WELCOME TO RLJ EQUITY PARTNERS

RLJ Equity Partners is a middle market private equity firm founded by Robert L. Johnson and The Carlyle Group. We focus on generating long-term capital appreciation through control investments in profitable businesses where we are able to partner with proven management teams to enhance value and growth through a combination of strategic capital and operational insight.



Our firm primarily invests in North American companies with enterprise values between $50 million and $200 million and acquires control positions through traditional buy-outs, recapitalizations, and growth equity infusions. While our typical investment size is between $20 million and $45 million per transaction, we have the ability to pursue larger transactions in collaboration with our strategic partners. By leveraging our extensive network of formal and informal relationships, we are also able to bring significant business insight to the investment process across a broad range of sectors, especially within our preferred industries which include:
     • Aerospace and Defense
     • Automotive and Transportation
     • Business Services
  • Consumer and Retail
  • General Industrial

  • Media & Telecom

 RLJ Equity Partners seeks to become the pre-eminent middle-market private equity firm.   We will generate superior returns for our investors by leveraging the firm’s relationships to source proprietary investment opportunities, partnering with proven and motivated management teams and consistently improving the performance of our portfolio companies. 

 

We will continue to build a team of diverse, intelligent, hard working individuals of the highest integrity that are committed to maintaining an environment of mutual respect, continuous learning and honest dialogue.  We will demand personal and professional excellence in all of our endeavors and are committed to positively impacting our community.
