| IDEAL INVESTMENT CANDIDATE
Aerostar Capital provides equity capital, plus the strategic and operational support needed to acquire and grow successful aerospace suppliers. The ideal investment candidate is an "orphan" or "non-core" division trapped within a larger corporation or a large private supplier to the aerospace industry seeking significant growth capital. This candidate business sells products and/or services to customers in the commercial aviation, defense, government, and/or space markets. Candidate businesses will have annual revenues of at least $100 million, good cash flow, solid relations with a diverse set of global customers, a clearly focused and competitively sustainable growth strategy, and a strong and committed management team. Often candidate companies have the potential to accelerate key industry trends including supplier consolidation, out sourcing, lean production, globalization, and value-added processing. These companies have the potential to become clear market leaders by acquiring weaker competitors and/or closely adjacent businesses. We seek strong managers as our investment partners and we reward them with a significant ownership stake in the new company. We assure that the objectives and rewards for the equity sponsors and senior managers are fully aligned. We invest in established aerospace suppliers. We do not invest in aerospace start ups or new ventures.
