Prides Capital's investing philosophy is "private equity-like investing in the public markets, through strategic block investments. We look for companies of high quality which we can purchase below their intrinsic values, and with which we can create an active partnership with management to add and create value. Strategically positioned in a sector of the market with a significant valuation gap and limited analyst coverage, our experienced management team operates with a sustainable competitive advantage."
