENGAGEMENT

RFE and Congruity engaged G2 Capital Advisors, LLC (“G2”) as the exclusive buy-side advisor to identify acquisition targets that share Congruity’s approach to the industry. G2 built a holistic view of the PEO landscape and conducted market outreach to grow Congruity’s brand awareness and find like-minded PEOs that support a national reach through deep, local relationships.  

The process spurred the successful acquisition of Tampa, FL-based PEO JanusHR (“Janus”), a comprehensive, personalized HR services provider based in Tampa, FL. Janus brings PEO expertise and strong regional relationships to bolster Congruity’s growing presence in Florida and Southeast U.S. JanusHR was founded and led by Daneen Gurney, who previously had a 20+ year career with Oasis Outsourcing, where she started as one of the first sales representatives and quickly rose to District Manager, Regional Vice President, and then VP of Strategic Partnerships. Gurney managed eight (8) markets, opened over ten (10) offices, and helped manage several acquisitions for Oasis. Under Gurney’s leadership, JanusHR achieved significant market share in the Tampa Bay region.

“We are excited to welcome Daneen and the Janus team to the Congruity family. They bring a high level of industry expertise to our organization,” said Darrin Hunter, Congruity CEO. “The addition of JanusHR brings great value to Congruity’s portfolio and expands on our commitment to legacy brands, relationships, and people.” 

“Daneen and Janus stood out in our market conversations as an excellent fit with the Congruity strategy. Sharing the Congruity narrative with her and cultivating a relationship over time to ready her for a partnership revealed an exciting strategic fit and business opportunity. This is a great credential for the Congruity model and enhances our continued work in the market. We are glad to support Janus’ partnership with Congruity and are energized to realize more successes together in 2023,” shared Kerri Ford, Managing Director at G2 Capital Advisors.

G2 Capital Advisors is pleased to present its Consumer & Retail, Industrials & Manufacturing, Technology & Business Services, and Transportation & Logistics market updates. Click to download the full reports, including commentary and analysis on Q4 M&A and market trends within our core focus sectors. 

Consumer & Retail Market Trends:

While retail foot traffic rose for practically all categories, it wasn’t enough to counter the effects of inflation combined with deep holiday discounting. Inflation was up 6.5% from year-ago levels – while lower than the peaks seen earlier in the year, it was enough to dampen consumer confidence heading into holiday shopping. Moreover, food prices continue to climb, driving consumers to devote more of their dollars to necessities rather than discretionary goods.

Industrials & Manufacturing Market Trends:

After two years of pandemic-fueled disruption, a host of new challenges arose in 2022 for packaging businesses as increased inflation and interest rates, the war in Ukraine, and commodity prices hitting historic highs, impacted the pace of M&A activity. Despite the challenging macroeconomic environment, the appetite among private equity groups and strategic buyers for well-established packaging companies remained high.

Technology & Business Services Market Trends:

The US economic outlook remains unclear with a general negative sentiment. Increasing interest rates, supply chain issues, and geopolitical uncertainty are putting pressure on multiples in many segments of the market. Value creation and a focus on fundamentals will be key themes in 2023 with businesses and investors intent on how they build value organically and inorganically in line with core growth theses. For many privacy equity firms, the near-term focus will likely be on add-on acquisitions that enhance existing portfolio companies.


Transportation & Logistics Market Update:

As transportation and logistics providers navigate an uncertain economic and freight environment, operators in California are faced with an additional challenge as Assembly Bill 5 California (“AB5”) takes effect following numerous legal battles. AB5, which became state law in 2019, requires companies to reclassify many independent contractors as employees, prohibiting trucking companies from working with owner-operators and 1099 drivers in California. In an environment where a driver shortage persists, eliminating a strategy that provides trucking companies scalability and flexibility could have lasting implications across the freight market.
