  • Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) May 15, 2013 - The Expo enables PEGs to meet face-to-face with over 100 of the most successful and sophisticated middle-market intermediaries. This event is widely regarded as the oldest and most focused U.S. event of its type, and has culminated in hundreds of transactions.

    "This is an outstanding opportunity for PEGs as it allows them to leverage their time by meeting face-to-face with intermediaries to review acquisition opportunities and develop personal relationships," says Expo Chair Phil Wilhite, managing director of the Austin-based Corporate Investment. "The fact that attendees are experienced professionals with a substantial inventory of sellers ensures transaction activity. And PEGs will have ready access to more potential acquisitions in one day than they might see in their office in an entire month."

    Prominent PEG groups that have already committed to attend include:
    • Prospect Partners, a leading lower-middle-market private equity firm based in Chicago. Prospect Partners announced in April the formation of its latest platform, Velocity Aerospace Groups, Inc., a global provider of aviation aftermarket services and the fifth portfolio company of the firm's $200 million third fund.

    • Main Street Capital, a Houston-based principal investment firm that provides long-term debt and equity capital to middle market companies. The firm's portfolio investments are typically made to support management buyouts, recapitalizations, growth financings, re-financings and acquisitions of companies that operate in diverse industry sectors.

    • KLH Capital, a fully capitalized, SBIC-licensed private equity firm that manages $165 million in capital across two funds. During its nearly thirty-year tenure, the Tampa-based KLH has successfully completed more than 130 transactions including corporate divestitures, management buy-outs and buy-ins, family successions and retirement transactions, and re-capitalizations.

    This event is equally invaluable to intermediaries as it enables them to receive immediate feedback on possible acquisitions, develop key relationships with qualified, interested PEGs.

    Expo participation both by PEGs and intermediaries is limited, so interested parties should register for the event as soon as possible. For more information or to register online, visit the M&A Source website at http://www.masource.org or phone (404) 477-5810.
