“The RA team understood and captured our vision for the business. They really went into the smallest details beyond anything I could have expected. Importantly, they positioned the company to tell a forward-looking story supported by our growth. They did a great job of steering us in the right direction and always moved the process forward.  RA Capital was the right people at the right time, and I would recommend them to anybody.”

“The personality of RA. They cared about who we were. They cared about our goals. We spent quite a bit of time upfront talking about what we wanted. We told them we were very concerned about our employees. We were concerned about our customers. We were concerned about preserving the company and not seeing it broken apart. We had some specific things that we were willing to entertain and not go outside of those boundaries. They spent time to understand this in the beginning. They then told us what we might expect, what the timeline might look like, and gave us expectations of what we were about to embark upon. It was very well informed before we even got started. You find somebody that you can work with, who cares about what you want to do, puts your goals up front and makes the thing work that way. RA Capital did.”

“We felt that RA Capital was extremely well qualified and fit our needs better than all the other firms. One of the things that inspired us so much was that RA Capital has a lot of staff who are CPAs and accountants themselves, in addition to being deal makers. So many firms are basically salesman and not steeped as well in facts and circumstances, as we felt RA Capital was. We were a little concerned about their ability to market, but that was not a problem at all. We were, I think, one step ahead of the whole process every bit along the way and the valuation of the company increased many times beyond what we had expected.”

“We initially chose RA Capital because they did a good job of understanding all of our competing needs from a transaction. Throughout the entire process they kept all of those needs in mind, whether they related to shareholders, employees, or management. They helped us achieve the right balance between maximizing shareholder value and finding the right buyer for our company’s ongoing operations. And when it came to negotiating the final details of the deal, I felt that our team was fully prepared and firmly in the driver’s seat.”
