WHAT WE ACCOMPLISH
HOLISTIC CORPORATE FITNESS
cadence.capital believes every company becomes stronger and better through mastery of broad performance metrics such as financial expertise, zero-based accounting, operational efficiencies/KPI, a professionally managed supply chain, a customer solution-focus, fact-based decisions and consistently achieving the highest quality in all manner of products and services.
Development of quality personnel
cadence.capital develops strong leadership, cross-trained teams and long-term career growth. We have a demonstrable history of supporting, retaining and rewarding key employees. These individuals represent the reason a customer is loyal to a product and can lift a company from mediocre to world-class. cadence.capital believes strongly that continuity and consistency of such employees are essential to the future success of the company. Therefore, it is generally our intent to retain key employees of the company whenever appropriate.
VALUE CREATION
cadence.capital expects to maintain growth and profitability independent of business cycles and without excessive financial engineering or deferring CAPEX or New Product Development.

We prefer companies with a minimum of $1.0m of EBITDA for new platforms, but will gladly consider smaller companies if they complement current investments or are unique situations.
In all cases, we prefer recurring purchasing patterns for products and services, a clear opportunity to scale, differentiated leadership and a demonstrated ability to compete on attributes other than price.
