LBC Credit Partners (“LBC”), one of the leading providers of financing solutions to middle market companies, provided a senior secured credit facility to support O2 Investment Partners, LP’s (“O2”) partnership with Centex Construction (“Centex” or the “Company”) and its founders Mark Whitehead, Mark Herbert, and David Borne. The financing will support the Company’s rapid growth.

O2 is a Midwestern-based private equity firm that seeks to invest in lower middle market B2B services, technology, and select industrial companies. The firm invests in businesses with earnings growth potential and a clear path to the creation of shareholder value. O2 invests with a view toward partnering with management to build and grow the business and take it to its next stage of development. This requires not only a clear vision and strategic plan to create shareholder value, but a close partnership and alignment of interest with management.
