立石为Rotunda 投资资产组合中的物流专家Amware 的企业再融资提供咨询
Livingstone is pleased to announce the refinancing of Amware Fulfillment, LLC (“the Company”), a portfolio company of Rotunda Capital Partners (“Rotunda”). First and second lien capital was supplied by Capital Southwest Corporation (Nasdaq: CSWC) and Avante Mezzanine Partners, respectively.
Amware provides value-added customized warehousing and fulfillment solutions to small and medium sized businesses across the United States. With clients across a range of industries, Amware has gained a reputation as a leading logistics provider to both the business-to-consumer (“B2C”) and business-to-business (“B2B”) segments. The Company boasts a combined 1.6M square footage of warehouse space in six locations across the U.S. Additionally, the Company is led by a seasoned management team with decades of experience.
John Fruehwirth, Managing Partner at Rotunda Capital commented on Livingstone’s access to lenders across the middle market: “Given Rotunda’s collective experience of doing deals in the middle market, we have always felt that we had a good handle on the debt markets. In this transaction however, we relied on Livingstone to gain access to new pockets of capital and provide real-time knowledge of other transactions in the marketplace to source a stable capital structure that allows Amware to execute our growth plans.”
Tom Lesch, Livingstone’s Debt Advisory Partner, added, “the sheer amount of financing solutions across the middle market is astounding. With so many options available, financial sponsors increasingly look to Livingstone to run a thorough process that secures financing solutions customized appropriately to their complex transaction needs.”
Amware marks the fifth transaction for Livingstone’s global Debt Advisory team in 2016. The Amware transaction is the latest example of financial sponsors engaging Livingstone’s debt advisory practice. Other recent clients include Sun Capital Partners, Calvert Street Capital Partners, Brockway Moran and MML Capital Partners.
