HISTORY
Signet, LLC was founded in 1995 as an asset management organization focused on real estate and venture based investments with a strategy of holding assets for the long term.
Signet LLC expanded it's service offerings to include Signet Capital Advisors, a mergers and acquisitions and business strategy advisory group serving clients throughout the United States and around the world.
Since its founding, Signet LLC has made over $5 billion of real estate investments and holds eleven operating businesses. Additionally, the Signet Capital Advisors team has closed more than $20 billion collectively in mergers and acquisitions and advisory transactions.
THE SIGNET DIFFERENCE
-
Signet Capital Advisors, LLC (“SCA”) works exclusively with founder owned businesses and family offices. We are not conflicted with trying to sell companies to buyers who we might want to represent in a future transaction (e.g. private equity)
-
Neither SCA nor any of its related operating divisions operate or are affiliated with a private equity arm that might also be interested in acquiring businesses we represent. SCA believes that working on “both sides of the table” creates an inherent conflict that could take away value from our clients. We also never invest alongside buyers in our sell-side engagements to further avoid any conflicts
-
All SCA senior team members work on each deal from start to finish and are deeply involved in every step of the process
-
Corporate M.P.G™ - SCA believes in a holistic approach to analyzing each client’s business to optimize value and preparing the company and its shareholders to select their best partner
-
SCA leads the development of a three year growth strategy so buyers can visualize and calculate the value created by growth in the areas of products/services, geography, customers and target industries. The goal is to create an implementable plan that management buys into and can articulate and to which buyers assign value
-
Signet offers a breadth of post-transaction opportunities to sellers who are interested in such things. The possibilities range from co-investing in real estate, serving as an advisor to intellectual properties deals, to networking within the broad Signet family to see what might come up that interests you now or in the future.
