McKenna Capital, a division of McKenna & Associates, LLC, is sector agnostic as we invest and manage our proprietary capital across various asset classes. We identify investment opportunities through a holistic analytical framework that focuses on seven distinct criteria:

1. a clearly articulated vision or thesis;
2. leadership and governance;
3. multiple avenues of growth;
4. competitiveness and economic moat;
5. industry tailwinds;
6. valuation and minimum returns; and
7. direct ownership.

We also work side-by-side with top-tier investment managers, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals to further advance our investment strategies.

Building upon and drawing from McKenna & Associates’ highly successful advisory practice, McKenna Capital takes an active role in supporting the management teams of our portfolio companies to create value. Recent investments include:

• Spintech Holdings: Led $4M Series B round to support the development of Spintech’s Hawthorn Composites division.

• Virtualitics: Made follow on investment in Virtualitics’ $37M Series C round to support the Company’s continued growth and expansion with both DoD and commercial momentum.
