OUR APPROACH

“[Our] favorite holding period is forever. We are just the opposite of those who hurry to sell and book profits when companies perform well but who tenaciously hang on to businesses that disappoint. Peter Lynch aptly likens such behavior to cutting the flowers and watering the weeds.“ —Warren Buffett Letter to Shareholders, 1988.

Thematic Focus

Healthspan vs. Lifespan
Focus is on extending Healthspan by reducing biological (vs. chronological) age. Biological age can be scientifically measured and slowed through use of therapeutic products, different care services and lifestyle changes

Large but Fragmented Healthspan Market
Large, fast growing market with many different categories, comprised of many single product companies. Sector is fragmented, presenting opportunity to build market leader through acquisitions

Consumer companies
Consumer interest in Healthspan and Longevity spans generations as people of all ages increasingly prioritize Health & Wellness and spend more in related products and services year over year

Thesis-driven Acquisition

Deep Sector Relationships
Extensive network of entrepreneurs and industry experts drives proprietary acquisition opportunities

Disciplined, analytically-driven approach
Proprietary pipeline of profitable companies with earnings, cash flow and growth

Multi-product Ecosystem
Rather than unaffiliated portfolio of single product companies, opportunity to create multi-product ecosystem of related divisions within one company

Differentiated Operational Approach

Customer Acquisition
Integrate product and services offerings to create multiple gateways into one multi-product ecosystem

Customer Retention
Build ongoing relationships with consumers through experiences shaped by content, technology, continuous monitoring and coaching, and community

LTV > CAC
Multiple entry points and integrated consumer experiences will result in more frequent and deeper engagement leading to increased life-time value
