“Steam Plant, Compression Generation Services and Westlake are three solid royalty investments materially diversifying and growing the Grenville portfolio,” says Grenville Chief Executive Officer William (Bill) R. Tharp. “Westlake and Compression Generation Services are both closely held family businesses where Grenville provides an important source of capital, enabling the families to retain control of their business while focusing on future growth. Steam Plant is a great example of the patience and discipline Grenville shows in working with a capable and focused management team over what has been a 2 year re-structuring process. These investments are a material strengthening of our royalty holdings.

In Q2 and Q3, Grenville focused on generating five contract buyouts, returning $9.2 million in capital with a further $5.4 million in realized gains. In Q4, we have deployed $13.1 million in four high quality investments, demonstrating our ability to readily redeploy returned capital in short order. With these investments, Grenville has since its inception deployed $56.9 million into 31 companies through 55 investments. In addition, we have seen a 42% increase in our deal velocity in 2015 relative to 2014.”
