What Valedor Partners buys

Valedor Partners is a Houston private investment firm that does buyouts and growth equity deals in US lower middle market companies. Its stated range is $10 million to $200 million of revenue and $3 million to $30 million of EBITDA. It calls itself industry agnostic but points to experience in business services, consumer goods, distribution, infrastructure services, manufacturing and packaging, residential and commercial services, and waste management. It favors founder-owned companies with a defensible niche in a fragmented industry, keeps debt modest, and grows through operating improvements and add-ons.

Valedor raises equity deal by deal from outside investors rather than from one large fund, and it has also run a small fund for seed-stage consumer brands. Its main buyout platform today is Q360 Group, a New Jersey supplier of parts, consumables and equipment to label and packaging printers, backed alongside co-investor Align Collaborate. Q360 wants add-ons with more than $2 million of revenue, which is the likeliest way in for a smaller company.

Greymont’s take

How Valedor Partners fits a seller

Valedor fits an owner who wants to sell a large share of the business now but keep a stake and stay for the next phase of growth, which is the partner its approach page describes. Its team includes former operators, and one of its operating partners sits on the Q360 board, so expect hands-on involvement. For owners of printing consumables, parts or press service businesses, Q360 is an active buyer that says it wants to protect sellers' employees and customer relationships, and it said it would build on The Flexo Factor brand rather than change it.

Because Valedor raises equity for each deal instead of drawing on a committed fund, an owner should ask early who the co-investors are, how the purchase will be financed, and how long Valedor and its partners expect to hold the company.

Questions owners ask
