| We seek to be the partner of choice for owners, entrepreneurs, and management teams by conducting our business according to the values below, and we seek partners and managers who share our commitment to these values:
Integrity
We will conduct our activities with the highest integrity, honesty, and transparency.
We meet our commitments and do what we say.
Commitment
We are driven to build companies of exceptional value.
Partnership
We invest in people.
We acknowledge and reward the contributions of others.
Our management partners have day-to-day responsibility for running the business while we provide strategic, operational, and financial assistance to build a more successful enterprise.
Flexibility
We recognize that every situation is unique.
We approach every transaction with the flexibility to meet the shareholder's objectives, and we structure transactions to address the needs of all stakeholders - owners, employees, vendors, and customers.
We believe in conservative capital structures, as financial leverage should never limit a company's ability to grow. |
