Background
Lucas Rogers is a Partner on the Private Equity investment team at Harvest Partners, a New York-based middle-market private equity firm founded in 1981 by Harvey Mallement and Harvey Wertheim. He joined the firm in 2018 and is focused on Harvest's Healthcare Services vertical. He was promoted from Vice President to Principal in November 2023 and then elevated to Partner in the firm's firmwide promotions announced on January 20, 2026.
Before Harvest, Rogers was an Associate at Oak Hill Advisors, where he focused on distressed debt and special-situations investing. Earlier in his career he was an Associate at H.I.G. Capital and an Analyst at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, giving him experience across both credit/special situations and control private equity.
Rogers holds a B.S. in Economics from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, an M.S. in Finance from George Washington University, and an M.B.A. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
At Harvest, he has participated in a number of the firm's notable platform investments — including Med-Metrix, Yellowstone Landscape, Integrity Marketing Group, and Galway Insurance Holdings — and he serves on the board of Med-Metrix, a healthcare revenue-cycle-management company.
Investment Thesis & Focus
- Invests through Harvest Partners' private equity strategy, targeting control buyouts and structured/growth capital in profitable, established middle-market companies — not early-stage or venture deals.
- Personal vertical focus is Healthcare Services; the broader firm invests across business & industrial services, consumer, industrials, healthcare, and software.
- Harvest operates three synergistic strategies — Private Equity, Structured Capital, and Credit — allowing flexible capital solutions across the capital structure and across companies of varying scale.
- Firm scale supports sizable equity checks: Harvest Partners IX closed at $5.34 billion in 2023, so target investments are established platform companies capable of absorbing large equity and executing buy-and-build strategies.
- Preference for platform companies with proven cash flow, strong management, and roll-up/organic-growth potential (evidenced by acquisitive platforms like Integrity Marketing Group and Yellowstone Landscape).
Notable Investments
- Med-Metrix — Healthcare revenue-cycle-management (RCM) services company; Rogers holds a board seat.
- Yellowstone Landscape — One of the largest commercial landscaping companies in the U.S.; a buy-and-build platform.
- Integrity Marketing Group — Leading distributor of life and health insurance and provider of wealth/retirement solutions; a rapid acquirer/consolidator.
- Galway Insurance Holdings — Insurance brokerage and consulting platform (business & insurance services).
