Wakefield James Management Group LLC
 Wakefield James Management Group LLC Investment ManagersFinance Wakefield James specializes in the acquisition of high-end millwork and niche building product manufacturing and distribution companies with revenues between $10 million and $100 million. The firm is particularly interested in companies that possess both internal growth opportunities and strategic add-on acquisition opportunities. They seek to acquire both owner-operated companies and non-core corporate divisions. Wakefield James prefers to partner with senior management in their acquisitions, but they will consider acquisition opportunities where the owner-operator is retiring and key employees must be recruited to fill critical management roles. The firm looks for companies with revenues of $10 million to $100 million and operating margins of 10% or more. Wakefield James prefers to invest in companies with proven profitability for the past three years and that have future expectations of positive, stable cash flow. Although not limited to these areas, they prefer to invest in the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, New England and Mid-West. | Private Equity Investor | - |
