Our Approach
Principal Investing
Our approach to private equity is to identify direct investment opportunities that can be enhanced by our firm's involvement. The firm invests its partners' own money. It also selects appropriate co-investors, optimizes the capital structure and arranges other necessary financing.
Phase 1 - Evaluation
The firm’s evaluation process involves identifying the investment thesis, analyzing the company's competitive position, assessing risk, evaluating management, and valuing the investment. Our due diligence process is part of this phase.
Phase 2 - Structuring
These include meeting the company's financing needs, aligning constituent interests, motivating management, mitigating downside scenarios, enabling follow-on investments, balancing elements of control, and planning for exit.
Phase 3 - Maximizing Value
The firm does not get involved with day-to-day management. The firm seeks to refine the company's strategy, identify and attract additional members of management, assist in acquisitions and joint ventures, arrange financing and help with operational issues, if necessary.
Phase 4 - Exit
Consistent with plans established at the time of investment, the firm helps companies go public, find strategic partners or attract additional capital to enable them to move to their next stage of development. Our exit depends on certain milestones being met.
