FIDIA HOLDING’s investment decisions are driven by the following criteria:

1) Industrial sectors that present both medium and long term growth opportunities;

2) Companies that have demonstrated an ability to generate consistent cash flow and earnings, with a conservative balance sheet (little or no debt) and possess growth potential, but need experienced management skills and financial resources to fund such growth;

3) The potential benefits from working with Fidia Holding’s highly seasoned Management team with a proven track record of delivering results and the ability to contribute to the company’s value creation;

4) Governance based on participation on the Board of Directors, while also providing operational support to help the company’s growth.
