We believe that a positive work ethic, commitment to integrity and consistent discipline paves the way to success.

Excellent Capital is a single family office founded by Simon Zhang in 2014 based in Newport Beach, California. The firm is focused on significant wealth generation for our first-generation Principal with holdings in commodities trading, real estate and asset management.

Excellent Capital's investments are allocated into three separate strategies: private equities, public equities and real estate. Investment objectives are focused on long-term compounding returns over a 20+ year time horizon and working with exceptional investment and operational partners to generate truly excellent investment performance.

Excellent Capital Private Equity

Private Equities

The private equities team primarily invests in majority stake, control positions in cash flow positive, profitable businesses with a track record of revenue growth and a target EBITDA range between $1-15M.

We invest in minority, majority and co-GP/JV situations in cash flow positive, profitable businesses with a track record of revenue growth and target EBITDA range between $2-15M. Our evergreen permanent capital structure allows for long-term and patient holding periods beyond typical private equity timelines while providing sellers with expedited deal closures and a debt-light acquisition model.

An opportunistic allocation is given to investment structures with substantial complexity including carve-outs, divestitures, restructurings and distressed situations with a particular willingness to engage in special situations requiring rapid deal execution with conservative leverage usage.

Public Equities

The public equities team has an extremely long-duration, flexible mandate that seeks to compound capital by significant orders of magnitude primarily focused on an in-house long short small-mid cap strategy.

The process is driven by deep fundamental research into finding a concentrated portfolio of companies with strong, long-term growth prospects while employing a value-investing orientation around strict price discipline.

The public equities team targets companies that exhibit a few major catalysts that will drive the bulk of the returns while simultaneously requiring valuation discipline in entry and exit points. A small opportunistic allocation is also given to high risk-reward bets or deep value plays that the team finds particularly compelling.

Real Estate

The core focus of the family office’s real estate team is identifying dislocations caused by cyclical fluctuations. The family leverages its evergreen structure and combined experience of 70+ years to actively invest in distressed transactions with significant value-add potential, including: value-add acquisitions, distressed repositioning, core acquisitions, bridge lending, and development.

Acquisitions are primarily focused in the United States, with core holdings in multifamily, industrial, and residential.

The process is also driven by the team’s reputation of being able to move very quickly and winning preferential access with a select group of sellers. A small allocation is given to speculative developments and land development projects where we find a temporary price dislocation based on location, NOI, property quality, CAPEX needs and occupancy.
