“Newport was our sole exclusive advisor who worked with us from “cradle to grave” in managing the sale of our company. We quickly got to know them, liked them, and, most importantly, trusted them. With that basis, they expertly structured a transaction process that was transparent, organized, and ideal in all respects for achieving our objectives. Newport managed the process with the utmost integrity, diligence, and expertise, and we ultimately sold to a publicly-traded company on optimal terms. They may well be the best sell-side advisors serving the lower middle market. Our transaction could not have been handled better.”

With assistance from Newport’s team, the newly-formed deal team had to quickly learned about each other’s strengths and working styles. They worked with us to not only guide us through the process of target sourcing but also were instrumental in representing our brand to the prospective target companies. Their soft touch approach, deep expertise in growth strategies and execution, and willingness to roll-up their sleeves was instrumental in our success.
