Core Practice Areas

Finance may not unlock deal value, but it can erode the investment thesis.

On acquisition date, most companies in the lower middle market have never been sponsor-backed. They struggle with the transition—lean finance teams, undocumented processes, and systems that weren't built to scale. It's critical to stabilize and optimize Finance from Day One.

Four Practice Areas. One Mission.
