Broadtree Partners Announces $240 Million Multi-Asset Continuation Fund

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Broadtree Partners, LLC ("Broadtree"), a premier lower middle-market private equity firm specializing in providing first institutional capital and operating resources to North America-based services businesses through control investments, announced the successful closing of a multi-asset continuation fund (the "Continuation Fund") with approximately $240 million of total commitments. The Continuation Fund closed in March 2026 and was formed to provide shareholder liquidity and committed follow-on equity for growth investments in four existing, high-performing Broadtree portfolio companies, including:

• Semify, a provider of proprietary technology and AI-optimization solutions that enable digital marketing at scale.
• Sayres Defense, a mission-critical government services platform providing solutions for high-priority defense and homeland security initiatives.
• Triage Partners, a technology-enabled services and software provider for the telecom sector, focused on fiber installation, repair, and construction services.
• Seanair, a manufacturer of high-quality precision parts for aerospace & defense systems.

The portfolio reflects Broadtree's deep expertise in Government Contracting, Tech-Enabled Services, and Marketing Technology & Services. These companies have scaled significantly since Broadtree's initial acquisition, and Broadtree believes the investments completed to date to enhance the companies' capabilities, leadership teams, customer partnerships and geographic footprints position them well to continue to generate strong growth.

The transaction provides the portfolio companies with additional capital to execute on organic growth initiatives and accretive M&A. The Continuation Fund, managed by Broadtree, was led by Adams Street Partners, and included additional commitments from both new and existing Broadtree investors.

"We are very excited to partner with Adams Street on this important transaction. We share a similar vision and high conviction for these businesses, and we are excited to have like-minded partners for the next chapter of this journey. Additionally, we are grateful for the support of our existing investors and excited to have many of them reinvesting in these businesses alongside us. We look forward to working hand-in-hand with our management teams to build off a highly successful first chapter, and continue scaling these companies," said Brad Batten, Managing Partner of Broadtree.

"We target secondary investment opportunities with high-growth businesses alongside experienced, well-aligned managers. We are excited to partner with Broadtree on this transaction, which aligns well with our strategy and provides the portfolio companies with additional capital and time to support their next phase of growth," said Joe Goldrick, Partner at Adams Street.

William Blair served as exclusive financial advisor to Broadtree and placement agent for the Continuation Fund. Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Holland & Knight LLP served as legal advisors to Broadtree Partners and the portfolio companies. Jones Day served as legal advisor to Adams Street Partners.
