Anvil Capital

About The Fund

Anvil Capital is a private equity firm based in Boston, Massachusetts with a focus on investing in business services and niche manufacturing companies located in the Northeastern United States. They specialize in shaping small companies with the goal of maximizing their sales and earnings potential, and have been applying their strategic, operational, and financial expertise for over two decades. As an operationally and entrepreneurially focused firm, Anvil Capital ensures that their portfolio companies are well-equipped with the right people, systems, and financial resources to experience transformative growth. They target companies that can secure a #1 or #2 market position, with EBITDA ranging from $1 million to $3 million and an EBITDA margin of over 15%. Anvil Capital is adept at actively pursuing add-on acquisitions and seeks high potential small platform companies that meet specific criteria. For instance, prospective businesses should ideally be located in commercial areas such as Connecticut and Western Massachusetts, or in the Greater Boston Metro Area, operate with a non-union workforce, earn revenues of over $2 million, and have a significant portion of their earnings stemming from recurring service and maintenance. Anvil Capital steers clear of turnarounds, early-stage companies, and those within high technology, real estate, and healthcare sectors. Since its inception in 2001, Anvil Capital has completed 21 deals, including 7 platform companies and 14 add-on acquisitions, demonstrating their seasoned experience and successful track record. Some of their recent acquisitions include companies like Air Temp Mechanical Services, Inc. and Leahy Landscaping, Inc. Anvil Capital's investment range is singular, with both minimum and maximum investment caps set at $5.8 million, highlighting a dedicated investment scale and a clear focus on early-stage ventures within their industry expertise.
