ZS Fund

We are a private equity firm engaged in making long-term investments in successful middle-market companies. Since 1985, we have focused on transactions that provide liquidity to business owners while enabling them to maintain a significant ownership stake and keep their company independent. Our strengths are understanding the objectives of business owners, structuring transactions that respond to those objectives, and being constructive partners to help increase the value of the businesses in which we invest. ZS has expertise in a broad range of transactions and will structure a transaction that addresses your particular goals. We look for a handful of important characteristics in a potential investment candidate: ▪ Strong management ▪ Annual operating profit of at least $4 million (and generally up to $30 million) ▪ High return on capital relative to industry peers ▪ Strong market position ▪ Privately-held, or closely-held, publicly-traded companies
