Cyprium Partners (Cyprium) is a private investment firm that provides mezzanine and equity capital to profitable, middle-market companies. On June 1, 2011, due to the recent passing of the Dodd-Frank financial legislation, the investment and finance teams at Key Principal Partners (KPP) resigned to form Cyprium Partners. The firm differentiates itself as a flexible investor that can provide any combination of subordinated debt, preferred equity and/or common equity in either non-control (minority ownership) or control (majority ownership) positions. Cyprium strives to be a value-added investor that supports the growth, acquisition, refinancing or liquidity needs of private company owners and their management teams. Cyprium looks to invest in manufacturing, distribution or service oriented companies with sales between $30 million and $250 million, a minimum EBITDA of $10 million, and a history of growth and profitable operation. Cyprium will invest from $10 million to $60 million in any combination of the following capital securities: Subordinated debt; Preferred stock; Common equity; Warrants, options and equity participation rights. To date Cyprium has invested $1.1 billion in 69 companies.
