The Pompeo Group, Inc. is proud to announce our strategic alliance with Leaders LLC, a leading Merger and Acquisition firm. Their expertise in the M&A field can assist you in finding the buyer, seller, or investment partner that is right for you.

Leaders LLC has a tremendous depth of experience developed through many years, with well over 100 transactions closed and, as a member of the International Network of M&A Partners, provides M&A and Intermediary services worldwide. Recently the former two-term Governor of Maine, Angus King, Jr. has joined their team. Governor King brings a background of strong business knowledge and negotiating power to their firm.

Combine this resource with The Pompeo Group’s nearly two decades of lighting industry experience and you can be assured that we can help your firm source the right buyer, the best merging partners or the most strategic acquisition targets. We will assist you in obtaining industry information that you just won’t find in your standard Wall Street financials, while maintaining the confidentiality you have come to know and expect from us.

Please feel free to ask us about a no-obligation meeting. Representatives from Leaders LLC and The Pompeo Group will be pleased to meet with you at your convenience to discuss any future M& plans you may be contemplating. It is never too early to start planning an exit strategy that will maximize the value of your company. We can also assist you in seeking acquisitions or effecting a recapitalization plan that may be used to ‘take some chips off the table’ or bring in equity to fuel future growth.

Both Leaders and The Pompeo Group understand the importance of confidentiality and we base our reputations on extreme sensitivity to this matter. As a result, much of our work comes through referrals from satisfied clients. Please call or e-mail me if you would like to meet or just have a preliminary phone conversation to discuss any M & A options you may be considering.
