CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jul 6, 2015) - Alaris Royalty Corp. ("Alaris" or the "Corporation") (TSX:AD) is pleased to announce that Mr. Gregg Delcourt has joined Alaris as Senior Vice President, Small Cap Investments to lead a new division focused on making investments of up to $20 million into private companies. The creation of this new division is in response to strong demand from private small cap companies looking to partner with Alaris that do not meet Alaris' current investment size criteria.
"Due to Alaris' rapid growth over the last five years, many attractive transactions that come to us through our transaction referral network are now too small for us to consider", said Steve King, President and Chief Executive Officer, Alaris.
Mr. King continues, "We believe that the market for Alaris' unique non-control capital for smaller businesses, particularly in the United States, is very large and underserved. In order to take advantage of our leadership position in the industry, Alaris is in the process of forming a division that will actively seek out transactions with an investment size of up to $20 million. The management and the board of directors of Alaris have determined that because of the robust and growing nature of our larger dollar sized deal flow that a distinct management team be hired to pursue the small cap opportunities".
Effective July 1st, 2015, Mr. Gregg Delcourt was hired to head the small cap division and its transaction team and will expand the staff in his group as transactions and revenue dictate. Gregg comes to Alaris with more than 17 years of investment experience, with the last 11 years as an investment banking executive where he held the position of Managing Director for the past five and a half years and 6 years in transaction advisory services prior thereto.
The small cap division will keep all of the same strict criteria and economic terms that have created value for Alaris shareholders for the past eleven years. The small cap space is robust and Alaris expects to use its competitive advantages to be a leader in this segment.
