"We were very pleased to complete the transaction and provide a liquidity solution for the limited partners of the Dolphin Equity funds", said Second Alpha Managing Partner Richard Brekka. "We plan to work closely with management teams at our portfolio companies to drive positive results and maximize the value of their businesses."

"Our investment model at Second Alpha allows us, when appropriate, to be very active in advising portfolio companies" said Managing Partner Jim Sanger. "That differentiates the Second Alpha team from those of some other investment firms focused on private equity secondaries who pursue more passive management strategies."

Second Alpha representatives will serve on the boards of several companies in the new portfolio.
