Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Sier Capital Partners?
Kevin L. Ramsier is the lead contact at Sier Capital Partners, alongside Adam Altus and Aaron Lazar. The firm's website does not designate formal titles beyond 'Contact,' but lists them as the sole team members. Operating as a small, principal-led group, investment decisions appear centralized among these three individuals.
How does Sier Capital Partners source proprietary deal flow?
Sier Capital does not publicly describe its sourcing process in detail. Its website invites business owners to 'Introduce Yourself' through a direct contact form, and lists email addresses for all three team members. The firm’s lean structure suggests relationship-based, direct outreach to owners seeking liquidity and transition, rather than intermediated auction processes.
Does Sier Capital Partners commit its own capital to deals?
Yes. The firm states, 'We invest our own capital in every business we work with.' This alignment with limited partners and seller management is a core part of its investment philosophy, though it has not disclosed the proportion of balance-sheet capital versus external LP capital per transaction.
What investment stages and profiles does Sier Capital target?
Sier Capital targets profitable, established businesses with EBITDA greater than $2 million, recurring customer bases, and positive cash flow. It seeks control buyouts and late-stage expansion, explicitly avoiding early-stage companies and fund investments. The firm favors fragmented industries with supportive tailwinds and opportunities for competitive differentiation.
Which sectors does Sier Capital avoid?
The firm's website explicitly states it does not consider fund investments or early-stage companies and startups for its own account. Beyond that, it does not list excluded sectors, but its focus on recurring revenue and $2M+ EBITDA effectively filters out pre-revenue technology, speculative biotech, and other venture-dependent industries.
