The Nash Capital Mandate

Private capital, not private equity

We are patient, long-term investors with no fixed investment horizon. We have real world, hands-on business experience.

simple checklist symbol
We are not seeking perfect companies

Our goal is to work directly alongside founders and management to provide strategic, financial and operational support to help drive growth and long-term success.

business strategy symbol
High conviction and nimble

We do not have layers of management or unnecessary bureaucratic structures. If we like a company, we can mobilise our team to diligence the business, submit an offer, and complete a transaction in 60 to 90 days.

Ready to invest $5m - $30m per transaction

The investment market is segmented, with few sources of capital able to be deployed in this range. The majority of established private equity funds in Australia seek $30m+ deals.

True partnership approach

Some talk about partnership, we actually do it. Our team is hands-on, and we get involved with multiple aspects of the business.

The Nash Capital team

Our team has direct, real-world business expertise. We bring unparalleled knowledge and strategic advice along with our investment.

How we operate

Nash Capital is a growth investor looking to partner with owners and management of medium sized businesses across Australia and New Zealand to drive long-term value for shareholders.

We seek to quickly understand a business and investment prospect via meetings with management and shareholders. We aim to agree on a deal term sheet in a matter of weeks, investing significant time and effort to ensure all parties are aligned from the outset. Upon exclusivity, we target completion within 8 weeks. During this time, we seek to agree on a 3-year business plan and a 100-day post-transaction plan prior to completing the investment. We remain committed to the execution of these plans and continue to work with the owners and management team throughout our investment period.

  • Businesses with an enterprise value of $10 to $75 million
  • A track record of profitability and a minimum EBITDA of $2 million
