Testimonial

Client:   Concept Industries, Inc., Boston, MA
Focus:   Divestitures
Historical Perspective:

Concept was a profitable $30 million convention services business with offices throughout the U.S. and Canada. The company was forced to liquidate when the entire senior management team defected to a competitor. Concept was left with no viable means of continuing operations and approximately $7 million of bank debt to pay down. Robert Ryan Management Consultancy (RRMC) was introduced to the company by its legal counsel.

This situation required the division and sale of the business to three buyers for $7.6 million. These sales also required the negotiation and resolution of approximately $1 million of post-closing adjustments and extensive follow-up to ensure smooth payment compliance.

RRMC also supervised the collection of $3 million in receivables, resolved IRS problems in four states, and settled numerous open litigation matters.

“This was a horrible ordeal and without Bob we never would have made it. He has the ability to manage a zillion things at once and never gets rattled. He traveled all around this country and Canada selling off and closing up our companies.

Bob cared about us personally and worked tirelessly on our behalf. I am deeply grateful to him for what he did.”

– Ernest Marks, Chairman (retired)
Concept Industries
