Our investment model is predicated on patiently backing strong leaders and investing over a multi-decade horizon.
Our committed capital base allows us to acquire businesses with equity only, and we don’t intend to use third party debt. The investment decision and capital are solely ours, which has two important implications: (1) cash flow can be freely reinvested in our businesses, and (2) we can move efficiently through the sale process.
WHY A DIFFERENT APPROACH IS RIGHT FOR YOU
Like our core family business, we plan to buy and own businesses for the long-term (decades not years).
We don’t use third-party debt in transactions, which helps de-risk any company from near term uncertainty.
We can solve any problem of the owner or family within a sale of their business.
We are family equity, not private equity. We have committed capital and can move fast in the investment process.
Investment Focus
Size: $750k - $4 million in earnings
Location: Rocky Mountain, Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions
Industry: Open to all industries
Management: Artesian is ready to step in and run the company after the transaction is complete if desired by the seller
We pride ourselves on our ability to facilitate smooth and thoughtful business transitions. Depending on each company’s needs, we can: (1) step in and operate the business on day one, (2) work through a transition period with the existing ownership or (3) back the current management team in a recapitalization of the company.
