Brno-based company Seyfor, one of Europe's largest suppliers of ICT solutions, is expanding its portfolio before the end of the year. It has acquired 100% of the company KS - program, which focuses on HR information systems, and through its subsidiary Commander Services 100% of T-Cars System, a fleet management solution provider. Both companies are highly profitable with sales in millions of euro per year. The total amount of both acquisitions around 10 million euros. Thanks to these acquisitions, Seyfor will significantly strengthen its position on the market for business IT solutions, and Commander Services will become a top GPS monitoring and fleet management provider on the Czech and Slovak markets.

Seyfor has been in the enterprise systems market since 1990 and has delivered its solutions to 38 countries worldwide. It develops and delivers ERP, HR, POS and CRM systems, accounting and billing software, production management software and large, tailor-made solutions. The company also focuses on cybersecurity and data analytics and is active in the field of artificial intelligence solutions. It expects sales of around EUR 163 million this year. The new acquisitions are intended to help Seyfor grow further, including abroad, while strengthening the company’s position on the Czech and Slovak markets.

Following the acquisition, Seyfor’s systems will be used for 25% of all payslips in the Czech Republic and Slovakia

With the acquisition of KS - program in Vsetín, Seyfor will increase its market share in the field of payroll and HR systems for medium-sized and large enterprises. Seyfor’s corporate stable already includes the comprehensive VEMA payroll solution, and thanks to the integration every fourth pay slip in the Czech Republic and Slovakia will pass through Seyfor. Customers of KS - program include HP Tronic, Škoda Praha, Hyundai Motor Czech, as well as the Senate and the Moravian-Silesian region. 

“KS - program celebrated its 32nd anniversary this year and I and my colleagues are proud of the company’s results,” says Jiří Baroš, the company’s CEO and one of its founders. “The company services nearly 3,000 customers, mostly from large commercial entities, but also the national and local governments.” 

After the acquisition of 100% of the company, KS - program will continue to operate independently and benefit from great synergies, which will enable it to grow faster. The company will continue to operate under its original management. “The acquisition of KS - program strengthens Seyfor’s position as a leading supplier of HR and payroll systems on the Czech and Slovak markets,” says Martin Cígler, founder and CEO of Seyfor. “The company has an experienced management and a large team of experts, and we look forward to exchanging know-how and sharing market experience.”

Seyfor now monitors over 20% of vehicles using telematics GPS services in the Czech Republic and Slovakia

The second acquisition strengthening Seyfor’s portfolio is T-Cars System. The company operates technologically advanced SaaS solutions for electronic logbooks, GPS monitoring and complete vehicle fleet management. Last year’s revenue exceeded EUR 1,5 million and the company’s services are used by nearly 700 corporate customers in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Seyfor is acquiring T-Cars System through its subsidiary Commander Services, part of the highly successful Midsize Business division, with revenue well in excess of EUR 20 million. In addition to the development of its own ERP and other enterprise systems, telematics is also included in this division. As a result, companies in Seyfor’s portfolio will now monitor 20% of all company vehicles that use telematics and vehicle fleet management services.

“With the acquisition of T-Cars System, we will significantly strengthen our position on the highly competitive GPS monitoring and telematics market. The focus of T-Cars System perfectly complements Commander’s portfolio and not only gives both companies great potential for further significant growth in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, but also in other European countries,” says Martin Kudrna, Managing Director of Seyfor’s Midsize Business Division, under which Commander Services and T-Cars System fall.

In addition to strengthening its position on the current markets and preparing for European expansion, the acquisition also aims to create synergies through mutual cooperation and the sharing of technological and technical know-how for the development of both companies. The whole deal should also lead to economies of scale, i.e., cost savings due to expanded operations. This will specifically involve, for example, the purchase of hardware and closer integration of services used towards a larger number of customers.

Seyfor completes a great year and targets 30% growth and turnover of EUR 163 million

Seyfor has had another very successful year. In addition to the acquisition of KS - program and T-Cars System with a profitability of more than 25%, Seyfor has achieved excellent economic results in the long term. For the sixth consecutive year it expects 30% year-on-year growth with an expected consolidated turnover of around EUR 163 million.

“The year 2023 was another successful one at Seyfor and its end was rich in acquisitions. We are very pleased to have completed the challenging process of these two acquisitions this year, symbolically capping off a very successful year. We are looking forward to meeting new colleagues, the great synergies that both transactions offer and, especially, the further growth that I hope this merger will bring to all involved. I would like to thank all participants in this year’s successful acquisition marathon,” concludes Martin Cígler.
