Investment Philosophy
| Corporate Criteria
Brookwood is a multi-stage investor across a broad mix of
industry categories. Our typical investment size ranges from
$2 million to $10 million and generally will be in the form
of preferred equity or convertible debt. We often co-invest
with other well-established investment firms.
Although we do not participate in the day-to-day decisions
of our portfolio companies, we are not passive investors.
We provide strategic, managerial and financial counsel. Most
often, this is accomplished through representation on the
company's board of directors. In addition, many of our investors
are senior executives or former senior executives who provide advice and potential
sales leads and other valuable contacts for our portfolio
companies. We work hard to create productive partnerships
with our portfolio companies since we know our long-term success
depends on having strong working relationships with their
management teams.
Characteristics we seek in corporate investments include,
but are not limited to, the following:
Exceptional Growth Potential
We seek growth from industry or market expansion or increases
in market share through organic growth and/or acquisitions.
Qualified and Experienced Management
We invest in companies whose management teams have in-depth
knowledge of and experience in their industries.
Clear and Sustainable Competitive
Advantage
We focus on companies whose competitive edge comes from their
ability to create products or services with intrinsic value
for their customers.
