We look for companies that meet all the criteria below and with our diverse operating history, we remain opportunistic to investing in businesses outside our seven key industries.
COMPANY
- Profitable companies under $100 million in revenues
- Significant, organic and/or acquisition growth potential
- Leading market position with a defensible product or service that competes on more than price
- Value-based employee culture with a customer and goal oriented focus
MARKET
- Primarily Southeastern US but will consider anywhere in US
- Industry neutral
- Niche markets where the larger market participants are not as focused or cannot compete
OWNERSHIP / MANAGEMENT
- Interested in the following investment-stage scenarios:
- GROWTH investing to enable profitable, growing companies to fund internal growth and/or acquisitions
- BUYOUTS where owners are looking to exit completely
- RECAPITALIZATION providing partial liquidation of the owner’s equity position
- Interested in acquiring a majority or meaningful minority ownership stake, with board involvement
- A strong management team with a successful track record,
and looking to retain a meaningful ownership stake - Situations where we are typically the first institutional investor
