Peak Rock Capital Divests SAM to New Mountain Capital

Austin-based geospatial services firm SAM has been acquired by New Mountain Capital, marking the end of a five-year growth cycle under Peak Rock Capital. The transaction transitions the provider of critical infrastructure data to new ownership following a period of aggressive expansion and revenue doubling.

Since its initial acquisition by Peak Rock in 2021, SAM has scaled its operations significantly by completing 19 strategic acquisitions and adding 25 new offices across North America. The company, which specializes in geospatial intelligence for utility and infrastructure clients, now serves 20 of the 25 largest utility providers in the United States.

Peak Rock executives pointed to the firm's pivot toward artificial intelligence and grid modernization as key drivers for this successful exit. By integrating advanced scientific data capture with a proprietary Managed Geospatial Services framework, SAM positioned itself as a primary partner for large-scale energy operators. Guggenheim Securities, Houlihan Lokey, and Kirkland & Ellis advised on the deal, which concludes a tenure characterized by rapid organic growth and the professionalization of SAM’s technical service offerings.
