Quadrillion Capital focuses on middle market companies in the technology, manufacturing, industrial, and services in the U.S. and Canada.

Most of our investments are usually illiquid for several years. The time horizon is driven by the investment thesis and our collective ability to add value to each investment

The businesses selected for equity investments are screened based on Quadrillion Capital's expertise and understanding of the likelihood of success of buying, improving, and selling these business over a period of time.  Quadrillion Capital takes a highly data driven approach to screening and due diligence of its potential investment opportunities to minimize risk and improve our understanding of what levers can be pulled to improve performance and facilitate growth in each investment opportunity

The Management Team has worked as private equity investors, line operators, and advisors to companies undergoing rapid transformation for the last 25 years.  Collectively, the team has over fifty (50) years of combined experience in screening, acquiring, operating, owning, and growing small and mid-sized businesses.

Quadrillion Capital seeks to acquire control interest in companies.  This means we have a majority interest in each company, decision making authority at the Board of Directors level, and influence decisions directly in each company.  We work with management teams to define specific initiatives to expand profits, improve operations, and enhance digital capabilities at each company we acquire.  These initiatives are then implemented by the company with an individual from our team assigned for oversight and support.  Our implementation model is highly collaborative and data driven, so our "risk" (or likelihood) of success on each initiative is high.  We invest in companies where we have deep knowledge and in investment situations that we feel favor our investors.

We are experts in technology related, industrial related, and manufacturing related businesses.  Our private placement memorandum lists various industries within these sectors that we focus on for investment opportunities.

We invest in companies that are headquarted in the United States only or where we can relocate headquarters to the US easily.  Many of our acquired companies will have operations internationally, and we have deep experience working in different countries (China, Japan, South Korea, Germany, France, UK, Australia, South Africa, et. al.) where we have significantly improved operations and grown sales.

Today, Quadrillion Capital has several active technology investments its portfolio.  

Given our active involvement in each portfolio company, Quadrillion Capital intends to invest in no more than two (2) investment opportunities during each twve-month period.

Quadrillion Capital screens companies to understand if they have a reason to exist, a set of defendable advantages (like strong customer or supplier relationships, needed products or services, etc.), and tailwinds in their core markets.  We believe that acquiring companies with below average performance and getting them to average or above average performance relative to their peer group is a strong investment thesis for investors.  We seek to find companies that have correctible problems we can address.  Middle Market companies often suffer from a lack of capital, lack of talent, and inability to leverage digital tools.  Our team is well equipped and prepared to address these gaps and help businesses grow.

We focus on investment situations that are more complex than average.  This means that the acquisition candidates may require more time and effort to negotiate and it may involve organizing for additional risks.  All in, these more complex investment situations tend to be less competitive too, meaning that many investment firms shy away from them either because they don't want to invest the time or they don't have the capability to resolve the issues presented.  When an investment opportunity is less competitive, Quadrillion finds we can acquire the company for less money.

At Quadrillion Capital, we develop an initiative-based plan before we buy each company.  We call this plan our "10^15 Plan."  10^15 (ten to the 15th power) is the number quadrillion! More importantly, 10^15 means the 10 initiatives we can implement in the first 15 month after we own a business that will materially improve the company's performance.  Each initiative is well defined and is grouped into the following areas: (1) cost reduction, (2) gross margin improvement (GMI), (3) revenue growth, (4) working capital management, and (5 ) digital enablement.  Our 10^15 plan is sequenced and co-owned by members of our team and people in each portfolio company.  Our 10^15 plan also shows how the company will grow profitability from the EBITDA level when we buy the company to its 'full potential' EBITDA, which is our target and the level at which we will look to sell the company
