Building a list of PE-backed businesses on Mergr is a straightforward search and can easily be narrowed by geography, sector, company size and more.
To get your search started, here's how you build the initial list of companies.
Step 1
Navigate to the Company Search page by selecting 'Company Search' on the Dashboard page or 'Companies' from within the 'Menu' tray.
Step 2
Once on the Company Search page - expand the Search Menu at the top of the page by selecting 'More Options'.
Step 3
With the Company Search menu fully expanded, locate the 'Ownership Status' section in the left column. All companies in the Mergr database are categorized as Public, Private, Acquired, or PE Backed.
To filter for PE Backed companies, select the 'PE Backed (Current)' checkbox.
Step 4
Select Search.
Your search will filter for companies currently owned by PE Firms. Companies owned by PE firms are identified with the PE Backed label and also show who the current PE owner is and when the company was acquired.
