Irvine Associates Group LLC is a privately held CORPORATE FINANCE GROUP founded in 1984, specializing in providing Transaction-oriented expertise to middle-market Manufacturing and Distribution companies. Our Client base ranges from Consumer and Industrial products to Service companies. Our typical Client is either experiencing the Capital/Liquidity constraints of rapid growth or under-performing operations, or is seeking to capitalize on the increase in Shareholder value through mergers, acquisitions or corporate roll-ups. We work with our Client companies in completing specific Transactions by providing or arranging for Equity/Subordinated Debt, Institutional Debt, and Merger & Acquisition and Roll-up Services.
Our 33 years of building Relationships with both our Clients and sources of Financing has been the nucleus of our success. With over 125 completed Transactions, we have developed an experienced and focused approach to negotiating and completing Transactions in a timely and effective manner.
Our key point of leverage or differentiation is the Operational Approach to Transactions developed by the Partners in the Firm. Each Partner has Line Operating Experience inside Private, Public and Financial Services firms. Our Partners have had careers in positions ranging from Corporate Banking, Private Equity, Corporate CFO/Treasury, Public Accounting, Manufacturing Operations, and President/CEO level positions. This operational insight gives us the advantage of relating to not only our Client's needs but also how our Debt, Equity or M&A sources will approach a given Transaction.
The second key to our business approach is that we believe “it’s Relationships that count.” As an extension to these relationships, we have been asked to participate on many of the Boards of Directors of our Clients, allowing us to assist in developing Long-Term corporate Strategies and participate in increasing Shareholder value for our Clients. The ultimate success of the Companies for which we have provided services continues to enhance the rapport we have with our Financing sources.
