Our Philosophy

We are not institutional in our approach. We are motivated by different factors than those held by other investment firms. We make a conscious effort to resist succumbing to the mindset of the majority of our professional investor brethren. Consistent with that, we do not approach investment situations with preconceived ideas or a “formula.” We are willing to invest over the long term and are willing to be opportunistic and highly flexible with regard to investment structure.

Our Values

• Providing the necessary resources, people, capital, and expertise in growing businesses to ensure the success of any new venture we choose to devote time to.
  
  
• Meeting the financial and non-financial objectives of all constituencies in an investment situation. We believe that people come first and a business—any business—will fail if management throughout an organization does not consistently apply solid values.
  
  
• Building companies hand-in-hand with management. We recognize that management, not Lynwood Capital principals, actually grows companies. We can help them or hurt them in their efforts. Accordingly, we are acutely sensitive to the demands of running a business, making the day-to-day decisions, and performing the balancing act required to grow enterprises to the next level.
  
  
• Quality over quantity. Lynwood Capital brings the same sophistication, professionalism, enthusiasm and appreciation for the individual characteristics of a particular business to a $5 million revenue company as we do in our involvement with a $75 million company. We ascribe to the investment principle that you do not need to make very many investments if you make a few very good investments.
  

Lynwood Capital has earned its reputation for integrity, prudent transactions and providing incentives to motivate superior performance by management. We continue to make our investment decisions in order to preserve this reputation.
