Fleetcor closes new $100 million Series E equity financing

ATLANTA, U.S.A. April 6, 2009 - FleetCor, The Global Fleet Card Company, announced today that it closed $100 million of Series E equity financing in conjunction with its recent acquisition of Corporate Lodging Consultants (CLC).

The financing was led by Summit Partners, FleetCor’s majority shareholder since 2002, and included many of the company’s existing investors such as Advantage Capital and Advent International. As part of the equity raise, FleetCor also welcomed three new investors to the company: Nautic Partners, HarbourVest Partners, and Performance Equity Management.

“It’s a great feeling to have our existing private equity investors ‘double down’ on our business, and terrific to add three new investors who can potentially finance future transactions,” said Ron Clarke, FleetCor's Chairman and CEO.

“We are pleased to invest in Ron and his management team once again, and we believe in backing our winners,” said Bruce Evans, Managing Director of Summit Partners. “The CLC investment thesis is compelling on its own, and goes a long way to diversify and reposition FleetCor beyond fuel cards.”
