About the Fund An affiliate of Mitsubishi International Corporation, Red Diamond Capital (RDC) is a $150 million corporate buyout fund that invests in established middle market North American manufacturing, distribution and service businesses in partnership with proven management. Founded in April 2002, Red Diamond is led by experienced professionals with extensive backgrounds in private equity. Investment Strategy Red Diamond Capital seeks to achieve superior investment returns through a value-added investment strategy combining industry focus, its CEOwners® Program, and the strategic resources of its funding partner, Mitsubishi Corporation. Mitsubishi's global strengths can bring major business benefits of market intelligence, low cost sourcing expertise, purchasing power, international marketing depth and access to advanced technologies to RDC's portfolio companies. Core Industry Sectors:
Transaction Type Red Diamond Capital prefers change-of-control transactions in partnership with management. RDC also will consider minority investments under certain circumstances. Company Size $25 million minimum annual revenues and $5 million minimum annual EBITDA for platform companies. Investment Size $10 million to $35 million of equity per platform company. CEOwners® Program Red Diamond Capital seeks to partner with exceptional business leaders. In many instances, these leaders will already be managing a portfolio company. In others, RDC will work with an independent, proven CEO or assembled team on a dedicated search to acquire a platform business for them to manage. RDC's CEOwners® Program expands the universe of investment candidates to include under-performing businesses to companies where no successor or selling founder/owner exists, and neglected "orphan" divisions of larger entities. At any given time, RDC is actively engaged with a network of CEOs to source and assess investment opportunities. Mitsubishi Resources Through its affiliation with Mitsubishi Corporation, Japan's leading trading company, Red Diamond Capital can offer its portfolio companies significant benefits. Mitsubishi can help Red Diamond's portfolio companies reduce costs by gaining access to the most competitive global sourcing resources available, increase sales by penetrating new international markets, and access leading-edge technologies by leveraging industry knowledge and contacts in Mitsubishi's worldwide network. |
