2021 Recap / 2022 Preview
We are appreciative of the trust placed in our firm by our clients and numerous trusted business advisors which helped make 2021 another successful year for Promontory Point Capital. Looking ahead to 2022, we are excited to be celebrating our 18th year in serving as a valued and trusted advisor to a growing number of privately-held, many of which are family-held, businesses.
Since being established in 2004, Promontory Point Capital has successfully led over 150 client engagements encompassing ownership transition objectives, corporate finance initiatives, as well as a variety of strategic goals.

We welcome the opportunity during 2022 to collaborate with business owners, family ownership groups, company leadership teams, as well as other trusted business advisors on how Promontory Point Capital’s investment banking expertise can be helpful to the achievement of strategic and financial objectives. Many inquiries to Promontory Point Capital include business objectives encompassing:
- Ownership Planning, including Transition & Liquidity Goals: We are frequently introduced to owners or senior management teams when owners are interested in learning about their options involving a potential sale of all or a portion of their business. We have arranged transactions involving strategic partners, private equity firms, ESOPs, management buyouts, and other types of shareholder “recaps” including both minority and majority recapitalizations.
- Financing, Refinancing, & Debt Restructuring: A company may have either short-term or long-term funding needs that are beyond the comfort zone of its existing senior bank lender. PPC arranges capital for companies including senior bank debt, non-bank debt, subordinated debt, sale-leaseback, and other forms of institutional funding to fund growth, acquisitions, shareholder redemptions, management buyouts, and other corporate purposes.
- Strategic Growth/M&A: A company may have an interest in growing and expanding by acquisition or strategic joint venture and wish to have an initial conversation regarding their strategic growth objectives.
Whether initiatives are being contemplated during 2022, 2023, or even beyond this timeline, to ensure success, we have found it is never too early to begin planning for tomorrow’s goals. We look forward to connecting with you early during the New Year and invite you to visit PPC’s website at www.promontorypointcapital.com for additional information on our firm’s advisory services, investment banking capabilities, and numerous client successes.
