Chinook Capital Advisors represents Admiralty Environmental in recapitalization by Freestone
Chinook Capital Advisors, a leading M&A advisory firm serving the needs of Pacific Northwest business owners, acted as the exclusive advisor to Admiralty Environmental (“Admiralty” or the “Company”) in its recapitalization by Freestone.
Located in Juneau, Alaska, Admiralty Environmental is the leading regional provider of environmental consulting and water-quality testing services in marine and land-based settings. Founded 20 years ago, the Company has served thousands of customers worldwide and has established itself as a market leader through its seasoned leadership and strong track record of providing comprehensive, best-in-class services.
“As a niche business looking to sell, we sought a firm to assist us in the process who we believed would appreciate our specific needs. Chinook worked hard to understand our business from the beginning and to find a buyer that valued our unique position in the market,” commented the shareholders of Admiralty, Dave Wetzel, Diana Cote, and Hope O’Neill. “Chinook’s staff are highly professional and have strong, wide connections in the business community, which allowed us to evaluate offers and make a choice that fits our business well. They were also helpful in educating us on the many intricate details of selling our business. We highly recommend them to assist any business owner who is pursuing a sale.”
“Chinook is proud to have represented the shareholders in this transaction. Dave, Diana, and Hope have built Admiralty into a leader in the industry with a global reputation. Freestone is the ideal partner to enhance Admiralty’s services and continue to grow the business in the coming years,” said Ed Kirk, Co-Founder of Chinook.
