OFS Capital Corp

OFS Capital Corporation, a business development company, focuses on making direct investments, participating in investment funds, and facilitating bolt-on acquisitions. The firm offers adaptable capital solutions, primarily through debt financing and, to a lesser extent, minority equity investments, tailored for U.S.-based middle-market enterprises spanning a wide array of sectors. It explicitly avoids involvement in operational turnarounds or start-up businesses. For its direct investment activities, OFS Capital specializes in a range of transactions including debt and structured equity deals, corporate recapitalizations, refinancing initiatives, management and leveraged buyouts, acquisition financing, shareholder liquidity events, growth capital provisions, independent sponsor partnerships, Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), and minority investments within the lower middle market. The company targets industries such as aerospace and defense, business services, consumer goods and services, food and beverage, healthcare services, specialty chemicals, transportation and logistics, value-added distribution, franchising, and niche industrial manufacturing. Exclusively investing in companies based within the United States, OFS Capital seeks individual investments ranging from $5 million to $35 million. Target companies typically have revenues between $10 million and $200 million, an annual EBITDA exceeding $5 million, and an enterprise value between $10 million and $500 million. Specifically, its debt investment amounts generally fall between $5 million and $25 million. The firm employs a diverse suite of financial instruments, including senior secured and unitranche loans, first-lien, second-lien, and subordinated/mezzanine debt, as well as warrants, preferred equity, and common equity securities. OFS Capital is prepared to acquire both minority and majority ownership stakes in its portfolio companies and frequently co-invests with partners to mobilize additional capital.
