in the following types of private equity transactions:
Growth equity financings
The firm will consider equity investments in companies
seeking capital to finance internal growth or follow-on
acquisitions.
Recapitalizations
Waud Capital Partners provides the owners of closely
held businesses with liquidity while allowing them
to retain significant ownership and day-to-day operational
control.

The firm partners with experienced management teams
to create leading companies in fragmented industries.
WCP proactively identifies industries poised for
consolidation and invests in businesses whose market

through complementary acquisitions.
Generational changes of ownership
WCP offers owners of family businesses complete
or partial liquidity while providing an active role

stand-alone growth strategies led by our operating
partners who have significant equity ownership.
