We draw on a distinctive set of experiences, accumulated over decades of investing in and operating businesses, that have taught us where our expertise and capital is best utilized. We have made investments in, operated, and advised businesses ranging from $5 million to $10 billion in revenue; we have navigated the rising tide created by thriving businesses as well as the complicated waters of financial distress. As a result, we know that alignment of business and investment criteria is a cornerstone of success. We focus on opportunities with the following characteristics:
