Representative Engagements
Experience that closes
A selection of engagements led by our team. Client names are withheld out of respect for confidentiality; references are available upon request.
Conducted an in-depth marketability study and valuation, then ran a limited sale process that delivered a premium valuation and all-cash structure.
Represented a primary shareholder in the complex sale of distressed, multi-stakeholder assets to a publicly traded strategic acquirer.
Prepared and positioned the company for sale, then sold a majority interest to a private equity firm at a favorable enterprise value — owners took chips off the table and all debt was recapitalized, non-recourse.
Built a fully integrated financial model quantifying the company's expansion plans and sold 100% of the business to a national strategic acquirer.
Advised a senior management team on a management-led buyout from a corporate parent, structuring terms with debt and equity investors and running a bank process to secure the best financing.
Negotiated and closed the acquisition of a complementary competitor, modeled the merger's impact, and secured acquisition financing — then refinanced equipment notes into a single asset-backed term loan.
Engaged after an owner's unexpected passing; worked with trustees to convert financials to GAAP, valued the business and real estate, and ran a formal auction process.
Negotiated and structured the acquisition of a financially distressed, related-party company — a structure that reflected economic reality while preserving family relationships.
We roll up our sleeves and stand beside our clients — from the first conversation to the closing table.
