Smartphoto group UK acquisition of System Insight, active in event and souvenir photography

Smartphoto group announced the acquisition of System Insight Holdings, a UK company specialized in event and souvenir photography under the commercial name Image Insight. With this acquisition, Smartphoto adds a new component to its growing B2B division. This acquisition will join Smartphoto's B2B division alongside TopFanZ, a previously acquired company specializing in fan merchandise in the sports and entertainment sector. Event and attraction photography is a growing market worldwide, driven by the increasing popularity of experience-based leisure activities. This acquisition is the next step in the expansion of a new B2B segment, which is complementary to Smartphoto group's current ‘Smartphoto' and naYan segments. System Insight generated revenue of € 6m and significant EBITDA margin (we expect between 12 and 20%) in FY24, underscoring its strong position in the event and souvenir photography market. We maintain our € 38 TP and BUY rating.
