Providing Value Beyond Capital

Outstanding Team of Operating Leaders

Our team has acquired many businesses spanning many industries. We’ve seen many exits, and have grown companies dramatically for many years. We bring substantial value to Sponsored Transactions from new leadership of some companies to board leadership in others. Great leadership is paramount.

Driving Organic and Acquisitive Growth

There is no cookie cutter approach for growth. We prefer knowing a company and industry very well and approaching each Sponsored Transaction with a plan to dramatically increase shareholder value. Together with management, we contribute value from a board role to active corporate development execution.

 

We Invest our Own Capital

We invest a combination of our own equity capital along with outside capital from family offices, private equity firms and individuals. Our stakes in companies vary by transaction and depends on what values we bring to the table and what is best for long term growth.

Transactions Geared for Success

When we act as a principle in a Sponsored Transaction, we bring value far beyond the traditional role that some sponsors play. The right terms, strategic structure, and speed to closing are critical components for transactions that help companies achieve great success.
