The NOVASTONE advantage

We invest in industry-leading operators and companies.

ABOUT US

As the investment arm of Novastone Capital Advisors (NCA), we deploy capital in operator-led buyouts of lower-middle-market companies where leadership transition creates opportunities to maximize value.

In contrast to traditional buyout firms that identify the target company first, we start by finding exceptional operators. Together, we identify the acquisition target that aligns with their industry expertise and is best positioned for transformative growth. Our carefully selected operators serve as the optimal solution to succession, becoming the next-generation CEOs.

OUR

PROGRAM

OUR

PROGRAM

1.

Identify

We begin by rigorously selecting and supporting experienced mid-career operators who lead searches for companies that align with their specific industry expertise and are poised for growth with a new CEO at the helm.

2.

Acquire

Our approach provides the optimal succession solution for lower-middle-market companies. Retiring owners of successful businesses have confidence in our experienced operators to steward their legacy into the future.

3.

Scale & Exit

Leadership transition and operational excellence lead to value creation early in our ownership. With an experienced management team in place and proven sustainable growth, our companies become prime acquisition targets.
