The Juno Philosophy
A central component of our investment philosophy is management. We endeavor to invest in outstanding
people who possess the ability, experience, integrity
and motivation to succeed. Thus we seek out and support
companies that have strong, experienced management teams.
We believe that management should have a significant
equity or profit sharing position in our portfolio companies, and we structure
our investments accordingly. It is not our intention
to be actively involved in day-to-day operations, but
we will work in close partnership with senior management
to assist in strategy and policy decisions.
We apply our talents and expertise in
the areas of strategic planning, acquisitions, finance,
contingent liabilities management and corporate governance.
We are committed to helping management achieve appropriate
long-term goals.
Our portfolio companies typically have
a conservative capital structure and avoid excessive
use of leverage, and are therefore well positioned for
future growth opportunities. Our experience has
been to aggressively pursue strategic add-on acquisitions,
as well as internal expansion opportunities to grow
our portfolio companies. Finally, we are relationship-driven
with a strong commitment to our investors and our referral
sources.
Juno considers all parties to a
transaction to be its long term partners, and works to
provide mutually beneficial solutions on that basis. In
the case of the seller, Juno understands the seller's
sensitivity in maintaining and providing continued
service to customers, as well as resolving business
issues affecting the operations and personnel in other
areas of the company. Juno can be flexible in the manner
in which we acquire businesses from a financial,
operational and resources point of view.
