We deliver efficient, trustworthy, and experienced Merger and Acquisition services to businesses in the lower middle market ranging from $5 million – $150 million in enterprise value. With nearly 40 years of deep learned, real world deal experience, we understand how transactions work before they start through after they close.
The investment banking professionals at S&P Capital Partners successfully bridge the gap between main street SBA business brokerage companies with limited access to M&A and non-government underwritten capital markets, and the institutional investment banking firms who acquire businesses in the upper middle market.
