I'm the founder of Lawrence Capital, an independent sponsor executing a multi-company HVAC and mechanical services roll-up across Texas and Hawaii. THE THESIS HVAC is one of the most fragmented service industries in the US. Thousands of profitable, owner-operated businesses with no succession plan and no path to an institutional exit. Lawrence Capital acquires, operates, and scales these businesses into a unified platform. The arbitrage between small business entry multiples (3x–4x SDE) and institutional exit multiples (6x–10x SDE) is where investor returns are generated.
