Investment Highlights
Proven Value Creation Platform
Custos has demonstrated strong operational capabilities with combined revenue growth of over 30% per year during the period from 2021 to 2025 on a pro forma basis. These results validate our active ownership model and operational expertise.
Scalable Consolidation Strategy
We are building a leading platform through strategic acquisitions in fragmented maritime and defence markets. Our active M&A pipeline targets additional vessels, Nordic/European shipyards, and specialized defence contractors with significant value creation potential.
Experienced Management Team
Our leadership team combines deep maritime sector expertise, transaction experience, and operational capabilities. CEO Per Olav Karlsen brings 40+ years with broad maritime expertise, supported by CFO Kenneth Hjertum (investment banking and management consulting background) and CLO Anders Pind (corporate law and maritime legal expertise).
Defensive Business Model with Growth Opportunities
Portfolio companies occupy critical positions within maritime infrastructure with recurring revenue streams, strong customer relationships, and limited regional competition. We benefit from favorable industry trends including fleet aging, offshore wind development, increased defence spending and tightening shipbuilding capacity in our markets.
Diversified Portfolio
Our operations span from North America and international offshore markets, providing geographic diversification and exposure to multiple maritime and defence end-markets.
