Sandpiper Capital Fund

Sandpiper invests in smaller companies from a variety of industries which have strong management teams, positive cash flows and clear opportunities for growth.  Also, Sandpiper will consider early stage or start-up entities with extraordinary potential.

Consideration for an investment may include equity, assumption of debt, earn-outs or a combination of these.  Sandpiper will consider minority or majority investments of generally up to $2 million.  Although Sandpiper typically does not seek management control of the businesses in which it invests, board representation is sought.

Through its industry contacts, Sandpiper has the ability to identify and bring executive level management to a company.  Sandpiper considers itself a long-term investor with an investment horizon of up to 10 years.  However, shorter holding periods may be acceptable depending upon the exit strategy.

Sandpiper continuously monitors portfolio investments against Sandpiper and management expectations to manage performance risk and to implement necessary action, when warranted.  Such monitoring includes a variety of techniques including ongoing face-to-face meetings with management.
