Top Quality Management
Drawing from our operational experience, we are
well-positioned to assess management teams, focusing
on their quality, track record, and demonstrated
motivation to succeed. If warranted, we will
actively assist in recruiting management from
our broad base of contacts.
Robust Market Potential
We invest in companies with products that have
sufficient market potential to generate required
returns. In particular, the market size and growth prospects
for those products must be sufficiently robust.
Distinguishable Point of Differentiation in the
Marketplace
Companies must possess unique attributes such as
a significant market niche or proven technology
that creates a competitive advantage, preferably
in a sector where barriers to competitive entry
exist. This includes such characteristics as targeted
evidence-based products, highly proprietary products,
and products compatible with an efficient use of
paid-in-capital with achievable development and/or
approval milestones - within a reasonable time
frame.
Superior Financial Returns
We invest in companies capable of generating superior
financial returns through an assessment of market
potential, competition, overall investment required
and exit timeline. Most investments will be distributed
in stages that are milestone based. Also, we execute
on a life cycle investing practice maintaining
pro-rata positions through until exit.
Exit Focus
We believe risk can be minimized and returns maximized, by investing in
companies that remain focused on a timely exit strategy. Therefore management and other
investors must be aligned with our exit strategy and execution plan. Our
team will consider an exit in the form of an initial public offering or
a trade sale.
