ARC Document Solutions
New Harbor team members, while employed at a former firm, partnered with the founders of ARC Document Technologies to help the company nearly triple in size through both organic growth and more than 50 add-on acquisitions over a five-year period culminating in an initial public offering (NYSE: ARC). Growth continued to accelerate during the two years following the IPO while the investment was exited through two successful secondary offerings. Cumulatively, the business had a five-fold increase in size during the period of our involvement. Mohan Chandramohan, Founder and former CEO of ARC, continues to be an Executive Advisor to New Harbor Capital.
“New Harbor’s team members were strategic thinkers who really took the time to understand our business. They brought outstanding independent directors into the board, and contributed industry-specific strategic value to our company. In the end, their guidance was instrumental in preparing ARC to become a public company.” *
