G.L. Ohrstrom & Co., Inc. is an investment firm dating back to 1926 when it was founded by George L. Ohrstrom ("GLO&Co."). Since 1946, GLO & Co. has focused exclusively on private equity investments, purchasing companies that manufacture a wide range of engineered products for, or provide highly value-added services to, the industrial, energy, aerospace, medical, and consumer markets.

Our long-term focus is to invest in management and businesses to which we, as a capital provider, can offer developmental assistance. GLO & Co. and its professionals take pride in their ability to assist management in their plans for growth and business development, which in turn creates value for our investors.

GLO & Co. is not only committed to the growth of the businesses under our control, but also to the companies themselves. We seek to ensure that the core values of the acquired businesses remain intact - their employees, traditions, operating philosophies and culture. GLO & Co. views the preservation of these values as paramount to its strategy.

GLO & Co. has typically invested in family or management-owned companies whose owners seek liquidity. With GLO & Co., business owners and management teams benefit from our long-term approach to building businesses, our network of companies and contacts, and our commitment to their company as a long-term financial partner.

GLO & Co.'s unique approach to long-term private equity investing has been highly successful since the firm's inception. Three prominent examples of this success include Roper Industries, Inc. (NYSE: ROP), Dover Corporation (NYSE: DOV) and Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE: CSL).
