Investment thesis

Saugatuck follows a decades-long philosophy that strong management teams combined with the firm's capital and operational expertise can build valuable companies. It invests equity across several deal types: traditional buyouts and recapitalizations of privately held companies, divisions or public companies with strong cash flow and market position (deal sizes of $15M-$200M), including turnaround situations; industry consolidations via a 'core company' strategy that acquires and rolls up smaller businesses in fragmented markets; and growth equity investments in middle-market companies that struggle to access public equity or bank debt, where Saugatuck often serves as the largest institutional investor and provides resources and expertise.
