Looking to Diversify Beyond U.S. Equities? M2C Is Going Public!

When in 1992 a group of students decided to establish a company with the aim of providing services, probably none of them knew that three decades later, the company would stand on the threshold of the Prague Stock Exchange and head to America. Mark2 Corporation, M2C, has moved from a simple Facility Management (FM) to a high-tech ecosystem of services, which today operates in 13 countries in Europe, is expanding to the Middle East and the United States, and is preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) that you will soon be able to use.

Looking to Diversify Beyond U.S. Equities? M2C Is Going Public!

From broom and key to data and cameras

Nowadays, M2C is no longer just about cleaning or security guards, because more than a decade ago, the management embarked on the digitization of business activity, thus securing its position as a technology leader. 2013 marked the initial turning point of the future direction with the launch of M2C Space, a remote building management center that allows clients to manage operations in real time. Following this successful project, a few years later came Welcomo, an electronic reception solution that can effectively automate the entry of visitors.

The consequence of the digital transformation later proved to be very beneficial, which, according to the current boss and owner Matej Bárt, saw the necessity of several acquisitions, as the demand for M2C solutions significantly exceeded the company's logistics capacity. A key decision was the purchase of Good Sailors, a company employing developers with disabilities who, in most cases, have remarkable talents.

After a long journey, M2C now has its own and at the same time highly complex software system, creating tools for optimizing the movement of people, managing warehouse space and security monitoring. But the ambitions don't end there, the company is aiming even higher.

IPO with the aim of expanding overseas

By going public, M2C is strategically thinking about the future, specifically plans to strengthen its position in America, where the company sees significant potential. In addition, the capital funds raised will also go to other acquisitions, because M2C is aware that repeating the same great success abroad, without an extended team and background, would definitely not be possible.

Investment perspective

Overall, it can be assessed that the M2C business model is significantly stable, as evidenced above all by the progress made during the financial crisis or the Covid-19 pandemic, when a considerable number of competing companies went bankrupt. In line with the company's performance during troubled periods, its financial condition is inextricably linked. The last decade has been marked by a 5-fold increase in turnover, which is currently approaching the crucial threshold of CZK 5 billion.

Investors may also be interested in the philosophy of the supply chain. M2C handles everything internally within the company, which ultimately allows it to maintain the highest possible quality and efficiency of the services provided. [1]

An opportunity for investors

M2C shares will be traded below ISIN CZ1008000823, while the IPO itself will take place in the price range of CZK 250 to 300 per share with a maximum subscription volume of 800,000 shares. In terms of volume, it is not a record-breaking IPO, but it is undoubtedly an interesting investment opportunity to enter a growth company with a technological vision and a strong foundation, with which you also have a chance to diversify your portfolio in the future.
