April 29, 2019 – Rokstad Holdings Corporation (“Rokstad”), a privately held company that provides power line construction and maintenance services to customers across North America, announced the closing of a term loan of $100 million from Crown Capital Partner Funding, LP (“Crown Partners Fund”). Crown Partners Fund is an investment fund that Crown Capital Partners Inc. (“Crown Capital”), a capital partner to entrepreneurs and growth businesses, manages and holds a 37% interest (TSX: CRWN).
“We are excited to share this news with our industry partners, vendors, clients and staff,” said Rokstad Power’s Chief Executive Officer Aaron Rokstad. “Since the re-acquisition of the business from our former partners, we have experienced a growing pipeline of new projects and opportunities, and this new funding from Crown Capital provides additional financial strength and flexibility to support this growth.”
“Rokstad is a well-established business with a diversified base of large, long-standing utility customers,” said Chris Johnson, Crown Capital President & CEO. “The company has experienced very strong growth over the past several years as spending has increased significantly in its sector, driven by the aging transmission and distribution infrastructure, new technology and regulatory drivers.
