DFW Private Investments Q1 2012

It seems the market for private capital in Dallas-Fort Worth is a little top-heavy this year. According to a survey conducted by the Dallas Business Journal, DFW area companies raised $574 million from private equity, venture capital and angel investments during the first quarter of 2012.  However, two deals (Ennis-Flint and Lucid Energy) accounted for $480 million, or 84% of the total private investment in DFW during that fiscal quarter.
