Equity capital is deployed from IR’s partners, executive investors, and numerous institutional investors.

Our relationships with institutional investors, lenders and financial institutions span several decades. All our financings have ALWAYS BEEN COMPLETED.

We maintain strong relationships with reputable mezzanine and preferred stock investors that enable us to effectively source growth capital as well as additional funding availability.

Our typical acquisitions receive initial capital funding of $10 million to $100 million; we will deploy additional funding for add-on acquisitions and strategic initiatives. Larger or smaller amounts may be provided, tailored to the specific needs of the company and transaction.

Our financing approach is anchored by the belief that all companies must have a proper capital structure in order to be successful.

• We carefully design the balance sheet of each platform company, aligning its capital structure with the business plan, developed by us and company management.
  
  
• We typically over-fund a transaction to provide adequate working capital and promote growth through acquisitions and internal expansion.
  
  
• We design and negotiate our loan and credit facilities to provide flexibility with respect to amortization of principal and financial covenants.
  
  
• We constantly monitor our balance sheets to ensure conservative equity to total capital ratios.
