INVESTMENT CRITERIA

Jett Capital Management seeks to invest $5 to $10 million in growing middle-market companies with exceptional management teams and proven business models. Uses of our equity capital may include: buyouts expansion recapitalization and consolidation opportunities We seek companies with the following characteristics:

  • Annual sales of at least $5 million
  • Experienced and trustworthy management
  • Defined niche and defensible market position
  • Stable cash flows and opportunity for significant equity appreciation

INVESTMENT FOCUS

We seek companies with outstanding management teams and business models, those characterized in the "Investment Criteria" listed above. We have the additional following investment preferences:

  • Demographic - Jett Capital Management is focused on all strong growth companies and actively searches for those owned or managed by women or ethnic minorities.
  • Geographic - We invest globally.
  • Industry - Jett Capital Management provides equity and equity-related debt financing to small and mid-sized high-growth companies. In particular we favor sectors in financial services, telecom, media, technology and alternative energy.

Our thoughts on specific industry categories is shown below:

  • Business Services - Attractive candidates will offer services and products for multiple customers across several industrial classification codes.
  • Consumer Goods and Services - We will invest in consumer goods and services businesses that have achieved a strong market position through proprietary products or services, brand name recognition or unique distribution channels. Jett Capital Management seeks companies with a strong service orientation that results in high customer loyalty and excellent customer knowledge.
  • Manufacturing - Jett Capital Management is interested in investing in successful manufacturers that operate in well-defined market niches with attractive industry fundamentals. We prefer companies that serve a diverse customer base and generate higher than average returns in medium-to-low capital intensive businesses. Companies producing a commodity product in price competitive industries are not of interest.
  • Distribution - The distribution companies in which we seek to invest must possess a value-added strategy and a diversified customer base with the ability to grow market share either through the acquisition of complementary companies, new products or new channels of distribution.
  • Real Estate - We do not invest in real estate opportunities.
  • Stage - We are later stage investors, meaning we do not invest in start-up operations. Companies need to have $5 million in annualized sales to be, in our minds, past the start-up phase.
  • Turn-Arounds - We will not finance companies whose operations are sufficiently poor as to require a "turn-around" in strategy, management, and customer base. We will consider situations where a company has been over-leveraged and suffered thereby, so long as the capital structure is fixed at the time of our investment.
