We target assets with traditional infrastructure traits, such as high barriers to entry, strong pricing power, and durable cash flows across the major infrastructure sectors. We also apply detailed portfolio construction strategies focused on specific sectors, risk profiles and geographic exposures consistent with the risk/return objectives of our managed funds and client accounts.

Deal Spotlights
Cold-Link Storage
Who they are
A U.S.-based, family-run cold storage platform that owns and operates 78 million total cubic feet of ambient, refrigerated and frozen storage and 160k current pallet positions, serving over 280 customers nationwide.
Why it matters
Cold-Link Storage provides access to a differentiated company within a familiar industry, offering meaningful downside protection and substantial value creation potential through operational initiatives and strategic M&A. The company is well-positioned to benefit from favorable macroeconomic and industry tailwinds that drive contract rate growth over time.
The HL advantage
Our strong relationship with the sponsor gave our investment team advantaged access to this large-scale opportunity. Leveraging our significant position in the company, we negotiated highly favorable governance terms and attractive economics directly with the sponsor.
The bottom line
The investment offers exposure to a modern operator in an industry characterized by aging infrastructure. All Cold-Link facilities have been upgraded within five years or built since 2022, serving sticky, credit-rated food and beverage clients.
Flexential
Who they are
An interconnected data center platform operating 42 data centers across 19 U.S. markets to offer mission-critical solutions, including colocation and interconnection, to a range of end-users.
Why it matters
Data centers are benefitting from long-term secular tailwinds that are being amplified by decentralization of demand and generative AI, with Flexential’s addressable market growing at a rate significantly faster than the total U.S. data center market.
The HL advantage
Our relationship with the sponsor provided early access to the opportunity, while our ability to lead the transaction and provide capital at scale enabled favorable negotiations with a highly aligned partner.
The bottom line
This opportunity offers downside protection through long-term contracts with a diversified customer base, while the revenue mix continues to shift favorably toward wholesale and hyperscale segments. With a compelling entry valuation, strong operating leverage from a predominantly fixed cost structure and meaningful in-flight expansion, the business is well-positioned for attractive margin expansion and sustained growth.
Project Amphora
Project description
A U.S. renewable energy-focused independent power producer (“IPP”) developing, owning and operating “on-site” energy solutions, including solar, fuel cell and combined heat and power (“CHP”).
Why it matters
The company is well positioned to benefit from strong secular tailwinds resulting from a fragmented and aging U.S. grid, driving C&I customer demand for energy reliability, resiliency, on-site power flexibility and decarbonization.
The bottom line
The operating portfolio at entry comprises ~43 MW across 12 states, in addition to a robust pipeline for continued growth. Approximately 91% of revenue is generated by long-term contracts with investment-grade off-takers, with a weighted average PPA term of 16 years. Furthermore, the management team averages 20 years of industry experience and previously developed, owned, operated and sold a similar distributed energy business.
The HL advantage
We co-led this investment, allowing for favorable governance rights and an observer seat on the company’s board.
