Approach
We invest in partnership with management
We partner with founders and management teams that are passionate about the growth prospects and strategic plans for their businesses and want to invest alongside us in the next phase of growth.
We are not operators
Our expertise is in capital sourcing and structure, acquisition strategy and execution, and general business approach. We rely on our management teams to run operations day to day and offer support on an as-needed basis. Our intention is to maintain the strong culture that has driven the company’s success to date and to become a trusted partner and advisor to our management teams.
We are focused on the service sector
Niche markets within the service sector often provide multiple avenues for growth acceleration. Tailwinds from long-term secular growth combined with an ability to add locations, complete add-on acquisitions, and invest in existing operations creates a powerful combination for building a business. In addition, service businesses tend to have other attractive investment characteristics such as high margins, low cyclicality, low capital intensity, and broad customer diversification.
We believe acquisitions aRE a powerful lever for value creation
Many markets within the service sector are experiencing rapid consolidation, often led by large private equity firms backing scaled platforms. While larger companies can lead this M&A activity, local or regional business owners may not have the tools or size necessary to participate in the same way. We understand the playbook for these large consolidators and aim to put the pieces in place for our companies to capitalize on this market dynamic.
