About Z2 Investment Management
Z2 launched in 2022 to focus on lower middle market private debt and structured equity investments to US-based, non-sponsored companies. The firm makes investments ranging in size from $10MM to $50MM primarily in first lien term loans and preferred equity. Our target investment criteria are focused on identifying privately-held operating companies with $3-20 million of EBITDA, owned by families, management teams and/or small investor groups, and based in the United States. Typically, the companies that Z2 invests require capital beyond what bank financing sources offer, but whose owners are not ready for a sale of the business. We design our investments to meet the needs of our clients and work diligently to create structures that help companies achieve their goals. For more information, please visit us at www.z2mgmt.com
