Investment Approach

Strategy

We are long-term investors seeking to partner with owners to augment and enhance their success over time. We seek control investments in cash flow-generating businesses with competitive differentiators and long runways for growth. We value owners that have demonstrated integrity with stakeholders and are willing to invest their time into passing on their experience and expertise to equip their company for the next phase of success.

Value Creation

We spend a great deal of time understanding what resources, processes and values have driven a company's performance. Drawing upon decades of experience evaluating business quality and observing both successful and failed strategies in companies across various industries, sizes and situations, our goal is to identify and execute on growth and efficiency opportunities that preserve a company's competitive advantages.

Value creation strategies include:

  • Expanding into under-penetrated distribution channels/partners or geographies
  • Procuring lower cost labor and supply inputs
  • Introducing adjacent products and services to increase customer stickiness
  • Driving density and scale to improve productivity and unit economics
  • Fusing technology into processes to maximize efficiency and customer satisfaction

Why Partner with Us

We are differentiated from private equity and strategic buyers in the following ways:

  • Streamlined underwriting and transaction execution process ensures speed and certainty of closing
  • Flexible with seller's involvement in both operations and ownership level post transaction
  • Long-term, permanent buy-and-hold mindset
  • Preference to keep company's name, brand and employees in place
