Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much control will we retain over our company
after your investment?

Pavilis typically takes a minority or majority stake, depending on the specific situation. We aim to be collaborative partners, supporting your vision while providing strategic guidance. The exact control structure will be negotiated as part of the investment terms.

2. What value does your firm bring beyond capital?

We offer operational expertise, industry connections, and strategic guidance. Our team can assist with areas such as financial management, market expansion, M&A opportunities, and talent acquisition. We also provide access to our network of industry experts and potential customers.

3. What is your typical investment horizon?

Our investment horizon is usually 3-7 years, but this can vary based on the company's needs and market conditions. We're focused on sustainable growth rather than quick exits.

4. How involved will you be in our day-to-day operations?

We typically take a board seat and work closely with management on strategic decisions. However, we trust the existing management to handle day-to-day operations. Our level of involvement can be tailored to your company's needs and preferences.

5. What happens if we disagree on major business decisions?

We strive for alignment from the outset and believe in open communication. Our partnership agreement will outline decision-making processes, including how disagreements are resolved. We aim to find mutually beneficial solutions through collaborative discussion.

6. How do you approach exit strategies?

We begin discussing potential exit strategies early in our partnership. This could involve an IPO, sale to a strategic buyer, or secondary sale to another PE firm. We work collaboratively with you to determine the best path forward as the company grows and market conditions evolve.

7. What financial reporting and governance changes
should we expect?

We typically implement more robust financial reporting and governance structures to support growth and prepare for potential future transactions. This often includes regular board meetings, audited financial statements, and key performance indicator (KPI) tracking. We'll work with you to ensure these changes enhance rather than burden your operations.

8. How do you support companies during economic
downturns or industry-specific challenges?

We have experience guiding companies through various economic cycles and industry disruptions. Our approach includes maintaining strong cash reserves, diversifying revenue streams, and identifying opportunities that arise during challenging times. We leverage our network and resources to help our portfolio companies navigate and emerge stronger from difficult periods.

9. What happens to the existing management team
post-investment?

We typically aim to retain and support the existing management team, as they are crucial to the company's success. In some cases, we may work with you to identify areas where additional expertise could benefit the company, potentially bringing in new talent to complement the existing team. Any changes would be discussed and agreed upon collaboratively.

10. How do you handle additional capital needs for
growth or acquisitions?

We're committed to supporting the growth of our portfolio companies. If additional capital is needed for organic growth initiatives or strategic acquisitions, we can provide further funding or help secure it through our network of co-investors and lenders. We'll work with you to determine the best funding structure that aligns with the company's goals and maintains a healthy capital structure.
