• Saratoga Investment focuses on the lower end of the U.S. middle market, providing private credit and equity capital primarily through senior loans, unitranche loans, mezzanine debt, second-lien loans, subordinated debt, and equity co-investments.
• The firm typically looks for companies with $10 million to $150 million of revenue, EBITDA of at least $2 million, recurring revenue, strong margins, stable historical performance, modest capex and working-capital requirements, and management teams with meaningful ownership.
• Saratoga’s current investment-profile page says it typically makes $60 million to $75 million investments in leveraged and management buyouts, recapitalizations, debt refinancings, growth financings, acquisition financings, and transitional financings.
• Steenkamp’s stated view in an AICA Q&A: “What allows us to succeed in the lower middle market is our best-in-class team and underwriting track record.”
• He also emphasized that smaller companies can be attractive because their management teams often “know their business inside and out,” and because lower-middle-market credit agreements can provide stronger lender protections and earlier warning signs than larger broadly syndicated loans.
• This is not a seed or angel-investing profile. The verified public record points to Saratoga as a regulated BDC/private-credit platform serving established middle-market businesses.
