Plaisance Capital
Overview
Plaisance Capital is a private equity firm based in Denver, Colorado, specializing in investments within the healthcare and life sciences sectors. The firm focuses on identifying and supporting companies that are developing innovative medical treatments, aiming to enhance patient care and advance medical science. Employing a Contrarian Value investment philosophy, Plaisance Capital seeks to determine the long-term intrinsic value of businesses and compares this estimation with their market prices. The firm utilizes a Long/Short portfolio model to exploit equity mispricings, typically buying shares in undervalued companies undergoing specific change catalysts and short-selling overvalued equities with higher embedded expectations than competitive forces will permit. Founded in November 2008 by Daniel R. Kozlowski, CFA, Plaisance Capital began managing a short-biased long/short strategy in February 2009. Prior to establishing Plaisance Capital, Mr. Kozlowski co-founded and co-managed the Janus Long/Short Fund, which grew from $5 million in assets under management in August 2006 to $1.3 billion by March 2008. After a tenure at Janus Capital, he re-established Plaisance Capital in September 2017. Plaisance Capital's investment approach is characterized by a focus on long-term value, a commitment to supporting innovative medical treatments, and a disciplined investment process aimed at identifying and capitalizing on market inefficiencies within the healthcare and life sciences industries.
