Lone Star Funds (“Lone Star”) is a leading private equity firm that seeks investment opportunities in developed markets that have suffered an economic and/or banking crisis, resulting in a dislocation in asset pricing and value opportunities. Highly disciplined and value-driven, Lone Star focuses on liquidity-constrained but otherwise viable assets, with the goal of repositioning them for long-term success. In this context, Lone Star considers a broad scope of markets, industries, and opportunities, including equity and debt investments in value-oriented assets, real estate and real estate-related assets, control investments in operating companies, and securitized products. Since the establishment of its first fund in 1995, Lone Star has organized seventeen private equity funds (the “Funds”) with aggregate capital commitments totaling over $70 billion. The Funds are structured as closed-end, private-equity limited partnerships, the limited partners of which include corporate and public pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, university endowments, foundations, fund of funds and high net worth individuals. Hudson Advisors L.P. (collectively with its subsidiaries) is a globally integrated asset management company that performs due diligence and analysis, asset management and other support services for Lone Star and to the assets acquired by the Funds. Hudson Advisors L.P. is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and collectively with its global subsidiaries employs over 850 professionals.
