Vertical SaaS

"Our company presented an interesting challenge for even the most skilled Strategic Advisor. Knowing our situation was somewhat unique and complex, we carefully selected our partner for this process. The AGC team had solid subject matter expertise and their approach to our engagement was thoughtful and ultimately produced a very positive outcome for our shareholders, customers, employees and the acquiring business. Fred and his team played a key role in the timing of the process, the positioning of the business overall and in every stage leading to Closing. I would highly recommend AGC and Fred and hope to have the opportunity to work with them again in the future."

When the FRS shareholders decided to review their strategic options for the business they had a number of criteria for selecting an investment banker. The banker had to be familiar with FRS's vertical market and with likely interested parties in both the European and North American markets. Given FRS would only get one shot at the process we also wanted the process 'partner led.' In AGC's Sean Tucker, based in London, and Dennis Rourke, based in Boston, we found two experienced and commercially savvy partners who met these criteria. Markus and Dennis provided sound advice throughout and always had our best interest at heart. I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone considering selling their business.

In order to continue our success and ultimately provide better solutions and service for our clients, we needed an investment banking partner that was highly knowledgeable of our market and business model while having close relationships within the growth equity community. The AGC team truly understood the nuances of our business and were able to generate excitement around our story and triple-digit annual revenue growth over the past few years. We look forward to working with AGC on future transactions and appreciate the 24/7 commitment they delivered day-in and day-out.
