Notes

  • Independence Pet Holdings (IPH) announced it acquired a majority interest in Spot Pet Insurance (current controlling owner at the brand level).
  • A Delaware Department of Insurance organizational exam report for an IPH insurance entity states JAB Holding Company is the ultimate controlling entity of the group structure that includes Independence Pet Holdings.
  • JAB publicly describes itself as a partner-led investment firm with generational capital, and in correspondence states it is unlike a traditional private equity firm—so it does not clearly meet the user’s definition of a PE sponsor/fund.
