We employ various financing structures that are customized for each investee company's unique requirements while seeking to optimize overall cost of capital.
We are not restricted by traditional lending parameters and can underwrite situations that traditional lenders and other financing providers can not or will not; we provide capital solutions when and where they matter.
With our team’s decades of experience in managing, investing in, and advising small to large companies across various industries, we understand business challenges, and work closely with stakeholders to enhance governance and controls while providing advice and insight on roadblocks, business strategy, growth, and M&A.
A brief summary to our underwriting and investment management approach:
A brief summary to our underwriting and investment management approach:
We seek to understand the investee company through a preliminary pre-term sheet diligence process and look for key differentiators to align with our underwriting criteria and expectations. Once pre-term sheet diligence is complete and if we are ready to proceed further, we present and negotiate a detailed, tailored set of terms that are approved by our investment committee.
After a term-sheet is executed, we conduct comprehensive ground-up diligence and implement any structural changes we may deem necessary. Our investment committee works closely with the deal team on diligence, structure, closing, and funding the investment.
Post closing and funding, our focus remains on continuous collaboration, monitoring, and engagement for each investment to maximize value. We may have representation as Board members and / or observers and generally have periodic touch points with stakeholders to assist with the foregoing.
We typically seek to exit each investment in 3-4 years. Our goal is to help bring our investee companies to a point where they have grown / added value and are ready for the next stage in their evolution and funding requirements. We work closely with stakeholders to ensure an efficient exit.
