Our investment team is tenured, cohesive and complementary. Principals of our firm have worked together since the late-1990s. We have patience and disciplined judgment - two key tenets of our long-term investment philosophy.
-
Our investment strategies (Small and Micro Cap Value) are driven by our contrarian investment philosophy of identifying undervalued companies with good long-term operating prospects. We focus on smaller capitalization companies because we believe they provide the greatest opportunity to exploit market inefficiencies. We generate our own investment ideas using fundamental analysis and bottom-up stock selection in our steadfast pursuit to deliver value relative to our benchmarks.
-
We strive to bring superior investment results and a high level of service to the partnerships we have with our clients. We invest in our strategies right alongside our clients.
Our History
Pacific Ridge Capital Partners, LLC (“Pacific Ridge”) is a Registered Investment Adviser serving institutions since June 2010. We are an independent, employee-owned firm with a long-tenured and cohesive investment team bringing deep industry experience to our firm and to benefit our clients.
Pacific Ridge’s investment staff is comprised of former members of the Benson Value Team from Wells Capital Management. Prior to that, several members worked together at Benson Associates, LLC as far back as the late-1990s. Our investment strategies (Small and Micro Cap Value) are the same tested strategies that our investment team successfully managed together in the past. Our motivation for establishing Pacific Ridge was to return to an independent, employee-owned environment.
Our mission is to achieve a high standard of excellence in all that we do. For our clients, we strive to provide superior investment results and client service. For our employees, we maintain a professional culture that is supportive and motivating, fosters and rewards high performance and creates meaningful career opportunities.
