What Resolute Capital Partners buys
Resolute Capital Partners is a Nashville investor that usually backs a private equity firm, an independent sponsor or a management team with debt and equity, rather than buying a company outright on its own. It puts in $5 million to $40 million of subordinated debt and equity for growth, management buyouts, leveraged buyouts, acquisitions and recapitalizations. It wants US companies with $5 million to $150 million of revenue and $1 million to $10 million of EBITDA, with strong managers who own a real stake and steady cash flow.
Most of its portfolio is in healthcare services, such as urgent care, behavioral health, physical therapy, dental and veterinary groups, along with business services such as outsourced IT, marketing and HR. It invests from Fund V, a $405 million SBIC fund closed in 2022, and began raising Fund VI in 2025. A smaller owner is most likely to meet Resolute through a sponsor it already works with, or as a debt and equity partner for a recapitalization.

Greymont’s take
How Resolute Capital Partners fits a seller
Resolute fits a healthcare or business services owner who wants a growth partner more than a full exit, or a sponsor or manager who needs junior capital to close a purchase. It stays with companies for years and keeps funding them. Its Behavioral Innovations stake grew from $3.5 million to $65 million across three funds, and that company went from 13 centers to 77 before its 2024 sale.
This money is mainly subordinated debt with equity beside it, so expect interest payments and a lender's protections, not just a shareholder. Its criteria call for managers with a meaningful stake, so a founder who wants to leave right away may not fit. An owner should ask how much of the investment is debt, what the repayment terms are, and whether the deal would come from Fund V or the newer Fund VI.
Questions owners ask
Does Resolute Capital Partners buy companies outright?
Usually not. It supplies subordinated debt and equity, often beside other investors. It recapitalized Xpress Wellness alongside a funded sponsor and bought NexusTek with an independent sponsor. In Endeavor Business Media it backed the chief executive directly.
Does Resolute take equity as well as lending?
Yes. Its case studies describe debt and equity packages of $8.5 million in Xpress Wellness, $7.3 million in NexusTek and $9 million in Endeavor Business Media, and Endeavor is still listed as a current investment.
What size company does Resolute look for?
Its criteria call for US companies with $5 million to $150 million of revenue and $1 million to $10 million of EBITDA, and a typical investment of $5 million to $40 million.
Is Resolute raising a new fund?
It said in February 2025 that it had formed Fund VI and started fundraising, with the same strategy as earlier funds. At that time it was still investing from Fund V, and no Fund VI close was found.
