Disciplined Investment Approach
Enhanced Healthcare Partners executes a value-added investment formula in building or acquiring healthcare companies in the lower-middle market.
Phase I: Foundation Building
The initial phase is focused on preparing the platform company for aggressive growth. We leverage our deep industry relationships to identify and retain seasoned executives to lead or augment the existing team. In partnership with our management teams, we establish a detailed strategic plan, institute best-in-class processes, and invest in strong management information systems.
Phase II: Breakout
The second phase is focused on driving growth and building critical mass by executing on the strategic plan. This typically occurs through a transformational event or series of events, which may include consummating material acquisitions, opening new facilities or locations, securing major contracts or customers, or launching new business lines.
Phase III: Value Acceleration
With all of the building blocks in place, Phase III focuses on driving accelerated value creation through aggressive organic and acquisition growth and operational excellence.
While we are proactive in building our portfolio companies, we recognize that the process requires prudence and patience to maximize value. We conservatively use financial leverage in capitalizing portfolio companies and generally anticipate an average holding period of five years.
