Newlook Capital

Product Overview
Newlook Capital, through the Industrial and Infrastructure Services Fund III, seeks to acquire companies operating in the industrial and infrastructure services space that are doing the following:
– Producing strong free cash flow
– Have a large percentage of revenue coming from recurring sources
– Are operating within industries where the service work is required by government mandated law or code
– Employment is secured with long-term contracts
Newlook then partners with the current owner/operators to help them create, and implement a strategic business plan to expand and grow their businesses. Newlook operates businesses in both Canada and the U.S.A. and they utilize the cash flow of the businesses to support the distributions to their investors. Each platform of companies within the portfolio is strategically purchased for an eventual exit (sale) to a strategic competitor or other private equity firm.
