EBSCO Capital

EBSCO Capital LLC, established in 2014 and based in Birmingham, Alabama, is the private equity and venture capital division of EBSCO Industries, Inc. The firm focuses on long-term, control investments in both new platform and add-on opportunities across various sectors. For new platforms, EBSCO Capital targets investments in business services, manufacturing, distribution, consumer products, and computer components, primarily in companies based in the United States and Canada with EBITDA between $5 million and $25 million. In contrast, add-on investments can be made globally in sectors such as information services, healthcare technology, outdoor products, and risk management, with no minimum EBITDA requirement. The firm prefers to invest in companies with low capital expenditure and high free cash flow, aiming for a diverse customer base to mitigate risk. EBSCO Capital emphasizes quality middle-market companies and seeks to establish a 100% stake in its add-on investments, reflecting its commitment to substantial ownership and influence in its portfolio companies.
