Representative Transactions
|
Whitehall Capital Corp.’s principals have been involved in the successful sale of nearly 50 closely-held companies with aggregate transaction value exceeding $300 million. We have also assisted clients in targeting and acquiring other companies for expansion or investment purposes. Below is a summary of select transactions intended to provide insight into their business experience and acumen.
♦ Assumed CEO responsibility for the day-to-day operations of a manufacturing company upon the accidental demise of its owner. Reorganized the business in its entirety while positioning the company for ultimate sale. Following restored profitability, increasing sales, and a record backlog, the company was sold in an all cash transaction.
♦ Represented the shareholders of a retail enterprise generating approx. $30 million in revenue from 22 locations – each a separate corporation with differing ownership – in cash sales transaction to a large publicly traded, strategic buyer. The deal was reputed within the industry as the one that could not be done due to inherent complexity and varying objectives of the individual shareholders.
♦ Represented a U.S. based subsidiary of a large multinational corporation in its acquisition of a $200 million vertical acquisition that resulted with an operating business twice the pre-acquisition size of the acquirer.
♦ Represented the owner (by inheritance) of a multi-location equipment rental business in a sales transaction to a regional competitor that failed to close in the final stages due to difficulties encountered by the competitor in its own business. A second buyer was ultimately identified that completed the transaction at a valuation exceeding that originally anticipated.
♦ Engaged to take over day-to-day operations of a 100-employee manufacturing company operating under Chap. 11 protection. The operating business was successfully sold to a competitor; with all non-operating assets liquidated.
♦ Represented the shareholders of a company involved in two distinct lines of business. The ultimate plan involved dissecting and segregating the sales business from the division experiencing significant growth; followed by a successful sale of the sales business in a cash transaction.
