Selected Transaction: M&A Seller Representation


The Client
Advanced Materials Group, Inc. ("AMG") is headquartered in Rancho Dominguez, California. AMG’s mission is to become a leading producer of industrial products and proprietary materials, particularly engineered materials. AMG’s strategy calls for an aggressive and focused domestic and international acquisition program designed to assure future growth and maximize shareholder value.
The Assignment
Context Capital Group ("Context Capital") was retained by Advanced Materials Group to design and execute a growth through acquisition strategy. During this process, AMG's management did not want to divert their attention from the day-to-day operations of the Company and felt retaining an investment banking firm with experience in middle market acquisitions would lead to a larger deal flow, thus permitting the Company to be selective in pursuing targets and determining value. The growth through acquisition program designed by Context Capital encouraged a large group of acquisition professionals, brokers, finders, and investment bankers to bring acquisition ideas to AMG.. Condor Utility Products was the first acquisition completed, and was identified and closed within 120 days of beginning the assignment.
Subsequent to this transaction, Price Paschall, Managing Director of Context Capital was asked to join the board of directors of AMG.
