Vision Capital's Investment Advantages
Vision believes its investment philosophy and structure are differentiated from most other small cap focused investors, and is a true value-added investor.
Equity Investors: We generally provide equity investments rather than burdensome convertible debt investments, which tend to align our funds' interests with those of management and existing shareholders.
"Private Equity" Mentality: We base our investment decisions on our due diligence process and fundamental analysis, not on trading markets. While our approach can be similar to that of a private equity firm, we seek to make investments that monetize within two to four years. We also negotiate for typical private equity covenants such as board representation, etc.
Flexible Investment Size: We generally make initial investments of $3 to $20 million with future rounds of financing tied to fixed reinvestment rights.
Capital Markets Expertise: We can assist portfolio companies in navigating the small cap financial markets.
Quick and Efficient Process: We typically can fund a company within four to six weeks of signing a term sheet since we are a principal and usually the sole or lead investor.
Long-Term Investor: We are long-term investors with a two to four year investment horizon.
