About Alaris

Alaris is a Canadian company that provides alternative financing to a diversified range of profitable, well-managed private businesses in North America. We use an innovative financing structure that allows us to provide capital to companies (our "Private Company Partners") in a manner that maximizes valuations, is tax effective and allows existing owners of the private companies to retain control of their businesses. Our primary objective is to generate predictable cash flows from our Private Company Partners to allow us to provide an attractive yet stable yield as well as liquidity to our investors.

Leave the Owner's to Run the Business

With Alaris, our Private Company Partners have access to ongoing capital, remain private and maintain 100% control over their common voting equity. We believe business decisions are best made by the people who have built these successful companies. Our structure allows us to monitor the private companies that we provide financing to without needing to be involved in their day-to-day business decisions.

Revenue That is Highly Predictable

At the same time, we derive diversified priority-cash returns from businesses that have displayed an ability to be highly profitable in varying economic environments. By supporting management teams that remain fully motivated, by their ownership position, to run their business profitably, our investors are able to receive stable monthly dividends based on distributions received by us from the private companies that are set 12 months in advance.

The result for our investors is a revenue stream that generally has low volatility and high predictability due to the "top line" royalty nature of our distributions from our Private Company Partners. Visibility is also created because of the 12 month pre-set payments we receive. Our structure gives us the ability to pay out the vast majority of our revenues in the form of tax effective eligible dividends, thus providing our investors with an attractive yet stable yield.
