Coastline Capital is a private equity investment firm that invests in middle market companies that are leaders in their market niches or can serve as platforms for consolidation and rapid growth in fragmented industries. While we believe that flexibility is critical to success in the middle market, our activities generally fall into three categories, (1) ownership transitions for entrepreneurs, families management teams, and corporations seeking liquidity from non-core assets; (2) growth capital investments that serve as catalysts for rapid growth or strategic transformation; and (3) special situations involving companies experiencing financial or operational stress. Coastline is opportunistic and pursues a flexible approach to investing capital and realizing returns on its investments. Underlying this approach is a focus on enhancing the intrinsic value of a businesses rather than financial engineering. Therefore, we craft sensible financial structures built around conservative business plans and ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for working capital, expansion, and fluctuations in performance due to company or systemic factors.
