We work closely with our portfolio companies and provide capital, operating and strategic expertise, and a network of strategic industry contacts to help them become industry leaders. We align ourselves with visionary management teams and entrepreneurs who take substantial equity positions in their companies and help build businesses of significant value. Our team has substantial operating, consulting, technology, and financial management experience, enabling us to contribute meaningfully to our portfolio companies. Philosophy H.I.G.’s philosophy is to invest in operating companies that can take advantage of our ability to add value to a business. This expertise makes us better able to recognize the inherent value of a company, which allows us to place a higher valuation on a business enterprise than would a strictly financially driven investment firm. It also allows us to consider more challenging investment opportunities, such as underperforming businesses, businesses facing strategic, operational challenges, or complex structural issues. Approach H.I.G. takes a creative and flexible approach to private equity investment. Financing transactions in a sensible and prudent manner, we take into account the capital requirements necessary to meet the company’s growth and expansion plans and allow for a comfortable operating cushion to accommodate fluctuations in company performance. Our investments take a variety of forms, from control private equity investments, management-backed recapitalizations, and industry consolidations to minority investments.
