We partner with management to make control equity investments in LBOs and recapitalizations of lower middle market businesses. We pursue niche-market leaders that provide high-margin products or services.
Our transactions typically provide liquidity to shareholders of privately owned businesses, facilitate transition of ownership to key managers, and allow management to capitalize on growth opportunities.
We see what others miss
Milestone has distinguished itself among its peers by identifying solid fundamental long-term value that went underappreciated by others. We don’t have all the answers, but we listen and we are creative.
