Investor Details Founded: 1996
The Cambria Group is a private equity firm that focuses on acquiring and investing in small and mid-sized businesses with established operating histories. The firm was founded in 1996 to address a gap in the private equity market by targeting businesses that are fundamentally attractive but lack the high growth characteristics sought by traditional venture capitalists and the scale required to interest most fund-based buyout firms. Cambria's principals bring a blend of operating and financial experience, working closely with management to build enterprises and increase their value.
Cambria targets companies with revenues under $50 million and valuations under $25 million, primarily in the manufacturing, processing, distribution, transportation, or service sectors. The firm considers various transaction types, including outright acquisitions and growth equity financings. Cambria seeks businesses that are fundamentally sound and durable, with a history of profitability, a strong management team, a fair purchase price in relation to historical performance, and opportunities for management and Cambria to add value over time.
In a typical lead transaction, Cambria invests up to $5 million to acquire a control position, investing alongside management. In other cases, including with independent sponsors and search funds, Cambria will invest in concert with other like-minded investors, serving either as the lead investor or as a value-added co-investor alongside others. After closing, Cambria's role shifts to active oversight and support of the management team, often with the firm's principals serving as active shareholders and board members. Working in partnership with management, Cambria's principals seek to employ their experience and networks to the team's common goal—building the long-term value of the business itself.
