Building Value
Through Strategic
GovCon Acquisitions
Acquiring established, cash-flow-positive government contracting companies — backed by institutional capital and 200+ years of combined expertise.
The GovCon Acquisition Specialists
Rock Valley Capital is focused on acquiring established, cash-flow-positive government contracting companies in the United States. Our approach uses the target company's financial strength to structure low-risk, asset-backed transactions supported by senior debt, seller notes, and institutional equity.
We acquire either a portion or 100% of the equity interests, free of liens or debt, at market EBITDA multiples. Our buy-and-build rollup strategy consolidates the GovCon market to build a scalable platform with diversified agency exposure and a strong contract backlog.
Our Business Model
A disciplined, repeatable process for acquiring, integrating, and growing GovCon companies into a diversified federal contracting platform.
Acquisition Criteria
- Established Federal Contractor — proven track record as a federal government prime or subcontractor.
- Revenue $2M – $100M — annual federal revenue within range, with room for scalable growth.
- EBITDA $1M – $20M — consistent, verifiable earnings with minimum 10% adjusted EBITDA margin.
- 3–5 Year Backlog & Pipeline — predictable contract backlog with funded and unfunded opportunities.
- Owner Financing 20–30% — seller participation via earn-out, note, or option structure.
- Management Retention — existing leadership commits to remain for at least one year post-close.
- DoD or Civilian Agencies — coverage across both defense and civilian agency portfolios considered.
We place particular emphasis on companies with deep domain expertise in high-growth federal technology sectors:
Value Proposition
We acquire vulnerable government contractors and re-stabilize their performance, assets, and backlog — adding securitized, government-backed revenue streams to our blended portfolio.
Our Team
More than 200 years of combined experience across finance, M&A, legal, government contracting, and cybersecurity — backed by institutional capital and deep federal relationships.
Business Risks We Address
We acquire GovCon companies facing non-capital business risks — stabilizing performance and unlocking growth that ownership alone cannot achieve.
