About Cornerstone Capital Partners

Cornerstone Capital Partners is a private investment firm established in 1990 focusing on niche industrial, manufacturing, distribution, or service businesses with sustainable competitive advantages and growth opportunities within the United States and Canada. They target middle-market companies with revenues ranging from $10 million to $150 million, EBITDA greater than $3 million, and a track record of strong and profitable growth. Their investment thesis revolves around partnering with companies that possess a defensible market position and are led by experienced management teams. Cornerstone is oriented towards long-term business value creation rather than short-term gains. They strive to work closely with management to support strategic and operational initiatives that drive growth and enhance profitability. The firm targets sectors where they believe they can leverage their operational experience and industry knowledge but explicitly avoids investing in real estate, life sciences, or technology sectors with the risk of technological obsolescence. Their approach combines active ownership with strategic guidance, aiming to facilitate both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Cornerstone prides itself on their principled investment philosophy and their dedication to building enduring value for their stakeholders. Their current and realized portfolio includes companies from a diverse range of industries underscoring their broad investment mandate within their selected investment criteria. They ensure a disciplined investment process and are committed to fostering sustainable growth within their partner companies.
