ESCO has completed about 40 acquisitions over the past 10 years. The team at Valitas approached exigent issues with a high level of professional judgement, integrity, and deal-making creativity, which made dealing with the challenges that surfaced relatively painless.

When we decided to seek expert advice on our strategy, we had ambitious plans. Valitas provided us with data-driven tools to clarify our key strategic decisions.

Several times we faced serious roadblocks in our process but the Valitas team was superb in leading us through them. They were thoughtful, rational, and were laser-focused on getting the deal over the finish line.

Rather than worry about financing day-to-day activities, I am now able to focus my attention on high value growth initiatives.

After a competitor expressed interest in buying our business, I reached out to my TEC Canada chair Bruce Harbinson for advice. Bruce recommended Paris Aden at Valitas ​because of his firm's extensive experience and rigorous approach.

In the end, the price we received for Manta was at the top end of the value range Valitas provided to us prior to launching the sale process.
