Oceanus Holdings

Oceanus Holdings is an active, and highly experienced private investment firm focused on equity and debt transactions in the Southeastern United States. The majority of our efforts focus on established companies with proven recurring revenue models. Most of our investments take the form of an outright acquisition or majority control. In many of our prior investments, we assumed the role of the senior management team. However, we have also financed transactions that created a partnership with existing management teams. Upon initial completion of a transaction, our overall success is a direct result of our ability to generate both organic growth as well as identify, finance, and integrate complimentary acquisitions.
