The Company

30 years of insights, experience and innovation, delivering peace of mind.

Verisure is a world leader in monitored security solutions, shaping the global Personal Security space. Operating under two brands (Verisure and Securitas Direct), the Company serves more than 3.1 million customers in 15 countries across Europe and Latin America. From 2000 to 2018, the Company has grown its customer portfolio at an average of 17% annually – growing every single quarter, in every single country. The group is #1 in 9 of its top 10 markets and is on average 3.2 times larger than its nearest competitor across its footprint.

Verisure’s core offering is a monitored security system that incorporates sensors (i.e. motion, fire, humidity) and a central control panel that are all remotely monitored by Verisure on a 24/7 basis. Verisure first responders investigate incidents, contact customers and dispatch guard, police, fire brigade and ambulance response whenever appropriate. In addition, the company has moved to offering lifestyle-oriented ‘connected’ functionality and services (‘smart home’), expanding its value proposition and addressable market. These services are enabled by new product & service innovations around video functionality, light control, temperature control, elderly care, etc.

Entrepreneurial and pioneering spirit

The business has enjoyed consistent double-digit top and bottom line growth over the past 20 years as a result of its highly entrepreneurial and innovative approach to business. For example, Verisure was the first company in the industry to introduce voice-based SMS/GSM transmission, the first to use “two way voice” (enabling a direct conversation with the consumer via the control panel), the first to add image verification (to assist in assessing risk and in dramatically reducing false alarms) and the first to enable home control via a mobile application. This kind of innovation has led to Verisure enjoying industry leading customer retention.

Growth opportunity

Verisure invests over half of the EBITDA from its customer portfolio in growth every year, and has been growing non-stop, in every one of its geographies, throughout the financial crisis. This is partially the result of very low penetration rates of monitored alarm services in Europe and Latin America, providing significant opportunity for continued growth. Verisure also continues to expand internationally and has opened offices in Peru, Italy, the UK and Germany in just the last few years. Our successful growth has been and will continue being dependent on Verisure Talents. Our People are our business.

Verisure is majority-owned by leading private equity firm Hellman & Friedman and management. Our sponsors have invested heavily in accelerating the company’s innovation and talent pipeline. Following years of growth in this industry supported by strong dynamics, the company has now embarked on a transformation under a new high calibre leadership team in order to position itself for the next phase of growth and as the leader in the market.
