EdgeLine Capital Partners is pleased to congratulate Lantern Capital Partners on their successful final close of Lantern Capital Partners Fund I. Investors included a diverse cross section of institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, fund of funds, wealth advisors, and family offices.
“We have been privileged to work with Lantern on its successful fundraise,” said Joe Silver, co-founder and managing partner at EdgeLine Capital Partners. “Lantern has built its reputation by partnering with management teams to patiently navigate through the complexity of financial and operational turnarounds, executing on opportunities that have enabled Lantern to drive top-tier results for their investors.” Andy Mitchell, Lantern’s founder remarked, “Our strategy is to seek control-oriented investments that present deep value, where we can identify a roadmap to unlock that value through both operational improvements and balance sheet restructuring.”
Joe Silver added, “There are few GPs that combine the specialized expertise, decades of experience, and depth of industry relationships which define Lantern. It’s this combination of talents that allows them to continue to source unique non-auction investment opportunities. We look forward to working closely with them for years to come.”
