Process

We understand the time-sensitive nature of a sale process and will respond promptly to all acquisition opportunities. We carefully select the businesses we evaluate and do not move forward unless we have a high level of confidence that the company fits with our objectives and core competencies. We understand that in addition to price, a seller also values speed and certainty of execution.

After reviewing summary information or speaking with management, we quickly assess whether a company represents an appropriate acquisition opportunity and will respond promptly. Assuming the opportunity meets our Investment Criteria, our objective is to quickly provide the seller with a preliminary expression of interest.

Strategic & Tactical

We are committed to maintaining the unique culture and identity of each acquired company. While we will provide financial and strategic resources to the senior management of the acquired business, each portfolio company is operated as an autonomous, stand-alone entity.

Although we typically do not participate in day-to-day operations, we are actively involved in strategic planning and major operational and financial decisions. We will also offer assistance in areas such as the identification and pursuit of add-on acquisitions, review of financing relationships and recruitment of additional management personnel, if necessary.

People Focus

Our approach to human capital is a unique aspect of our investment and value creation processes. With extensive experience in human resource outsourcing, executive leadership and talent management, our team adopts a holistic approach to supporting all HR aspects of a business acquisition.

We strongly believe that every employee within a company is important to the overall success of the enterprise. At each portfolio company, we seek to align our objectives with those of management and will establish attractive financial incentives to achieve mutually determined milestones and benchmarks.
