Unique Investment Perspective
CoBe Capital specializes in the acquisition and operation of non-core and
underperforming business units in the Americas and Europe from leading
global corporations
We are a dynamic and nimble, private global investment firm, with corporate headquarters
in New York City and satellite offices in: Cologne, Germany and Zurich, Switzerland.
Building upon earlier successes and the bedrock of a portfolio of companies delivering
solid financial results, and a permanent capital base, we seek to expand our existing
portfolio of operating companies with the intent to grow these businesses for the long
term.
“As a family office focused on long-term operational value
creation, we have a unique investment perspective that allows us
to see opportunity in troubled business units that others may
miss.”

COBE CAPITAL:
Considerations for the Corporate Seller
Our goal is to customize the transaction process to meet your unique objectives
Overlapping customers, vendors, joint marketing agreements and reputation are all considerations in a divestiture - We
carefully listen to the specific objectives of the corporate seller, and tailor each transaction to meet their goals
CATALYSTS FOR A TRANSACTION
SELLER GOALS FOR A NON-CORE DIVESTITURE
 Legacy business that no longer fits current strategy
 Accelerated transaction timeline
 Non-core operation within a large strategic acquisition
 Minimal disruption to operations and employees
 Non-core geography creating a distraction
 Sensitivity to local customs and practices
 Sub-scale business with excess overhead
 Desire for an ongoing business relationship
 Captive supplier that had been acquired defensively
 Confidentiality
 Distribution-arm creating conflict with customers
 Certainty of closing
 Prohibitively high costs to close or exit an operation
 Preserving or transferring brand equity
"Our core thesis is that orphaned business units tend to be
starved for resources and under the ownership of a focused,
entrepreneurial investor like CoBe Capital, they can achieve
better results.”
DARREN MCKENZIE CHAFFEE, CFA, CPA
Managing Director, Global Mergers and Acquisitions

References from Corporate Sellers
What it is like to work with CoBe Capital:
“Over the years, we have helped a lot of
companies sell
complex/underperforming assets and in our view, CoBe Capital’s willingness to
invest the time, energy and patience to put a deal together in challenging
circumstances and your sensitivity to the needs of a corporate seller are rare.”
IAN MACDONELL
Managing Director, Crosbie & Company
“Where there is a continuing commercial relationship with the carved out entity,
the operating background of the sponsor is paramount.”

Guiding Principles
We strive to achieve long-term growth through each operating company based on lean and
continuous improvement business philosophies
SEAMLESS TRANSACTIONS
FOCUS ON THE EMPLOYEES
CoBe understands the challenges that confront a seller during a
sale process and dedicates the resources necessary to ensure a
seamless transaction on an ambitious time frame
Our transaction philosophy centers on core values of speed,
communication, and honesty, enabling transactions to run
smoothly and which are favorably viewed as a positive and
rejuvenating experience by employees
FOCUS ON THE “THE VOICE OF THE CUSTOMER”
As we believe that employees are the most valuable asset of
any operation, a concerted effort is made to retain key
performers, as their participation is integral to the transaction
process and the ongoing performance of the company
CoBe’s goal in every transaction is to bring certainty to a
business to assure the marketplace of its stability
Every effort is made to assure customers that service
commitments will be met and honored and CoBe is committed
to meet or exceed customer expectations that existed prior to
the acquisition
BUILDING LONG-TERM VALUE
We are a family office and as such, we do not have a fund with
outside capital. This means that unlike traditional private equity
firms, CoBe has the expectation to hold investments for the
long term.
This perspective also allows us to maintain our focus on longterm growth and value creation, rather than short-term goals
with predefined exit strategies
OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
The guiding principle we instill in all our operating companies
is a culture of lean management and continuous
improvement. These tools enable our companies to focus on
the key performance indicators that matter for their business
and improve performance through enhanced execution
“CoBe’s goal with every
transaction is a seamless
process that preserves
value for all parties.”
HENNING WALF
Managing Director, Europe

Case Study: Stark Manufacturing
CoBe helped this Arkansas-based tube and hose manufacturer streamline costs to win new
customers and get its business growing
COMPANY OVERVIEW
TOPGRADING MANAGEMENT
Stark is a leader in the design and manufacture of both high and
low volume tube and hose assemblies for a variety of industries,
including automotive, aerospace, agricultural, heavy duty and
military
To ensure the sustainable implementation of best-in-class lean
manufacturing practices, CoBe Capital appointed Shuja Haque, a
seasoned operator with experience at Federal Mogul and Pace
Industries, to take the reins
SITUATION AT TIME OF ACQUISITION
Stark was able to retrain the operators on new processes to
dramatically increase labor productivity
The organizational skill-set was so low that Stark was not fully
taking advantage of the automation capability in place and was
burning through a quarter-million dollars a month as smaller
customers distracted from the core business
Developing more efficient batch sizes, production flows and
changeovers, where the first part meets spec, are all contributing
cost savings
CUSTOMER RATIONALIZATION
FUTURE GROWTH
The first step to turnaround was to look at customers account
by account and shed all the low or negative margin business
Stark is now focused on further optimizing production to
increase productivity of its current staffing and lay a foundation
for the future growth of this American Manufacturing success
story
This allowed Stark to then right-size the organization and reduce
price to win more business with bigger customers
“Through our implementation of lean, we went from a people-intensive
process to an engineered process, harnessing the untapped potential of our
tools and equipment.”

companies he owns. Mr. Cohen’s fundamental operating philosophy is lean
management and continuous improvement and his companies use these
