We at Stone Pier really need to use this platform more often! What causes me to use it now is having come across a piece noting the Mentor of the Year award given by Thiel College to my long time dear friend since Deep Well Services was a tiny little company limited to the tri-state area, CEO Mark Marmo. Mark has driven Deep Well methodically from huge success in the Appalachian Basin based on the combination of culture and technology, to the Permian and the Haynesville to Vaca Muerte in Argentina and now to the Middle East. It is an amazing story, and the company's teaming with the best in every field just creates success after success. To those of you who know Mark, you are not surprised that he still finds time to mentor young men and women. There could not be a better mentor Congrats, Mark! Well done! (Mark, I am betting you were out of the country when the award was given--friends, Mark is not in the photo!). Charlie Schliebs, Managing Director at Stone Pier Capital Advisors.

Stone Pier Capital Advisors is a Pittsburgh-based, boutique M & A, financial and strategic advisory firm.
About us
Founded in 2012 by Dale Killmeyer and Charlie Schliebs, Stone Pier Capital is a boutique merger & acquisition advisory firm, advising mostly sellers (sell-side) but also advising buyers (buy-side), with additional specialties in strategic and financial advisory services such as capital and debt restructuring, debt refinancing, etc. In addition to advising on sales or purchases of all of a company, we often advise on hybrid sales where the original owner retains a significant percentage of the company, continues as President or CEO, and looks to "take a second bite of the apple" upon a later sale. Our projects generally cover industries where we are experienced and add extra value. In the energy space, a primary area of focus for us, this includes projects in shale gas (upstream, midstream and downstream), including multiple oilfield services assignments, as well as nuclear services, wind and solar, renewable methane, coal, and other energy projects. Often related to energy, we have extensive experience representing significant engineering and construction companies. In healthcare and life sciences, we have worked on projects in the biopharma, health & wellness, healthcare software and services, workers compensation patient management and related manufacturing industries. In addition to projects for the general manufacturing, distribution and business services companies that are common in the region, we have also handled projects for a diverse array of other companies, including an international broadcast media company, a publicly-traded computer games technology company, an artisan food maker, and a craft brewery. While our clients have been in locations such as CA, FL, New England, and eastern PA, the vast majority of our projects have been located in the western PA/OH/WV area. Mission To provide high-level M&A, financial and strategic advisory services to lower middle market companies often not able to access such services at a reasonable cost.

This is an excellent article by Stone Pier's long time client (nearly ten years until the sale of The Empyrean Companies in 2022), Sushil Jain. As a nuclear engineer and leading spokesman for the nuclear industry, Sushil's Viewpoint article in the Pittsburgh Business Times highlights the exciting advancements driving the increased focus on nuclear as a clean energy source. As the founder and former leader of one of North America's largest and most sophisticated nuclear consulting firms, Sushil brings us all up to date from his vantage point as a delegate of the American Nuclear Society to the recent COP 28 in Dubai. In terms of regional economic development, the Pittsburgh region and Pennsylvania, and their political and economic development leadership, have not focused enough on the area's rich, US leading history in the nuclear industry. Not only is Beaver County the site of the first commercial nuclear reactor in the US, the list of nuclear milestones established in this region is long, highlighted by the historical and continuing achievements of Westinghouse Electric Company (aka Westinghouse Nuclear), Bechtel Nuclear (Bechtel Plant Machinery, Inc. (BPMI), prime contractor for the US Navy Nuclear Propulsion Propulsion Program), the Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory, and many more. Stone Pier was proud to have been the exclusive financial and transaction advisor to The Empyrean Companies and their Founder, President and CEO, Sushil Jain, when Empyrean was sold to Consulting Solutions, a portfolio company of Miami's White Wolf Capital Group. Empyrean is a premier provider of technical and engineering workforce solutions and consulting services for the energy sector across North America. From the design, construction, operation, and decommissioning of commercial, institutional, and government nuclear facilities, the company has supported the entire nuclear life cycle since 2000. Empyrean also delivers engineering, technical and project management services to utilities, regulated merchant power generation, renewable energy, oil, gas, and petrochemical companies across the U.S. (P.S.--I did not click on the "Rewrite with AI" button, but I will have to try it sometime, haha.) #nuclearpower, #Westinghouse, #Bechtel, #BettisAtomicEnergyLaboratory, #COP28, #Empyrean, #ConsultingSolutions, #WhiteWolfCapital

A few weeks ago Dale Killmeyer and I and the Stone Pier Team were pleased to close the sale of three pharmaceutical industry-related manufacturing operations owned by The Elizabeth Companies--in North Huntingdon, PA, McKeesport, PA, and Louisville, KY. This was a great deal for all parties that relied on our skills and experience in both manufacturing and Pharma/life sciences. At the beginning of the year, Elizabeth had 10 manufacturing facilities, five in the US, one in France, one in China. (PRC) and three in India. Stone Pier is proud to be the exclusive financial advisors to The Elizabeth Companies and their multi-generational family ownership group as appropriate transitions are designed and implemented. The Operio Group, LLC, a Fort Worth, TX based company, was the purchaser. This was an opportunity to achieve family-related estate planning and transition goals through a sale of companies with legendary Elizabeth quality (since 1954) to another company with similar family values.
