The Deal
- Bought By
- Karl Laughton
- Year
- Not published by any primary source
- The backer's card prints the chief executive, the company and its city and no year at all, its page carrying no year on any card. The index host's card prints its own 2025 investment and names nobody, and a third backer's roster files his own vehicle as still searching. Nothing read states when the purchase closed. A paid biography release of May 21, 2026 says he has led the company since 2025 following an entrepreneurial acquisition, on a host that publishes what it is paid to print, so it dates nothing here. His vehicle filed a new offering of $19.45 million on June 16, 2025 with nothing sold and its first sale yet to occur, which bounds the purchase to after that date without dating it.
- Vehicle

What Happened Next
Still held: the backer's card names the chief executive beside the company and its city, and the index host's card prints its own 2025 investment and names nobody, and a third backer's roster files his own vehicle as still searching.

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.
- Cerralvo's own account cerralvo.com
- Search Fund Partners' own account searchfunds.net
- Maven Equity Partners' own account mavenequitypartners.com
- Novidam's own account novidam.com
- Legate Partners' own account, which identifies each company by its website link and its logo rather than by name, and names nobody legatelp.com
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's card carries the company against its own 2025 investment and names nobody; the pairing is a second backer's card naming him chief executive beside the company. A third backer's roster files a vehicle under his name as still searching. Nothing says he bought it.
