Direct Investments
In addition to Pacific Asset Partners’ focus on direct investment
in the small and midcap public markets, a critical element of our
investment success has been a function of allocating long-term growth
capital to select smaller public and late stage private companies.
These investments are often privately negotiated and directed towards
innovation in the technology, healthcare and consumer sectors. Equity
is our preferred investment vehicle in the form of preferred stock,
PIPE (private investment in public equity) transactions, Rule 144A
stock or in certain circumstances, common stock.
Our investments must be able to sustain a particular product or service
advantage over a three to five year period. Typically that means they
have certain proprietary advantages, serve a unique market niche,
or maintain significant barriers to entry that will drive sustainable
earnings growth over an extended period. Our management teams must
be able to capitalize on the market opportunity set before them, have
a proven history of execution, and exercise a high degree of integrity
in their approach to business.
Although we view ourselves as co-investors and do not typically require
a control position or board representation, we do view ourselves as
partners with the respective management teams. We work hard to incorporate
our experience, track record and network to create value for our portfolio
companies and our investors.
If your company falls within our general investment parameters as
detailed under the protected domain of this site, and you are seeking
a long term partner in your business, we encourage you to contact
us.
