Providing Public Market Access for Leading Companies

Mentor Capital, Inc. (MNTR) is a public energy company based in Plano, Texas.  Mentor targets the classic energy sectors of oil and gas, coal, uranium, and their related operations, with already established cash flows, especially through royalty payments. Mentor is open to using a flexible structure and mix of its cash, retained royalty payments, common stock, debt, or other securities and precious metals to assist founders, owners, or divesting companies to accomplish their financial objectives.  Mentor may take a significant position in any new member of our energy family, but prefers to leave operating control in the hands of existing management to continue to lead and grow their businesses, with the additional funding, acquisition currency, and benefits of working within a public environment.  Mentor Capital, Inc. is a long-declared operating company, although intermittently, excess cash may be invested in other energy securities or commodities. The company plans to return a percentage of its potential gains from the classic energy sector to shareholders via dividends or stock repurchases.

Mentor invests in its larger pre-IPO-related acquisitions and fundings. Mentor takes a significant position in the various members of our family of participating companies but leaves operating control in the hands of founders and owners. This allows founders to continue to lead and grow their businesses with the funding, acquisition currency, and benefits of working within the public environment. Investors also may find liquidity if they choose to exchange all or part of their ownership for Mentor shares.
