"Dunn represented, marketed and successfully sold our business. My partner and I interviewed a number of investment bankers prior to the transaction and chose Kevin because of his broad industry experience, professional reputation and ability to get deals done. Kevin and his team learned everything about our business and put together a comprehensive offering memorandum which generated tremendous interest from both private equity and strategic buyers. Kevin conducted an efficient auction of our company and was able to "walk-up" the ultimate sale price substantially. We never second guessed our decision to hire Kevin and I strongly recommend him for consideration for your project."
"Kevin and Greg helped me work through a very complicated series of simultaneous acquisition opportunities. They lined up and negotiated the necessary equity and debt financings, and worked through all the issues to get the best deal closed in tough market conditions. They gave me great advice throughout the process and did whatever it took to help me get it done."
