Ten Oaks Group

At the heart of Ten Oaks Group is a culture centered on a unique, bespoke approach to corporate divestitures. Founded by Matt Magan and Mike Hahn, the firm recognized the need to supplant antiquated approaches to corporate carve-out buyouts with a strategy that embodies flexibility, speed, and certainty – qualities highly sought after by corporate sellers. This philosophy drives their mission to provide a solution-oriented and streamlined process for corporate partners, both domestically and internationally. Ten Oaks Group is exclusively focused on investing in corporate divestitures, targeting non-core businesses that no longer align with their parent company's strategic direction.

The team culture at Ten Oaks Group emphasizes leveraging experienced Operating Partners to manage the transition and separation process following an acquisition. Their operational strategies are designed to uncover and optimize the underlying potential of each acquired business. Each company within the Ten Oaks Group portfolio operates independently under its dedicated management team, while receiving management support services from Ten Oaks Management, LLC. This structure fosters autonomy and specialized attention for each business. The firm prides itself on its ability to customize transaction approaches to best align with the 'wish list' of the seller, ensuring a tailored and effective partnership. This commitment to a collaborative and adaptive process underscores their dedication to achieving successful outcomes for all stakeholders involved in complex carve-out transactions. The firm actively fosters talent, as seen in their Sourcing & Qualification Program for MBA students, offering hands-on experience and mentorship in the private equity carve-out space.
