Kirkland Advises Gryphon Investors on Close of Vessco Water Continuation Fund
Kirkland & Ellis advised Gryphon Investors on the closing of a single-asset continuation vehicle for Vessco Water, a market-leading distribution and services platform in the water and wastewater treatment market. Apollo S3, CVC Secondary Partners, and Lexington Partners L.P. acted as lead investors in the transaction, with Vessco Water's management remaining large shareholders in the company. The transaction delivered liquidity to Gryphon VI limited partners and co-investors and also provided new committed capital for growth and investment in Vessco Water.
The Kirkland team was led by investment funds partners Damian Jacobs and Karin Orsic and corporate partner Noah Boyens.
