Generates $11.0 million Realized Gain from Exit of Equity Investment in J&J Services, Inc.
HOUSTON, Nov. 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: MAIN) ("Main Street") is pleased to announce that it recently fully exited its debt and equity investments in J&J Services, Inc. ("J&J" or the "Company) upon the sale of the Company to a strategic acquiror. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, J&J is a second-generation family owned and operated business providing roll-off dumpster and portable toilet rental services to an expansive base of residential, commercial and demolition customers. Main Street realized a gain of $11.0 million on the exit of its equity investment in J&J, with this realized value representing an increase of $5.0 million above Main Street's fair market value for this investment as of June 30th, 2021.
Main Street, along with its co-investors, partnered with J&J's founders and senior management team to facilitate the recapitalization of the Company in October 2019. Through a combination of first-lien, senior secured term debt and a direct equity investment, Main Street invested $24.8 million in the Company. Over the course of Main Street's investment, J&J invested heavily in its fleet assets to further strengthen the Company's best-in-class service reputation and leading market share position within the rapidly growing Nashville and Middle Tennessee markets. On a cumulative basis since Main Street's investment in J&J in October 2019, Main Street realized an annual internal rate of return of 59.2% and a 2.5x times money invested return on its equity investment and an annual internal rate of return of 31.6% and a 1.6x times money invested return including both Main Street's debt and equity investments.
