Friedman Fleischer & Lowe (FFL) company profile

FFL was formed in 1997 to invest in middle-market companies where the firm’s substantial strategic and operating expertise can help management accelerate growth and build better businesses. FFL's capital comes largely from U.S. and international institutions: public and private pension funds, endowments, foundations, and financial institutions. FFL has invested prudently for over 20 years, partnering with strong management teams and other investors to establish a leading track record in middle-market private equity investing. FFL has produced attractive returns for its investors through up and down markets and across a range of industries by patiently focusing its efforts on good businesses with attractive returns on capital and strong growth prospects. FFL is currently investing out of a $2.0 billion fund raised in 2015. The firm generally commits $50-250 million to individual transactions and has the ability to make larger commitments in selected circumstances.
