Founded
in 2007

As a pioneer in private credit investing, we have built a long-term track record through multiple economic and credit cycles.

Core middle market focus

We invest in the core middle market, targeting companies with earnings of $10 million to $50 million. These mid-sized companies are often overlooked by other lenders, resulting in favorable lending terms and important structural protections that help us preserve capital.

Target
cash-flowing companies

We target profitable companies with leading market positions, strong management teams, and steady cash flows. We often act as a strategic partner to help drive growth.

$26 billion
of capital deployed

We have completed 790 investments across the capital structure. Our industries of focus include healthcare, government services, business services, consumer, and software & technology.

$10 billion
of investable capital

We serve a diversified investor base through multiple investment offerings. Investable capital includes client gross asset values, unfunded commitments, joint ventures, undrawn available leverage and our specialty finance business.

240+ unique private equity sponsors

A core focus is on companies owned by established middle market private equity sponsors with a track record of supporting their portfolio companies.

Average
30 years of experience

Our senior investment professionals average 30 years of industry experience. Several of our senior team members have worked together since the mid-1990s.

Collaborating across 7 offices

Our headquarters in Miami is supplemented by offices in New York, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Amsterdam, and Zurich.

Collaborate. Thrive. Repeat.

PennantPark was founded in 2007 as an independent middle market credit provider. We provide institutions and individuals with targeted exposure to the core middle market, a segment that offers persistently attractive investment opportunities. Our investment offerings include business development companies, private capital funds, joint ventures, and other specialized funds.

For our success, we credit relationships.

PennantPark provides tailored financing solutions across the capital structure to profitable, growing, and cash-flowing companies in the core middle market. We often participate in a company’s first round of institutional investment, acting as a strategic partner to help drive growth. These mid-sized companies are often overlooked by other lenders, resulting in favorable lending terms and important structural protections that help us preserve capital.

Our origination engine is often fueled by long-term partnerships with hundreds of middle market private equity sponsors. These senior-level relationships have been built over decades at PennantPark and predecessor firms. As a result, we are able to take advantage of exclusive and unique opportunities, along with the repeat business afforded to a trusted incumbent lender.
