"RDCP is shifting from a leverage-heavy acquisition model to a disciplined, permanent-capital framework (RDCP 2.0) that prioritizes high-quality recurring revenue businesses. In 2025, the firm successfully expanded its portfolio with key healthcare and pet food acquisitions, growing its enterprise value to $650 million."
In its 2025 Annual Letter, RD Capital Partners (RDCP) marks its ten-year anniversary since its founding in 2015, reflecting on a decade of compounding that achieved a 73.9% annualized return and grew enterprise value (EV) to $650 million. Founder and CEO Sameer Rizvi outlines a major strategic evolution from 'RDCP 1.0' to 'RDCP 2.0'—transitioning away from the leverage-reliant, opportunistic acquisition model of its 'cigar-butt' era toward a 'See's Candies' era focused on high-quality, asset-backed, and operationally resilient companies. During 2025, RDCP made three key acquisitions: Monarch Healthcare, a portfolio of 12 nursing homes in the UK; DJL Petfoods, a leading pet food ingredients distributor; and a minority stake in STAR Capital Care, marking the firm's initial international expansion into the US healthcare market. Looking forward to 2026 and 2027, the firm intends to focus on building group liquidity, strengthening corporate governance through the newly established RDCP Catalyst Team, and accelerating debt repayment. The firm's long-term goal is to self-fund future investments entirely from its own permanent capital base with minimal reliance on external leverage.
