Paragon Acquisition Criteria

Paragon is always looking to invest or acquire high quality businesses with scalable business models run by passionate, focused operators with an owner mindset. We are very selective in our acquisitions because we envision owning our business for decades and take a hands-off approach in the day to day operations of those businesses. 

We are not industry agnostic; we simply look for quality companies run by driven, honest people with a culture of integrity and creativity. Expect nothing less from Paragon.

While our structure is corporate our approach is a partnership. We view our businesses and managers as partners, and want them to run their businesses as if it were a standalone company while Paragon absorbs the time and expenses of corporate overhead. 

Our acquisition criteria can be summarized by the following framework:

• We seek companies with a demonstrable track record of revenues and positive operating earnings, or the ability to generate operating earnings as a result of being part of Paragon. 

• We seek companies with management in place. We don’t supply managers.

• We seek long-term partnerships – we buy for keeps. We are not a private equity firm. We want to own operating companies indefinitely.

• Our ideal business size will have revenues between $10 - $50 million. 

Our due diligence process is quick, and our terms are clear and transparent. If you are interested or would like to simply learn more about us, please drop us a line at info@pgntgroup.com
