Sector Experts
We play in areas that we know well from years of focused investing.
We apply the full breadth of our knowledge and networks to advance the interests of our portfolio companies in the business services, consumer services, industrial, and technology sectors.
Company Size
Company size can be defined in many different ways. We do not have size thresholds carved in stone.
We typically find that companies with EBITDA greater than $1 million are a good fit.
Investment Structure
We tailor deal structures to accomplish a company’s objectives, rather than force deal terms to fit an arbitrary investment box.
We seek to invest $5 to $50 million in equity for majority or minority ownership stakes.
Company Attributes
While the relevant metrics are different for every business, we believe that great, enduring companies can only be built on solid fundamentals.
We look for enduring growth opportunities, recurring revenue, strong cash flow generation, and exceptional management teams.
