DESCRIPTION:

Date updated:09-03-2008

Blum Capital is a $2 billion dollar investment firm based in San Francisco.

The firm "only makes new investments in a small number of the companies it monitors each year. We expect to build a substantial position in each business, either through the acquisition of Strategic Blocks of common shares in the public market or in a privately negotiated transaction.

Blum Capital takes a substantial position in order to establish a productive “seat at the table.” We generally strive to be one of the largest shareholders and, on a friendly basis, seek Board representation, if we feel that it will enhance our ability to create value.

Our team of investment professionals monitors hundreds of companies in the publicly held small- and mid-cap markets and typically conducts on-site visits with the management teams of over 100 companies each year.

We continuously develop and revise a select list of companies which match our criteria: fundamentally good businesses that we believe are undervalued and, in some cases, in which our value-added strategies can be implemented and realized in a two to five year time period."
