This reflects tailwinds across the HVAC market as extreme weather increases demand for cooling. Partners Group acquired DiversiTech, a manufacturer and distributor of parts and supplies for HVAC units, and PremiStar, one of the largest commercial HVAC services providers, in 2021 through its direct private equity program. Since then, DiversiTech has seen revenues increase 60%, with PremiStar revenues doubling over the same period. The companies have delivered EBITDA growth of 14% CAGR and 22% CAGR respectively. This strong financial performance reflects tailwinds in the US HVAC market. In particular, the increasing occurrence of extreme weather conditions is highlighting the importance of HVAC system maintenance to maximize unit performance and efficiency. Other tailwinds include the rapidly ageing installed base of HVAC units, the need to upgrade units to be more energy efficient, and the rise of building automation solutions. Leveraging its investment platform, Partners Group has recognized best practices across both DiversiTech and PremiStar to implement transformational value creation plans that are designed to support future growth. This includes investing in operations, supply chains, and technology, as well as executing selective add-on acquisitions. Wolf Scheider, Head of Private Equity, Partners Group, says: "Across our HVAC portfolio, we are seeing organic, disciplined growth. As heat waves become a defining challenge of how we live and work, demand for HVAC parts and maintenance is rising. Our portfolio companies are essential to helping communities and enterprises adapt to these conditions, with meaningful growth runway ahead as value creation initiatives mature."
