We just held Institutional Investor Day and it was an important moment for Tide Rock. The energy, engagement, and thoughtful dialogue reinforced what we believe at our core: disciplined execution drives real results. We showcased how our playbook is actively deployed across the portfolio, powered by 150+ modules, 100+ videos, and we're continuously improving it. Investors saw firsthand how we buy good businesses, run our playbook, and drive performance. “It’s been great to watch you refine the playbook and see the real impact on the portfolio. There’s real momentum here. It’s so impressive to see how you’ve matured as an organization," a long-time investor said. Watch the highlights below. https://lnkd.in/gSEt2Smk

We're honored to be featured by San Diego Business Journal. Thanks Madison Geering for the coverage. We're very proud to be in San Diego! #unleveredbuyout #growth #sandiego
It is very humbling to be featured in the San Diego Business Journal this week. I was born and raised in San Diego, so it’s incredible to now be recognized as one of the largest private companies in the area. For the 12+ years we’ve been building Tide Rock, we have stayed focused on building a great team, acquiring good founder-run businesses, and realizing consistent growth. Now we have over $1B in acquisition capital, over 3,000 employees, and in my opinion, we are one of the most exciting and stimulating places to work in San Diego. San Diego is a great place to build a successful business, and we have a lot of fun doing it. I’m looking forward to continuing our growth and being a part of this amazing ride with our incredible team! https://lnkd.in/gKxAjJeQ

Appreciate the thoughtful Forbes feature by Jim Vinoski, who’s been highlighting the challenges of traditional PE in manufacturing. We’ve built a model that works differently and we’re glad to see it recognized by the experts. #unleveredbuyout #manufacturing #madeintheusa #b2b
As I've been on a bit of a tear about the many negatives out there in the world of investing in manufacturing, I'm happy to publish today's Forbes article about a company doing things right. It was marvelous chatting with Ryan Peddycord at Tide Rock, and getting some extra perspective from investor and serial entrepreneur Mike Hagan. https://lnkd.in/gbRG8UWw

Ryan Peddycord, our CEO, just had the opportunity to join Brian Sullivan on CNBC’s Power Lunch to spotlight something we believe deeply at Tide Rock: “There are thousands of great, smaller, often family-owned or run companies across America that could use that investment to scale up.” — Brian Sullivan, CNBC We couldn’t agree more! Tide Rock is an unlevered buyout firm and we acquire founder-run businesses to grow their legacies. There are incredible businesses across the country — built by skilled, hard-working founders — and they need the right platform to take what they've built and grow them to the next level. We’re proud to be that platform. Watch the segment here: https://cnb.cx/4mVoaJx #UnleveredBuyout #Buyout #FounderLed #Growth
