Substantial Equity for Owners and Management
A recapitalization with Quad-C is the ideal solution for an owner who wants to achieve partial liquidity while retaining the upside of a continued investment in their company on a tax-deferred basis. For managers who are not owners, partnering with Quad-C provides the opportunity to invest in their company and participate in an attractive stock option program.

Management Continuity
Your responsibilities and duties following a transaction with Quad-C will be essentially unchanged from your responsibilities prior to the transaction. Our goal is to partner with highly capable management teams and support them as they grow the business. We do not have a stable of operators that we bring in to fix things that are clearly not broken. Instead, we focus on adding value by assisting in corporate development and strategy and leave the operations to our management partners.

Expertise in Corporate Development and Strategy
The investment professionals at Quad-C have well over 150 years of collective experience in corporate and strategic development, mergers and acquisitions and corporate finance. As a "fresh set" of eyes on an already successful business, combined with our extensive experience analyzing and helping to grow companies in a variety of industries, we are well positioned to work with our management teams to: (i) identify opportunities for improved growth, profitability and return on capital, (ii) originate, structure, fund and execute strategic acquisitions, and (iii) institute best practices by benchmarking companies against other Quad-C portfolio companies and other businesses both inside and outside of the industry.

Integrity
We believe integrity is the cornerstone of a strong partnership, and integrity starts with open communication. We pride ourselves on being up front about the terms of the transaction and then sticking to those terms. After closing, we endeavor to treat management and employees fairly and honestly.

Confidentiality
When you enter into negotiations with Quad-C, you can be sure that every aspect will remain confidential even if the parties decide not to proceed (we are always happy to sign Confidentiality Agreements).

Low Profile
We have a philosophy of maintaining a low profile after a transaction has been completed, as we believe there is little upside in announcing to customers and suppliers that there has been a change in corporate ownership.

Rapid Closings
We understand that due diligence, if conducted improperly, can be highly disruptive to a company. After two decades of acquiring companies, we’ve developed an efficient process that typically allows us to close a transaction within 45–90 days, while minimizing disruption to the day-to-day operations.
