Happy Friday and thanks to the 38 new subscribers who joined since the last edition. We’re the only news source tracking lower middle market M&A. Our goal is to keep you up to date on the latest information/transactions in the market and highlight market participants that are doing interesting things in the space.


This Week’s Feature

On the heels of last week’s search fund edition, we wanted to highlight an active search fund in this week’s edition: Deer Point Partners. Tim Buehn is the Founder and Managing Director of Deer Point Partners. Prior to founding the firm, Tim served in the Navy as a fighter pilot, operations officer, and safety office before embarking on an MBA degree through Harvard Business School. While pursuing his MBA, Tim spent time as a summer associate at McKinsey and at a tech-enabled, mortgage platform, UpEquity.

Given his background as a collaborative team builder and leader in both combat and the business world, Tim decided to dedicate the next portion of his life to acquiring and operating a high-quality company in the B2B services space. He is supported by an array of experienced operators and institutional investors including Pacific Lake Partners, Trilogy Search Partners, Miramar Equity Partners, and Aspect Investors. We look forward to following Tim’s journey as an operator where he has no shortage of lessons he can apply from his experience in both the public and private sector.
