Our Team
Message from Founder & Managing Partner
Managing Partner
In 2016, Massey Capital was launched with a mission to make equity investments in lower mid-market companies, defined as businesses with annual EBITDA less than $5.0 million. We continue to see this as a large, underserved market.
Business owners, seeking a succession planning exit, often struggle to find a buyer that has all of the following 5 essential attributes:
1.the diverse set of leadership and operational capabilities necessary to successfully guide the business after the transaction is closed;
2.the alignment of values and culture that every founder seeks for his/her team;
3.the M&A capabilities to successfully close a transaction in a fair and balanced manner;
4.a track record of 100% vendor takeback (VTB) payouts either on-time or one year early; and
5.a long-term ownership mindset with no requirement or outlook to flip or sell its investments.
It is in all of these areas that Massey Capital has continued to differentiate itself from its competition.
Massey Capital further sets itself apart from its competition by the fact that:
- we only invest our own capital;
- we invest for +20 years; and
- we have built a track record of closing deals within 60 days of signing a Letter of Intent.
Today, we are grateful for the talented team of professionals we have assembled at Massey Capital. Our principles have completed +100 acquisitions and +5 start-ups across North America during their careers and built a reputation from business owners and trusted advisors for their ethics and balanced approach to completing a transaction.
Looking ahead, we continue to meet business owners that have built strong businesses and are now seeking an exit. Our goal is to continue to add great companies to our Massey Capital portfolio that meet our investment criteria.
In closing, we would like to acknowledge the outstanding dedication and hard work of our talented people in each of our portfolio companies. Our collective success and greatness comes from our ability to continue to find ways to improve our culture, strategy and execution – always striving to improve, to grow and to differentiate ourselves from the competition.
