A new firm launched by former H.I.G. Capital and Comvest Partners executives set a $250 million target for its debut fund.
Probitas Partners is listed as an associated broker or dealer on the fund, according to a Form D filed on Jan. 11.
The new firm, Hidden Harbor Capital Partners, pursues lower-middle-market North American companies with $50 million to $500 million of revenue and EBITDA of as much as $25 million, its website says.
The Fort Lauderdale, Florida, firm specializes in acquiring underperforming businesses, which may include corporate carve-outs. Hidden Harbor does not seek to acquire assets sold by other financial sponsors.
John Caple, a former partner at Comvest Partners, and David Block, a former H.I.G. operating partner,  launched Hidden Harbor in May. Another former H.I.G. managing director, Chris Paladino, joined the firm as a founding partner earlier this year.
