Disciplined and value-added approach

Utilizing the extensive private equity and direct management experience among IOP’s investment team and Board of Operating Principals, IOP has developed its disciplined investment approach based on five key elements:

• Targeted investment strategy focused on operational improvement and sales growth opportunities of fundamentally sound businesses in the manufacturing and value-added distribution sectors
• Detailed, "hands-on" due diligence led by senior-level transaction and operational professionals
• Up-front development of operating plan (roadmap to value creation)
• Utilize strong key managers, decisive execution and active oversight
• Realize value through sales and earnings growth
