Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Prentice Capital Management?
Michael Zimmerman is the sole Founder, Managing Partner, and Chief Investment Officer. He built the firm after running risk arbitrage at Och-Ziff Capital Management, and he personally leads the activist campaigns and board-level engagements. All investment and voting authority rests with him.
Does Prentice Capital prefer to settle privately or wage public proxy fights?
Prentice has done both. It won board representation at Destination XL through private negotiation but launched a full proxy contest at Big 5 Sporting Goods in 2018, publicly nominating a slate of directors. The firm uses the threat of a proxy fight as leverage to get inside the boardroom, but will run one when private negotiations stall.
