Kingswood Capital Management, LP (“Kingswood”), a Los Angeles-based, operationally focused private equity firm, recently acquired Kodak Alaris from the United Kingdom Pension Protection Fund in August 2024. Kingswood sought an experienced lender with extensive international financing capabilities able to leverage working capital and fixed assets around the globe, and recognized FGI as the ideal partner.
FGI worked closely with Kodak Alaris and Kingswood to structure a flexible, multi-jurisdictional asset-based revolver and term loan to help finance the acquisition and support ongoing working capital requirements.
