Description:

Eschelon Energy Partners is a private equity source of capital for the North American energy industry providing its partners the opportunity to participate in the growth and volatility of the sector. Eschelon is geared for less competitive, smaller capitalization ($50-$250M) investment opportunities that have a base of existing cash flow but are in need of growth capital. Critical parameters used by Eschelon in its evaluation of such opportunities are the quality of management, viability of the business plan, value add of investment partners, and appropriate valuation and governance. Important to the success of Eschelon is its hands-on involvement in the execution of its portfolio companies' business plans and active influence on their corporate governance. Eschelon targets 'small-cap' businesses with enterprise values of less than $250 million across the energy value chain in the U.S. and Canada. Public markets generally do not provide an efficient market for small-cap energy-related issuers. At the same time, while billions of dollars of capital have been raised and is available for energy private equity and debt investment, the majority of this capital has been raised by 'mega' buyout funds with aggregate committed capital of $1 billion or more. Thomas S. Glanville, Managing Partner, has over 40 years of operational and finance experience throughout the the energy industry.
