Strategy

Banyan typically invests $7 million to $30 million of equity per transaction in companies that generate trailing 12 month earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of at least $3 million and is actively looking for the following
types of investment opportunities:

• Privately held companies seeking to accelerate growth through acquisition, facilitate ownership change or recapitalize their balance sheet
• Leveraged acquisitions of “orphaned” corporate divisions or small-cap public companies lacking strong institutional investor following
• Micro and small-cap public companies seeking negotiated placements of preferred equity or equity- linked securities
• Senior executives seeking a financial partner to acquire or invest in a company or sector in which they have intimate knowledge and a demonstrated track record of value creation

Attributes of Target Banyan Investments:
• Established businesses that generate consistent free cash flow and attractive returns on invested capital
• Companies that are important to their customers and enjoy strong industry/competitive positions
• Complex situations including management transition, diverging shareholder objectives and structured/hybrid junior capital requirements
