Founded in 2015 by Bruno Janvier and Fabrice Poupard, Cohérence is a group specialised in the creation of tailor-made websites and natural referencing (SEO).
Following a competitive process launched in May 2022, DDA & Company advised on the reorganisation of Cohérence’s capital and the entry of Arkea Capital as a minority shareholder.
The transaction allows the two founding partners (Bruno Janvier and Fabrice Poupard) to become majority shareholders, the historical non-operating shareholders (Christian Janvier, Jérôme de Metz and Patrick Maillard) to sell all or part of their stake and two key managers (Sébastien Codet, Finance Director, and Laury Brunoy, Production Director) to become shareholders.
DDA & Company also advised on the financing of the Transaction through senior debt provided by a banking pool including LCL as arranger as well as Crédit Agricole and Banque Populaire Grand-Ouest (BPGO).
