Success Stories From Our Clients
“The FOCUS team expertly coordinated a process that generated significant interest in my company from the market. The ultimate result of that process yielded a positive outcome for me personally and professionally as well as for the employees of HL Precision Manufacturing and its enduring future in an increasingly consolidating industry. Our deal combined elements of a merger, sale, and acquisition all resulting in the formation of a new parent company, H3 Manufacturing Group, LLC which now owns both HL Precision as well as Hi-Grade Welding & Mfg. The work done by the FOCUS team was disciplined, very well documented, and portrayed HL Precision in an accurate and attractive manner. I would very much recommend FOCUS to other business owners and CEO’s looking to take their company to market and/or seek strategic partners for their road ahead.”
