It is simple. St. Martin exists to provide generational returns while preserving the legacy of its founders and contributors. The company generates shareholder value through dividend growth and legacy enhancement. Growth is achieved through diligent portfolio management and investment strategies across the risk continuum. And our legacy is enhanced through integrity, vision, execution, and resource stewardship.
St. Martin is a multi-business, generational company with Midwest (Iowa) and Bayou (Louisiana) roots. The company acquired thousands of timber acres in 1905—its growth fueled by energy discoveries. In the 2000s, the company began diversifying into alternative investments. Today, St. Martin is committed to creating a sustainable and resilient operating portfolio for generational growth and legacy enhancement.
St. Martin is a unique acquisition platform. We look for companies like us—honest in our dealings, proud of our legacy and impact, and always innovating for the future. We are seeking small-to-middle market companies that enhance our generational portfolio, are passionate about business growth, and value stewardship.
We are straightforward and genuine in our courtship, fair in our negotiation, efficient in our diligence, and expeditious in our closing. We respect company heritage and let leaders lead because we buy-and-build for the long-term. Our capital structure is flexible. We are not looking for a quick flip and do not rationalize people or operations. Instead, we encourage owner and management equity rolls as well as align processes and resources to achieve growth and emergent opportunities.
