Tri Capital Financial believes in sound investment fundamentals. Our philosophy is to seek quality businesses with strong management, reasonable valuations, and opportunities to create value. We invest in growing, profitable, privately held companies with proven business models, records of revenue and earnings growth, and the leadership capable of sustaining that growth. While we leave the day-to-day management of our portfolio companies to the entrepreneurs and management teams, we offer a disciplined perspective as experienced advisors to ensure continued success while providing strategic vision, which is necessary for future growth.

Industry Preference
Tri Capital Financial believes in targeting particular industries and focuses on high growth sectors such as communications, technology, software, information services, and in more mature-growth areas such as industrial products, consumer products, healthcare, business services, financial services, and other growth industries.

Management
Tri Capital Financial believes that the management of any company is the single most important factor of any business. Our disciplined approach is to partner with owners and managers that have proven track records with clear visions for growth and the ability to implement ambitious strategic plans. We think that executives, owners, and senior managers should invest in the companies they manage and will generally provide equity-based incentives to top management allowing them to participate meaningfully in the value they help create.

Business Characteristics
Tri Capital Financial believes the most attractive investment opportunities are those businesses that have shown consistent historical growth. Our emphasis is placed on finding companies that are growing quickly, assisting them to continue and accelerate their growth. We seek companies with a sustainable competitive position in a stable or growing market niche, that have rapid growth, meaningful barriers to entry, non-cyclical revenue, consistent profitability, high margins and a growing market share. Our investment strategy is to invest in companies we perceive to be on the "cutting edge" of creating major new markets within their respective industry.

Investment Structure
Tri Capital Financial believes in a structured investment approach. Our investments range from $3 million to $10 million dollars. The companies have a sales range from $10 million to $75 million dollars, and cash flow to the company of $3 million to $15 million dollars. Tri Capital Financial will consider minority and majority investments, recapitalizations, exits, mergers, management transitions, purchases of stock or assets, and buy-outs of passive or active shareholders. We structure transactions that foster long-term growth, ensure financial stability for the company and maximize shareholder value.
