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.

- Pacific Lake Partners' own account pacificlake.com
- Maven Equity Partners' own account mavenequitypartners.com
- Novidam's own account novidam.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 backer's card lists Tim Heath and Michael Kahn as chief executives against an investment year of 2024 and a status of Exited, with no prose. The acquirer's release quotes Kahn as president of Ryzer and says Heath becomes chief financial officer of the combined company, which evidences the exit and not the purchase. Neither page says either man bought it.
