Oaklyn Consulting congratulates its client Essco Calibration Laboratory on the company’s recent acquisition by Transcat, which was announced Aug. 5.
Oaklyn provided Essco:
- Tailored Services. Oaklyn Consulting tailored its advisory services to the specific needs of this late-stage, limited-scope transaction advisory on an efficient fee structure. Other qualified investment banks had found the situation not to be a fit for their practices.
- Collaborative Advisor. Oaklyn worked alongside Essco’s owner, management team and legal counsel to provide business and market perspective, and facilitate final diligence, from the point of LOI to closing.
The transaction, with a publicly disclosed value of $84 million, brings Essco under the umbrella of Transcat, a national provider of calibration services, test and measurement equipment, and other specialized services.
