They immediately saw what we were about, not just financially but culturally, which we felt was equally important in the type of deal we were seeking. They guided us through a very complicated deal and always had the best interests of the business and management team top of mind. We are excited about our future and we wouldn’t be here without Peakstone navigating this deal for us.”
