OUR FOUNDERS

Meet the Founders

Kratos Capital was built by a team specializing in transactions capitalized between $25 million and $300 million, with industry-tailored expertise that helps owners protect the time, money, and hard work they've put into their companies. Together, our bankers have led over $1 billion in completed transactions across more than 200 private middle-market deals.

We measure success the way our clients do, by outcomes. That's why our process routinely produces strong initial offers and deals that close at or above the client's original valuation range.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US

5.0 / 5.0

The Kratos Capital team was 100% dedicated in ensuring a successful outcome of our transaction. Not only was the team available and responsive 24/7, but the senior-level attention was clear from the start and helped us navigate challenging, industry-specific issues that required true expertise. Result - 11x's all cash offer!

Michael Davis

Capital Distributing, Inc

Confidence - that is the true, defining takeaway from our experience with Kratos Capital. In every phase of the deal we received personalized, relevant and strong counsel that gave us the confidence that we were making the right decisions the whole way through. There is no doubt in my mind that they were uniquely suited to provide the best possible service with their intelligent, forthright and determined approach. They are absolutely the guys you want on your side of the table.

Seth Mitchell

ReedMitchell Agency, Inc.

Kratos Capital managed our process beyond our expectations. We felt the Kratos Capital team structured our deal in a way that put more money in our pocket at closing. Our family would welcome the opportunity to recommend Kratos Capital as the “go to” firm when selling a sizable middle market business.

Ron & Becky Armstrong

Clear Guard Products, Inc.

I am pleased to say when I met Kratos Capital, that they took the time to evaluate our market potential and several deal probable outcomes. The team not only told me they could complete our deal, but for more money - both of which turned out to be true. Kratos originated over six offers for my business. The firm had a great handle on the closing process, in addition to negotiating a very favorable equity agreement for me and the other shareholders. Ultimately, the final purchase price netted an 84% premium, higher than any unsolicited offer we ever had received prior to engaging the professionals at Kratos Capital. Simply stated, we received a better deal because of the services provided by Kratos Capital!

Regan Quaal

Albie’s Foods, Inc

After interviewing several potential investment banks, I felt the team at Kratos Capital was the most knowledgeable. Their boutique feel meant I wouldn’t get lost in the mix. The sale of my business proved my decision was the right one. I would highly recommend Kratos to anyone who asked.

Stuart Feldman

Gulf & Basco

Kratos Capital provided unmatched, hands-on, senior-level attention throughout my transaction. The team worked tirelessly to execute a highly disciplined process in order to maximize my sale price. Not only did Kratos provide expert negotiating support, but the team also devised a unique transaction structure, which overcame a potential deal breaker and created additional shareholder value.

Dave Meheen

Kratos Capital exceeded our high expectations in every way. From start to finish, they were singularly focused on ensuring the transaction closed by managing the deal and their client in a professional manner.

Our Commitment to Your Life's Work

No two companies are alike, and we don't believe an exit strategy should be either. As a boutique M&A advisory firm, we build a managed, tailored process around each transaction instead of relying on the cookie-cutter approach that leaves other clients feeling like a number.
