  Provide investment banking services to lower-middle-market companies. Sell-side representation for owners of privately held companies seeking to sell all or part of their company, or corporations selling a division or business line. Also assist with raising debt or equity capital for growth, dividend recapitalization, or financial restructuring. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ All the directors of Telos Capital Advisors have experience managing companies as senior officers. This means we’ve faced industry and competitive challenges, we’ve experienced hiring and employee performance issues, and we’ve been through the transaction process as an insider. Simply put, these experiences favorably shape how we approach transactions. We see and explain operational and strategic value where others can only see a transaction checklist. As former insiders, we also work transactions differently. The Directors all individually originate, manage, and process the transactions. We do not hand off the workload to less experienced individuals, because we resolutely believe that spending time directly with that client, is the only way an advisor can truly understand that client and the vision for the Company. This unique approach to investment banking helps us communicate, to potential suiters, the vision, passions, and all the other little details that owner-operators often do to attract and retain their customers and employees. That is how we unlock and maximize value.
