Birch Hill developed a relationship with one of the founders and made a majority investment in March 2006. Our investment thesis centered around the opportunity to invest in a market leader with high market share in an industry with significant barriers to entry and multiple opportunities for growth, including new product launches and geographic expansion.
ROI – During Birch Hill’s ownership BAM delivered an average annual ROE of 24% on a very consistent basis over 15 years. Birch Hill and the founder exited in 2021.
