208 Capital Information

208 Capital, LLC is an investment firm with a short-duration, long-biased, unlevered, high-α event-driven strategy that predicts when publicly traded companies will be acquired. Public SEC filings show an average (x̄) of ≈139 take-private deals per year among US companies with $7M–$7B market caps, at an average acquisition premium of 40.4%. Our strategy represents a fundamental evolution beyond traditional event-driven merger arbitrage approaches – shifting the point of alpha capture from the post-announcement spread compression to the pre-announcement valuation inflection.
