About
Tieton Capital Management is an SEC-registered investment adviser that manages a Small Cap Value equity strategy for a mix of clients including foundations, endowments, trusts, pension funds, wealthy families and individual investors. The firm manages discretionary accounts from a model portfolio and, for select clients, supplements equity holdings with no-load mutual funds and ETFs and also manages a limited number of wrap-fee accounts.
The firm follows a fundamentals-based, bottom-up investment process focused on small, value companies generally with market capitalizations under $3 billion, seeking catalysts, quality management, prudent debt and solid cash-flow characteristics. Portfolios are concentrated (generally 25–35 names), remain fully invested and are researched through on-site meetings, company filings and Refinitiv Workspace analysis.
Compared with many similarly sized supported firms, Tieton reports relationships with pooled investment vehicles, investment company and pension/municipal-type clients (it notes fund-of-fund and pension clients in its disclosures), and it produces formal performance reporting — including a full performance disclosure presentation available upon request. The firm also states a capacity policy to close to new clients at $350 million to preserve its focused, model-driven approach.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
