Lynx Equity is a Toronto-based private equity fund founded in 2007 that specializes in acquisitions. Focused on mid-market companies, Lynx Equity is dedicated to building value by leveraging opportunistic acquisitions, strategic leadership, and financial expertise. With a presence in North America and Europe, their investments span a diverse range of industries including Software (Web Marketplace SaaS, etc.), Business Solutions, FinTech & Financial Services, Hardware & Manufacturing, Energy, and Food & Beverage. Their philosophy is rooted in a long-term, buy-and-hold strategy, which is reflected in their portfolio of stable businesses that have sustained long records of stability. Lynx Equity targets small to medium-sized businesses, often those with retiring owners, seeking to ensure a continuity of legacy and operations. Their approach is human-centric, as emphasized by Brad Nathan, the President of Lynx Equity, who has highlighted the importance of a personal touch in the business succession planning process. This investor-centric approach has garnered positive testimonials from business owners and managers who have experienced growth and positive changes post-acquisition. As stated on their website, with more than 45 businesses in their portfolio and an aggregate $800M in revenue, Lynx Equity positions itself as fostering sustainable partnerships with a focus on putting people first—an ethos that sets them apart from the often impersonal landscape of private equity.
