Who We Are
We are a private investment firm with a long-term investment horizon that invests in lower middle market companies across different sectors.
Investment Philosophy
Buy & Hold
Lower Middle Market
We are long term investors seeking to buy & hold the assets we acquire for an extended period of time.
We are experts in identifying and managing companies in the $1mm - $5mm EBITDA range.
We invest using long-term patient capital which allows us to ride any economic storms.
Control Investments
We seek to make only control investments, opting where possible to always purchase more than 80% of a business.
Evergreen Funding
We invest for cash flow which means we do not need to exit investments to generate returns.
Cash Flow
Investment Strategy
Our primary objective is to provide our investors with consistent cash returns over extended periods of time. We do this via a two-fold strategy; firstly our primary focus is always on sustainably growing the revenue base of our anchor investments, secondly we aim to achieve further growth by scanning for viable acquisitions to add to the anchor.
Organic Growth + Growth By Acquisition = Our Investment Strategy
Investment Critera
Sectors
We are sector agnostic but look to make investments in businesses and industries that are "recession proof" and "technology proof".
