Partner Event: Non-Control Investments in Government Contractor Businesses

While buyers typically make control investments when purchasing a government contractor, in the last decade there has been growth in institutional and private investors making minority investments in growth-oriented government contractors who are not yet ready for an exit. These non-control investments can provide needed growth capital and management talent as well as potentially some liquidity. The terms for these investments differ significantly from control buy-outs and are highly negotiated. In some cases, these investments can create significant tax, affiliation and foreign ownership problems.

Our panel of experts will discuss the current climate and key terms for these non-control investments and critical do’s and don’ts for companies and investors.
