Owners, Not Managers

We don't manage businesses from a distance or through monthly board meetings. We take full ownership and get involved in the day-to-day decisions that actually move the needle.

Keep What Works, Fix What Doesn't

Good management teams stay. Broken processes get fixed. We don't change things just to make our mark - we change things that actually need changing.

Growth with Operations, Not Leverage

Revenue growth and margin improvement drive our returns, not financial leverage. We'd rather own a business that doubles profits than one that doubles debt for growth.

What We Do

We acquire established, profitable businesses generating up to $50M in annual revenue. Our focus is on companies with solid fundamentals that can benefit from additional capital, operational improvements, or market expansion.

We're not turnaround specialists or financial engineers. We look for businesses that are already working well but could perform significantly better with the right resources and strategic focus.

Capital Access

We can move quickly on acquisitions and provide growth capital without the approval processes that slow down larger firms.

Hands-On Operations

Our team has actually run businesses, not just invested in them. We understand P&L management, supply chain optimization, and customer acquisition.

Long-Term Ownership

We're not flipping companies. We hold our businesses, which allows for substantial operational improvements and market expansion.

Acquisition Focus Areas

We target high-growth sectors where our experience and network can create meaningful competitive advantages and drive exceptional outcomes.
