Fast-growing Managed Service Provider Your.Cloud acquires Manchester and Exeter-based HDUK

Dutch-managed service provider (“MSP”) Your.Cloud expands into the UK with the acquisition of HDUK, a leading cloud services provider to the accountancy sector.

Dow Schofield Watts provided corporate finance advice to the shareholders of HDUK on their sale to fast-growing pan-European MSP, Your.Cloud. The team comprised Gregg Pendlington and Ross Thomas from our corporate finance team in the North West.

Marking Your.Cloud’s first acquisition in the UK, they aspire to become the leading MSP in Europe and are planning further buy-and-builds in the UK.

John Reynders, CEO at Your.Cloud said, “HDUK is one of those examples where years of focus pays off to become a leader in a specific segment. Their position in the accountancy sector in the UK is very impressive and can only come from building the trust and knowledge needed to build services that are aligned with the needs of the sector.

In speaking with the HDUK team, we quickly concluded that we would be a very good fit together, sharing a lot of the values when it comes to entrepreneurship, innovation and dedication. Having that shared vision on what is needed to become successful and to grow is what makes HDUK and Your.Cloud such a great fit and a combination set up for success”.

Gregg Pendlington, Partner at Dow Schofield Watts, added, “We are very pleased to have been a part of this successful transaction. It was a pleasure to work with the Shareholders and Matt Healey (CEO of HDUK), and we wish him all the best on his future journey with Your.Cloud”.
