FOCUS provides a range of investment banking services tailored to the needs of emerging growth and middle market businesses. We are a national firm serving clients from offices in major cities across the United States. We specialize in serving businesses with revenues or transaction sizes between $5 million and $300 million.
FOCUS bankers have been involved in almost all conceivable alternatives for enhancing shareholder value and then monetizing that value.
Many FOCUS investment banking partners are seasoned operating executives with prior experience as CEOs, COOs and CFOs. Unlike the typical investment banker that has only a financial background, these FOCUS bankers understand the operating nuances of a business and can serve your client’s needs with a consultative approach.
Many investment banking firms that serve much larger market clients have dedicated research functions. These departments, working for larger firms, usually identify publicly traded companies with which they may want to enter into a transaction. Because this information is a matter of public record, it is easily obtained. It is highly unusual for an investment banking firm serving the emerging growth and middle market to have a dedicated research department. FOCUS has such a research department, and with many supplementary resources, including a proprietary database of more than 18,000 contacts which enables us to delve deeper and identify most privately-owned firms which would otherwise not be available for your consideration.
FOCUS partners leverage years of experience in this marketplace in order to maximize the chances for a successful transaction. Because we specifically target this space we have the necessary experience to service all of your needs.
FOCUS’ national scope gives partners around the country the ability to collaborate and put together teams of partners and senior advisors who will bring even more experience to your transaction.
