Founded 2005, Teakwood Capital is a private equity firm that invests exclusively in profitable, high-growth Texas-based businesses. The firm invests equity capital primarily in businesses with $500,000 to $3.0 million of EBITDA. Teakwood focuses on management buyouts as well as growth equity investments in companies in Texas, Arizona, Arkansas, New Mexico, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Missouri, and Colorado. The firm is management friendly and provides the resources and experience to lead growth equity investments from $1.0 million to $4.0 million and management buyouts between $4 million and $20.0 million. Investment targets are companies that typically have revenue under $25.0 million. The firm is open to most industries where the companies meet Teakwood's criteria, but does not consider early stage or seed capital financings, energy exploration and speculation, restaurants, or real estate principal investments.
