Investment Strategy
Atlas FRM LLC focuses on private equity investments in privately held middle-market companies undergoing financial or operational distress, seeking to acquire controlling interests. The firm is industry-agnostic but has expertise in sectors such as building materials, energy, chemicals, metals, packaging, and paper. Atlas targets situations with complex problems masking intrinsic value, such as bankruptcy, restructuring, or spin-offs, and seeks to drive operational turnarounds, financial improvements, and strategic growth.
