The Deal

Bought By
Robert Southern
Year
Not published by any primary source
The index host prints its own 2018 investment year, which is the backer's date; the second backer's card carries no year and no person; the company's own site was not read for a history.

Backed by Pacific Lake Partners and Trilogy Search Partners
Kind
Software

A Portland, Oregon software company whose product automates accounts payable and plugs into the enterprise resource planning systems its customers already run.

What Happened Next

The index host names him chief executive beside its 2018 investment and still carries the company as active; the second backer marks its own investment realized. Neither names a buyer.

The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.

Method & Source

This record is double-sourced: it joined when the purchase and, where the company has traded on, the exit could both be read in primary accounts rather than inferred.

These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. The index host names him as chief executive beside its 2018 investment and still calls the company active; the second backer lists the company and marks its own investment realized. Nothing says he bought it.
