Value Creation Program
Linden has codified a value creation program for its investments in corporate divestitures and family-owned businesses. The goal is to align the objectives of the owners and managers around a specific value creation program that can be implemented within a four to seven year investment period. Operating and financial performance of the portfolio companies is improved and, in so doing, increases the intrinsic value of the business.

Upon the acquisition of a target business, Linden immediately begins working with existing management to execute the value creation program prepared during the due diligence process. Importantly, mutual understanding between investors and managers begins in the due diligence phase and applicable modules are selected. Key benchmarks are created, an implementation schedule is developed and exit planning begins.
