Parkview seeks to invest in companies which have a substantiated business model, a loyal customer base, stable (ideally annuity) cash flows, and prospects for growth. We seek new platform investments in the $5 million to $15 million range and are pursuing acquisitive growth within our portfolio of companies.

Our investment history is in industrial manufacturing and services businesses, in energy, aerospace and transportation. Our personal histories encompass business and financial services. With our Studentawards acquisition we have moved into educational/marketing services and the digital world.

We are interested in opportunities in sectors of the economy that are positioned to grow including industrial, energy, transportation, education and financial services. The niche markets we find attractive are structurally protected from excessive competition or off-shoring.

We have been involved in situations where success is based on operational improvement. We find these situations attractive when we can see an opportunity to improve historical underperformance by freeing trapped assets in non-core divisions of a corporate, re-energizing family business hampered by succession issues, or consolidating businesses in fragmented markets where potential synergies have not been exploited, or exploiting new market segments.
