Tom West is ASAP’s New CEO

January 3rd, 2008

The Automotive Specialty Accessories and Parts (ASAP) has its new CEO, Tom West. The new 40 year old officer came from a computer industry which is DELL. In this previous company, he provided his service for the past nine years. Though West’s new company is in line with aftermarket auto parts and products, he already observes the resemblance involving consumers of car parts and computers.

Since he was engaged more on computers, he believes that the auto industry is perfect for the web. He said about looking on the way how people purchase aftermarket auto parts. According to him, “You need a unique fit for your specific vehicle. The average retailer carries 50,000 SKUs in store. The average vehicle has 20,000 unique parts by year, make, and model, and that gets complex.”

Just like other officials of automotive companies, West attended the recent Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association (SEMA) Show held in Las Vegas. He commented regarding auto enthusiast’s market saying, “This is a great industry with passionate customers,” West says about the auto enthusiast’s market. “I saw a lot of people fired up about their cars. People are passionate about computers, but not like they are about their cars.”

ASAP is one of the largest auto parts and accessories retailer and the parent company of Aftermarket Performance Parts catalogers Whitney & Co. and Stylin’ Concepts. The new CEO believes ASAP for expansion reaching to a $1 billion company. “We can scale this thing pretty quickly. Both (Dell and ASAP) got their start with catalogs and have a deep set of experience managing catalog functions and, more recently, online functions. Those skill sets are absolutely critical. These are relationships you can track,” West said.

November 28th, 2007

An investment was made by American Capital Strategies Ltd. to the One Stop Buyout(TM) of Dynojet Research Inc. which takes in the form of a senior subordinated debt and favored convertible, common equity as well as senior term loan. In addition, American Capital also provides a revolving credit facility. Dynojet is a developer of Aftermarket Performance Parts, products and diagnostic tools for automotive and motorcycle industries. Previous to the investment of American Capital, it was a portfolio company of Graham Partners.

As said by Darin Winn, the Regional Managing Director of American Capital, “For the past 35 years, Dynojet has been a pioneer in product development in the motorcycle and automotive industries and we are excited to add this innovative company to our portfolio. Our one-stop financing capabilities and intensive and focused internal due diligence resources allowed us to quickly complete this investment.”

The investment of American Capital will reach to an estimated $11 billion in the last 12 months, by way of its funds under its administration and direct investment. The year-to-date investment is approximately $9.9 billion with an approximate $11 billion for quarter to date. The company has invested about $8.1 billion in the last 12 months excluding the funds under management which reached to approximately $7.3 billion year to date and around $1.3 billion quarter to date.

“Dynojet is the clear leader in its industry, commanding number one market share in practically every category in which it competes.

Furthermore, under the leadership of President and CEO Robert Vlcek, the Company has expanded its target markets, augmented its product portfolio and achieved robust financial performance,” said Frank Do, American Capital’s Managing Director.

According to Brian Martin, the Vice President of American Capital, “Dynojet competes in an attractive industry with strong growth trends in the motorcycle parts and accessories market driven by favorable demographics, an increasing installed base of motorcycles and the conversion from carburetion to electronic fuel-injection fuel management. Dynojet’s strong market position and ability to quickly develop new products bode well for the Company and will enable it to meet anticipated market demands.”
