DESCRIPTION

The Anderson Group is a private equity firm focused on acquiring US-based companies at the lower end of the middle-market. While Anderson will consider divestitures, generational sales, cash flow transactions, and leveraged recapitalizations, the Firm prefers investing in distressed businesses needing operational improvement. Target companies should have at least $10 million in revenue and $1 million in EBITDA (no minimum EBITDA in restructuring situations). Anderson is a generalist investor, however, the Firm avoids technology, natural resources or retail businesses. The Anderson Group was formed in 1985 and is based in St. Petersburg, Florida.
