After a comprehensive, custom-built and accelerated marketing process, CM&Co created a competitive bidding environment among a mix of private equity, family office, and strategic buyers, as well as independent sponsors. Given the competitive dynamics and CM&Co’s thoughtful negotiation, the initial prospective buyer increased their ultimate bid by nearly 40% to surpass the others and secure exclusivity with PCI. During exclusivity, PCI ownership elected to move forward with a different party.
