Equitime Capital

Equitime Capital is a private investment firm based in Houston. We partner with founders, families, and management teams of established lower middle market companies seeking a long-term capital partner.

Our approach is straightforward. We invest our own capital alongside a network of long-term investors to support ownership transitions, recapitalizations, and growth initiatives. We focus on businesses with strong fundamentals, stable customer relationships, and opportunities to build long-term value.
