What to know about Hyperion Capital
Hyperion Capital has built its franchise in FinTech, Lower Mid-Market, where founders running a sale process often turn to firms with deep sector pattern recognition. The senior bench, anchored by Sam Zaharis, sets the tone for how engagements run from the first call through whatever outcome the process produces. Founders evaluating Hyperion Capital typically compare it against other industry specialist houses with similar sector emphasis.
Deal sweet spot at Hyperion Capital sits in the $10M-$100M band. That target range shapes everything: which buyers get the call, how the process is paced, and how the firm allocates senior banker attention. Founders working with Hyperion Capital should expect a process tuned to that band; founders far below or above it sometimes find a better fit elsewhere.
Geography matters more than founders expect. Hyperion Capital operates out of New York, NY, and its strongest buyer-side relationships tend to cluster around that orbit. For sellers running a global process, that can be either an advantage (concentrated relationships) or a constraint (thinner reach in other regions). Founders should ask directly: which buyers have you placed with in the last 24 months, and where are they.
