1876 PARTNERS, LP

Overview

1876 Partners, LP is a Tomball, Texas–based private equity manager focused on lower middle market software, technology-enabled services, and data businesses. The firm was founded in 2023 by Robert Burnett, Matt Zachary, and Jake Stewart and registered with the SEC in 2024. 1876 Partners targets profitable, vertically focused companies where recurring revenue and mission-critical market positioning create defensible economics and predictable cash flow. Investment decisions center on companies with up to $10M in EBITDA, often family- or founder-owned, operating in fragmented verticals with low customer concentration. The team prioritizes management depth and domain expertise, seeking businesses with strong recurring revenue models and clear acquisition opportunities that can be executed from day one. The firm also identifies itself as an active ESG investor, integrating environmental, social and governance considerations into underwriting and portfolio oversight. As a private equity sponsor and managing member of pooled vehicles, 1876 Partners runs a fee structure that combines a percentage-of-AUM management fee with performance-based carry. Its client base is institutional and the firm’s advisory activity is focused on portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles.
