An investment firm dedicated to identifying and partnering with the best business platforms for capital allocation

Countervail is an investment firm that seeks to actively manage a concentrated portfolio of publicly traded small and micro-cap equities. Through long-term and collaborative partnership with management teams, the firm's objective is to generate high absolute returns for its investors by advocating for best practices in capital allocation.

​

We believe that this is best accomplished by taking substantial ownership positions in small businesses that are under-followed, illiquid, and frequently influenced by non-economic market behavior. Our portfolio of businesses will tend to generate substantial free cash flow, drive consistent increases in asset utilization, frequently re-purchase shares, and engage in rare and selective acquisitions.
