Third Coast Capital Advisors served as exclusive financial advisor to HeartLand Company, a portfolio company of Sterling Investment Partners in its acquisition of Perficut.  Our Acquisition Search services included identifying the target and making contact with its owner, as well as providing assistance on valuation, transaction structure and the negotiation and closing of the transaction. This transaction is a good example of our ability to identify and execute proprietary, strategic add-on acquisitions for private equity portfolio companies.
