Our Doctrine of Growth
The goal of Penn Valley Group’s investment philosophy is to create strong operational and strategic partnerships with outstanding management teams. We place special value on businesses with a solid foundation of building shareholder value and strong competitive characteristics, such as:
- Significant market share
- Proven history of innovation
- Appropriate levels of free cash flow
- Proprietary manufacturing process
When structuring an investment, PVG takes careful consideration to not only assure the match of the company, but also the viability of the relationship. In every investment situation, we must confirm:
- That capital is readily available to our portfolio management teams for profitable investments in their business
- That leverage, if used, is applied prudently
Meeting these objectives is the key to our investment philosophy and allows for the creation of mutually beneficial – and mutually rewarding – equity investment transactions.
