This is our typical approach: |
 |
We look to invest £1m – £10m into companies with £10m – £200m turnover; UK centric but not sector specific. |
 |
An initial high-level appraisal is undertaken to identify, usually within 24hours, whether a feasible turnaround investment opportunity exists. |
 |
If so, deeper analysis is carried out combining private equity investing principles and operational assessments from experienced turnaround professionals. This creates a case-specific investment thesis. |
 |
Privet Capital will then make a funding proposal, typically within days of receiving the initial information. The available funding is highly flexible, allowing bespoke solutions and can include |
| |
 |
an entirely new structure to buy the business or |
 |
buying into or supporting an existing structure using any form of financial instrument. |
|
 |
We then work with the other stakeholders and advisors to confirm and develop our plan and thesis, including getting the right structure and team, and arranging any other funding required. |
 |
This is concluded by delivering the transaction. |
 |
Once we have taken control, we will implement the turnaround strategy, stabilising the business then moving towards improved performance and profitability. |
 |
At an early stage we start to prepare exit strategies to realise value, and will typically exit in 1-4 years. |
