BALTIMORE, MD, July 14, 2026 - ABS Capital Partners ("ABS"), a growth equity investment firm that partners with founder-led businesses at critical inflection points in their growth journey, today announced the final close of ABS Capital Partners IX. ABS Fund IX will continue the firm's 36-year track record of transforming companies into scalable industry leaders. Since its founding in 1990, ABS has made approximately 140 investments in its focus areas and has realized more than 65 exits and 25 IPOs.
Fund IX is off to a promising start, with the firm having already completed three investments:
Cariloop (www.cariloop.com), a caregiver support platform helping employers and health plans improve workforce well-being and outcomes;
CERTIFY Health (www.certifyhealth.com), a SaaS healthcare workflow and payments platform connecting patient engagement, identity, eligibility, and payment experiences; and
Greenspace Health (www.greenspacehealth.com), a SaaS platform that enables measurement-based care and helps behavioral health providers improve patient outcomes.
"Closing Fund IX and completing three investments is an exciting milestone for our firm," said Cal Wheaton, Partner at ABS Capital. "We believe some of the most compelling investment opportunities arise when successful businesses reach an inflection point where additional capital, leadership, and operational support can accelerate growth. Fund IX allows us to continue partnering with management teams as they build stronger, more scalable companies."
"We continue to see a strong pipeline of opportunities across our areas of focus as entrepreneurs look for minority growth capital to take their businesses to the next level," said Jennifer Krusius, Partner at ABS Capital. "Cariloop, CERTIFY Health, and Greenspace Health are each helping customers solve important operational challenges, and we remain excited about the opportunities ahead."
Additionally, ABS recently welcomed Collin Llewellyn to its investment team. Collin brings private equity and investment banking experience and will work alongside the firm's partners across all aspects of the investment lifecycle, including sourcing, evaluation, execution, and portfolio company engagement, as the firm continues to deploy Fund IX.
