About Us

1847 Holdings LLC, (OTCBB:EFSH) is a publicly traded partnership that is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.  1847 seeks to combine the most attractive attributes of owning private, lower-middle market businesses with the liquidity and transparency of a publicly traded company.  1847 intends to provide shareholders with non-correlated returns while allowing shareholders to liquidate their position in 1847 Holdings LLC at any point during an investment timeline.
1847’s unique structure permits flow-through tax treatment for shareholders.  As a result, 1847 will seek to generate returns for shareholders through consistent, annual distributions of operating subsidiary income and capital appreciation resulting from the timely sale of operating subsidiaries.

Parameters

1847’s mission is to generate superior risk-adjusted returns through the majority ownership of a curated portfolio of lower, middle market companies that are led by strong managers.  Ultimately, 1847 seeks to derive value creation through prudently distributing annual income while growing its operating subsidiaries – versus financial engineering fostered by extreme leverage. As a result, we seek to own companies with founder-operators and management teams at the critical inflection point in their growth cycle. By focusing on acquiring companies with an underlying blueprint for growth, 1847 selects companies that present the greatest opportunities for long-term value creation underpinned by a defensible value proposition and perpetual reason to exist.
