Acquisitions with management
Bridgepoint seeks to acquire companies with strong market positions and earnings growth potential where significant additional value can be created through expansion and operational improvement.Typically it achieves this by using its industrial, commercial and financial expertise to work alongside management to create the value sought by investors, Bridgepoint and management alike. Whether you are a management team of an existing business or prospective new owners of target companies, there are opportunities to work with Bridgepoint.
Bridgepoint works with seasoned executives with the vision, drive and ability to build businesses, bringing together industry, strategic and management expertise with the funding required to grow companies. We are especially interested in exploring how a joint approach to target companies might create opportunities.
For publicly quoted companies with illiquid or undervalued stock and that require a longer-term view from shareholders or would perform better away from the quoted sector, there is the alternative of taking the company private with the backing of private equity capital we can provide.
Ideally, Bridgepoint looks for a number of factors in supporting such transactions e.g. narrow institutionally-held shareholder list, ready access to current management, a logical and compelling business case to prospective shareholders and a cogent exit strategy from private equity ownership. Bridgepoint is one of the most experienced private equity firms in this field.
