CREATING VALUE

Our primary goal is to support sector-leading management teams to grow significantly through organic growth or by acquisition. LGV's approach is to add value by making operational and financial improvements through:

• driving revenues
• buy and build
• creating efficiencies
• improving financial structure

Strategic Partners:

We adopt a more flexible funding structure than many of our competitors, as we have a particular focus on working with strategic partners, whereby LGV invests alongside trade partners or the founders of businesses, acting at times as a minority shareholder.

LGV has developed a track record of working with suitable partners to join forces and acquire businesses. Typically our partners are either well established companies with strong track records or successful entrepreneurs / founders of businesses who have built market leading enterprises.

Working with trade partners has allowed LGV to invest in assets which might not have been available to either party and working with founders/entrepreneurs has allowed for partial realisations as well as acquisitions to be financed.

Examples of LGV investing with partners include Jeyes, Vue Cinemas, Unique Pub Company, Bourne Leisure, and Young's Bluecrest. Please click on the following link to download a copy of our approach to Working with Strategic Partners.
