General Info

Lake Capital focuses on investing selectively in a limited number of middle-market, service-based companies with the potential for growth. Lake Capital was founded on the belief that growing businesses need more than capital to achieve their full potential. The company typically allocates $40 million or more of equity to each portfolio company initiative. Typically, a portion of the allocation goes into the initial transaction to acquire a base platform, leaving a substantial amount of additional equity capital to carry out an organically and acquisitions-driven growth strategy. In addition, with seller financing, third-party debt, and co-investment opportunities, significant capital in addition to the initial equity allocation is available to each initiative. The company is headquartered in Chicago.
