Who we partner with

🤝

M&A Brokers

Business brokers with lower middle-market listings in infrastructure, energy, or healthcare services. We are an active, well-capitalized buyer with a 48-hour response commitment.

🏦

Investment Banks

Boutique advisory firms running sell-side processes for $1M–$10M EBITDA businesses in our sectors. We close efficiently and offer founder-friendly permanent capital structures.

⚖️

Legal Counsel

M&A attorneys, transaction counsel, and regulatory specialists supporting our deal process. We work efficiently with experienced deal counsel and have clear document preferences.

📊

Lenders & Capital

Bank and non-bank lenders, SBA specialists, and co-investment partners providing deal financing. We underwrite at 2.0–3.5× EBITDA and prefer clean, conservative structures.

A note on what makes us different as a buyer: We have no fund lifecycle that will force a sale. There is no LP redemption window, no end-of-fund pressure, no moment where someone at LSG needs to generate a return event. We are the permanent owner — which makes us a materially different kind of buyer for founders who care about what happens after closing. For your clients evaluating multiple offers, that distinction is worth a conversation.

Send us a teaser

Fill out the form with as much or as little detail as you have at this stage. A teaser, CIM, or deal summary works — we will confirm receipt and provide an initial response within 48 business hours.

We respond to every broker submission with a clear yes, no, or next step. If the deal isn't in our lane, we'll tell you directly and often suggest who might be better positioned.

Our 48-Hour Commitment

Every deal submission to this portal reaches our principals directly. We review every teaser and respond within 48 business hours — with a real answer, not an auto-acknowledgment.
