Lynxs operates air cargo facilities in US airports, including the Austin-Bergstrom International, Houston's George H.W. Bush Intercontinental, O'Hare Airport in Chicago and Ted Stevens International Airport in Anchorage. Lynxs develops its CargoPort facilities with local partners. "Our recapitalization drive signals our intent to go to the next stage of expansion," Ray Brimble, the managing partner of Lynxs Group, said in a statement.

Brimble tells GlobeSt.com that he wants to raise about $100 million in debt and equity. He and CB Richard Ellis executives are seeking to tap institutional investors or real estate investors for the capital.

Expansion would be in Europe and Latin America, says Brimble, who spoke by phone from London's Heathrow Airport. He was overseas checking out expansion possibilities and investors. He declined to be more specific about expansion sites.
