Lower middle market-focused private equity firm American Discovery Capital has held the final close of American Discovery Fund II at $190m in total capital commitments. 

ADC’s latest fund closed at more than three times its predecessor, American Discovery Fund I, which closed in 2019 and invested $60m across six portfolio companies and 17 add-on acquisitions.

ADF II received commitments from existing and new investors including wealth managers, family offices and high net worth individuals, over 17% of which came from ADC’s partners and employees.

According to a press statement, ADF II will continue to target companies in the business services and software sectors. ADF II has already closed three investments and is actively seeking new investment opportunities.
