ORC was introduced to Scott Upton and ICG from a prior client that had a wonderful experience using ICG for their Sale transaction, after an introduction it was clear that ICG’s team was a good fit for ORC. ORC spent several years in high growth mode, and we knew we did not want to be acquired by a competitor. We spoke with Scott about our desire to be a platform company and use the internal infrastructure created to continue our growth model. Scott quickly helped us create a management presentation to bring this idea to life. His understanding of the market allowed us to capitalize on finding an equity partner that aligned with our culture and values. Scott’s understanding of family businesses helped us navigate the transition and educate all parties during the process. ORC had been family owned since 1969 and Scott had the ability to take a complex process and make it easier to navigate. With his guidance we received a competitive price, multiple offers and completed the transaction much quicker than ever anticipated. He was always available to answer any questions, mitigate competing concerns and keep it fun along the journey. I highly recommend him and the ICG team, we would use him again.

The knowledge and expertise that Scott and his colleagues had of our marketplace was invaluable and allowed us to continue to focus on our business while navigating our transaction which was extremely complex. Having a respected and experienced investment banker representing us made all of the difference. We would highly recommend ICG.

After looking to explore the possibility of selling my company, my advisors at Merrill Lynch put me into contact with ICG Capital, and I’m very thankful they did. ICG Capital advised and guided me step by step through the entire M&A process, from identifying potential buyers all the way through closing. They were in constant communication and helped me navigate through complex situations with ease. ICG Capital served as a reliable partner and found not just a buyer, but the right strategic partner to purchase my company for the best long term results. I would highly recommend ICG Capital to anyone seeking guidance throughout the M&A process.

We were introduced to Scott and the team at ICG by a trusted advisor. Following an initial call, he suggested a path to help us identify potential strategic options for our company.
Their direct approach was a great fit and in a short amount of time, ICG identified a realistic valuation range and potential partners to consider. As the process evolved, they provided guidance and streamlined the flow of information for everyone involved. This enabled us to find the right partner and arrangement that worked for all.
ICG was involved throughout the process and made sure all areas were covered. We remain very pleased with the outcome and direction of our business moving forward..

The ICG Capital team brought a wealth of experience to the table during our transaction and made It a positive experience for the physicians as well as, the private equity firm that partnered with our organization. The knowledge and expertise that Scott and his team provided was vital, and allowed us to continue to focus on the clinical care of patients while we moved through the process. Their previous experience in selling these types of practices set them apart from other firms we interviewed, and they came highly recommended from colleagues. Their no nonsense “straight-shooter” approach was also refreshing and we knew they were always advocating for us. Additionally, whether it was financial analysis, marketing plans, equity vetting or customer scrutiny, having a respected and experienced investment banker representing us was invaluable.

ICG conducted a highly effective and thorough sale process on behalf of North Carolina Granite and our shareholders. Our company was over 130 years old and we wanted to protect our employees and legacy. We chose ICG due to their track record and their keen understanding of the business as well as our collective goals and objectives. ICG was instrumental throughout the of the entire transaction in managing both complex issues and finding the right partner to accelerate the growth of the company. The team at ICG helped us understand the implications and benefits of critical decisions and facilitated a process that resulted in a great outcome for both NCG and our shareholders and management. We highly recommend ICG as an advisor.

Scott Upton and the ICG Capital team where recommend to me by another trusted advisor. I had tried to go it alone to transition Air Components & Systems, Ltd to new ownership but was unable to find a reasonable partner that provided a market value for my company. Scott and his team quickly took action to help with this process. They developed a strong marketing presentation, found a great group of interested parties and we had multiple offers in a modest timeframe. These offers where much better in structure as well as price than what I had been able to secure. ICG stayed with us through the entire process to close with great encouragement, advice, and timely follow ups to get our deal accomplished. I have recommended Scott and the ICG team to other companies and would highly endorse them as a trusted partner.

The ICG team have consistently delivered outstanding results for Syncot Plastics. We have established a unique relationship by utilizing ICG’s expertise completing a successful buy-side transaction and the ultimate sale of Syncot to the current management team. ICG Capital exceeded our expectations with each of these transactions including thoroughly understanding the strengths and special attributes of the business and navigating typical family business issues along the way. Scott Upton and his team have been an invaluable part of our company’s strategic growth.

Brian O’Hayre

My company operates in a very specialized sector of healthcare with challenges that are unique to our industry. I decided to engage ICG Capital and could not be happier with the result. ICG’s approach to the process that they outlined for me was instrumental to the success of this transaction resulting in a value that far exceeded my expectation. ICG gave my management team an accurate “pre-read” of the market before engagement to ensure that we were all on the same page and kept me updated in a timely manner on the process and continuously advised me on any issues that occurred.

ICG’s attention to detail throughout the entire transaction allowed my management team to remain focused on operating the business. After evaluating several companies, I selected ICG Capital as a partner because they focused on supporting my management team and understood my company’s growth objectives. I would not hesitate to use or recommend ICG again and their track record of closing transactions speaks for itself.
