Because Results Matter

Promontory Point Capital is an investment banking boutique with a primary focus on privately-held, many of which are family-held, businesses located in the Midwest. Our firm is engaged by both younger and mature companies in a variety of industries that are seeking transaction advisory expertise or financing to achieve growth, ownership liquidity, and/or other strategic or financing objectives.

M&A Advisory Services

As an investment banking boutique, Promontory Point Capital has amassed significant experience in advising clients on a variety of ownership liquidity, growth by acquisition, and other initiatives focused on growing and/or realizing shareholder value.

Ownership Transitions

For most privately-held business owners, a vast majority of their personal net worth is directly tied to their ownership interest in their business. PPC advises business owners on a wide spectrum of alternatives and considerations involving their ownership transition goals.

Mergers & Acquisitions

Whether your Company is striving to grow externally via merger, acquisition, joint venture, or strategic collaboration, does your organization have both the dedicated resources and experience to successfully lead such an initiative? PPC can help.

Shareholder Recapitalization

When companies have shareholders with differing investment horizons or liquidity objectives, a full sale of the business may be impractical. PPC helps arrange debt and equity capital to facilitate a range of shareholder liquidity goals, in addition to providing a fresh source of capital to support the business’s future growth.

Advisory Services

PPC provides expert advisory services led by dedicated, experienced professionals to address a variety of strategic and financial initiatives critical to the business. Let members of PPC work alongside senior leadership to add a fresh perspective to your company’s planning and execution team.

Financing Alternatives

Debt & Equity Capital

Whether your business is seeking debt or equity capital, early or late-stage financing, or something in between, chances are good that we have had a client in a similar situation.

Refinancing & Restructuring

PPC manages all aspects of the financing transaction, from initial discussions with appropriate financing candidates, to the negotiation of competing term sheets, ultimately through closing.
