Background
Kevin Moses is a private-equity investment professional who joined Argosy Private Equity as a Vice President in August 2023. In that role he is responsible for sourcing and assessing new investment opportunities, underwriting and executing deals, and monitoring portfolio companies. Argosy is a lower-middle-market private equity firm that provides both debt and equity capital to established U.S. businesses, so Moses's work centers on control and growth investments in profitable companies — a very different mandate from the "angel / seed" label in the source stub.
Before Argosy, Moses spent time as an MBA intern at Meta and earned his MBA from Columbia Business School. Prior to business school he was a Senior Associate at Waud Capital Partners, the Chicago-based growth-oriented private equity firm (founded 1993, ~$4.6B in cumulative capital commitments, focused on healthcare and software/technology & business services). This is the connection behind the stub's Waud Capital email and phone number.
Moses began his finance career as an Investment Banking Analyst in the Technology Group at Jefferies. He holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. Personal notes from Argosy's announcement describe him as an avid Philadelphia sports fan and a hiking enthusiast.
Investment Thesis & Focus
- Invests through Argosy Private Equity in established, cash-flow-positive lower-middle-market companies, not early-stage startups.
- Target financials: roughly $15–$100M revenue and $3–$10M EBITDA, with experienced management teams in place.

- Sectors (Argosy): specialized manufacturing, business and industrial services, franchising, value-added distribution, aviation products and services, and transportation/logistics.

- (Historical, at Waud Capital) exposure to healthcare and software/technology & business services buyouts.
Notable Investments
