Capstone Partners Advised The Partner Companies (TPC) on Junior Debt Financing

Capstone Partners advised The Partner Companies (TPC) — a Chicago-based global network of advanced manufacturers—on the closing of $35 million in junior debt financing, the proceeds of which were used to partially refinance senior debt and provide growth capital, supporting TPC’s advanced manufacturers’ creation of high-precision technical products that supply innovators in the aerospace, defense, clean energy, medical, and technology industries. The financing will also support TPC’s long-term strategy of identifying, evaluating, and acquiring companies that expand its capabilities and capacity to best serve its customers.

TPC operates ten advanced manufacturers and supports each member entity with expertise in business growth, operations, finance, human resources, and supply chain management. TPC and its advanced manufacturers offer a diversified mix of specialized fabrication services including photofabrication, optics production, and precision machining to a diverse blue-chip customer base of over 500 global companies. TPC’s network operates throughout the United States, Mexico, China, and the United Kingdom. For more information, visit The Partner Companies here.

Capstone Partners has been a trusted partner and advisor throughout this process, and we look forward to TPC’s growth trajectory as a result.
