## About Porthcawl Holdings

Porthcawl Holdings is a private equity investment firm headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, founded by Partners Bret Piatt and Huw Edwards. It focuses on technology-powered businesses that simplify operations and boost productivity, targeting either early-stage cloud software startups or established, cash-generating companies.

The firm pursues two strategies: pre-seed and seed investments in cloud software technology businesses with strong founding teams, and control buyouts of cash-flow-positive B2B SaaS companies that have product-market fit but lack strategic leadership or a growth-focused go-to-market plan.

Its portfolio includes CyberFortress, a backup and disaster recovery company formed through the 2021 merger of Jungle Disk, LiveVault, KeepItSafe, and OffsiteDataSync, where Edwards serves as Board Director, and Modern Managed IT, a managed IT services provider where Piatt sits on the board following a 2020 seed round led by Geekdom Fund.

Porthcawl also holds minority stakes in several Geekdom Fund portfolio companies through SPVs, including Flash Parking. Specific check sizes are not publicly disclosed, though the firm's dual focus suggests flexible deal structuring based on company stage and capital needs.
