Criteria

Our Investment Criteria

We seek established U.S. businesses with durable cash flow, consistent profitability and clear opportunities for growth.

$5M–$50M Revenue

Established businesses with a meaningful operating history and a proven offering.

$1M–$7M EBITDA

Profitable businesses with earnings that can support long-term ownership and investment.

Established U.S. Businesses

Our acquisition focus is on lower-middle-market businesses across the United States.

Consistent Profitability

We look beyond a single strong year to understand the durability of earnings and cash flow.

Recurring or Repeat Revenue

Long-standing customer relationships and repeat demand help provide a foundation for growth.

Strong Market Position

We seek businesses with a clear role in their markets and a differentiated offering.

Understanding the whole business

Financial performance is a starting point. We also consider customer relationships, management capabilities, operational needs and the owner’s goals. A potential acquisition should make sense for both the business and the people behind it.
