Three Kings Capital

Overview

Three Kings Capital is a private equity firm dedicated to safeguarding national, corporate, and personal assets from cyber threats. As a family-office backed platform, they operate without the constraints of a traditional fundraising cycle, allowing for opportunistic exits. Their investment focus is on information security companies with at least $5 million in revenue from a diversified customer base, investing between $1 million and $10 million in both product and service companies serving government or commercial clients. Their primary goal is to protect critical infrastructure, national assets, corporate assets, personal assets, and personally identifiable information from cyber threats. They are not passive investors; they take board seats or advisor roles to actively help grow the companies in which they invest. Their executives and advisors have intelligence, armed forces, law enforcement, consulting, investing, and management pedigrees second to none. Their investment criteria include a focus on information security products or services, with a regional focus primarily on U.S.-based businesses, as well as Canada, Western Europe, and Singapore. They prefer companies that are cash flow positive or approaching break-even, with a minimum of $5 million in revenue and a well-diversified customer base in the public or private sector. Their team includes Bill Ryckman, who has a computer science background and over 25 years of experience analyzing, advising, and investing in companies in the Aerospace and Defense industry. In 2013, he decided to dedicate himself exclusively to serving the cybersecurity mission. Their board of advisors includes Jonathan Ryckman, a senior management executive with experience in multiple private equity-backed companies; Joe, a Chief Risk Officer with experience at Booz Allen and the NSA; Desmoine, a CEO; Justine Bone, a CEO and former Chief Information Security Officer; Dan Wachtler, a CEO; Alison, a CEO; Jim, a former NSA employee; Dan Guido, a CEO; Aric Perminter, a CEO and former Army officer; Lt.
