Client Testimonial

TM Capital worked closely with our family/closely-held company, Snavely Forest Products, from the beginning to the end of the process. In our case this was over ten months. We interviewed a select group of investment banks last spring and chose TM Capital based on their front end-research, exploratory visits and the fact they took the time to get to know the company, the principals and our objectives. TM Capital guided us through the transaction with a professional approach, but never lost sight of the unique sensitivities of a family business; and along the way gave us the confidence we would achieve our objectives. If we wrote the story for our desired conclusion twelve months ago, it would match the results we achieved. That is all we can ask for."
