About
SHD AG is a German company specializing in IT solutions for the furniture and kitchen industries, focusing on integrated ERP systems that optimize business operations and resource planning for various enterprises.

The company has undergone strategic developments to enhance its offerings, maintaining a focus on integrated ERP systems. Notable leadership includes CEOs Dean Pfoutz, Dietmar Meding, Eric Hölper, Marc Linker, Stephan Röder, and Steven Dilley.
SHD was the target of a significant acquisition in June 2017 when Bregal Unternehmerkapital acquired a 67. 55% stake from Elvaston Capital Management, which, along with the management team, reinvested in the company. The company has successfully completed 2 deals since its inception, with the most recent deal occurring on June 26, 2017.

In the most recent financial year of 2022, SHD reported a revenue of USD 83. 86 mn and an EBITDA of USD 18. 80 mn. The company's revenue model operates on a B2B basis, incorporating subscription-based services and partnerships within the furniture and kitchen sectors.
Clients implement SHD's ERP solutions through contracts that specify service levels, software access, and ongoing support, ensuring clarity in associated costs for the services chosen. The flagship products, including the ERP system and planning software, are integral to these agreements, with pricing reflecting the scope of implementation and client needs. SHD AG plans to leverage recent funding to further develop its product offerings and expand into new markets. The company is currently designing innovative products to enhance its ERP systems, targeting releases within the next 12 to 18 months.
Additionally, SHD aims to penetrate markets beyond the DACH region, focusing on specific countries in Northern and Eastern Europe by 2025. The acquisition by Bregal Unternehmerkapital in 2017 is expected to support these growth initiatives, providing the necessary capital for product development and market expansion.
