I got kind of a weird / socially awkward vibe from them on the multiple occasions I was across from them on the sellside. Just kinda strange folks. Not saying there’s anything inherently wrong with that of course (or that it reflects on the experience or investment performance), that’s just the vibe I’ve gotten from working with them multiple times.
On their investment strategy - they are notorious “bottom feeders” aka deep value aka lobbing in lowball bids that have a near zero chance of hitting.
any updates in 2026?

Only thing I got for you was that they were on a buyer list for a sell side I worked on in 2022. Recall limited interactions. Maybe they put in a 1st round bid and didn’t advance. They seemed like a standard JAMMBO from my experience with them. I think they have some industry niche or maybe some hook in that they have a special LP or billionaire as the main investor if I remember correctly. If you want to do PE I would think it’s worth consideration for a first job out of undergrad. Just would diligence well because given lack of “main path” as compared to IB, decent chance you’ll have to really work hard to advance there without as strong of an exit option pathway compared to banking. Either way good luck
