New Horizon Capital (Japan)

New Horizon Capital (NHC) is a Tokyo-based fund management firm that invests in private equity and private debt strategy, spun off from Phoenix Capital, a Tokyo-based private equity firm specializing in turnaround investments. The firm focuses on mid-cap buyout investments particularly related to management succession and carve-out deals arising from business restructuring while also investing in growth and turnaround opportunities. It invests predominantly in Japan, targeting undervalued small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with strong fundamentals and high growth potential, distressed firms suffering from financing issues or a temporary revenue decline, as well as mature mid- to large-sized firms looking to restructure or develop new organizational models. NHC typically acquires controlling stakes in investee companies but also considers customized management control policies.
