BERTRAM CAPITAL COMPLETES INVESTMENT IN PERCOPO COATINGS

Foster City, CA - October 6, 2026 - Bertram Capital ("Bertram") announced today its investment in Percopo Coatings Company, LLC ("PCC" or the "Company"), a leading provider of coatings and restoration services for commercial, industrial, and institutional structures across the Southeastern United States. PCC represents the fifth platform investment in Bertram's Ignite fund. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

PCC was founded in 2003 by Mike and Victoria Percopo and is headquartered in Longwood, FL. The Company has built a reputation among general contractors, developers, and facility owners for quality and speed to self-perform across multiple trades, eliminating the need for clients to manage multiple contractors.

"We are proud to partner with Bertram to accelerate our next phase of growth and continue building on more than two decades of expertise, craftsmanship, and client relationships," said Mike Percopo, Founder and CEO of PCC. "The team at Bertram demonstrated a clear understanding of our business, our people, and the standards we hold ourselves to. With the added digital capabilities of Bertram Labs, we believe we can further strengthen our operations and better serve our clients across the South."

PCC delivers painting, coatings and restoration solutions for commercial, institutional, hospitality, aviation, education, and government customers, with recognized project work spanning airports, resorts, theme parks, schools, and federal buildings.

"As backers of several scaled platforms across the trades, we appreciate the deep industry knowledge, relationships, entrepreneurial spirit, and grit required to operate a successful business in these categories," said Zack Bassi, Vice President at Bertram Capital. "Mike and Victoria have worked tirelessly to establish PCC as a household name in painting and specialty coatings with discerning GCs, developers and facility managers. We look forward to supporting PCC's next phase of growth with the assistance of Bertram Labs, our in-house technology team."

Bertram would like to recognize the teams at Cook M&A, led by Arnis Kins, and Ashurst Perkins Coie, led by Blake Schell, for their efforts in making this partnership possible.

PCC is actively pursuing acquisition and partnership opportunities that expand the Company's geographic footprint and bring additional high-quality operators into the platform. Interested business owners may contact our partnerships team directly at [email protected].
