All three transactions have generated strong income toward our core commitment of delivering stable and sustainable pensions for OMERS members. While we announce this additional successful exit today, we of course continue to focus on advancing our strategy of investing in companies with solid business fundamentals, strong management teams, and opportunities to grow both organically and through acquisitions,” said Michael Graham, Head of North America for OMERS Private Equity.
