CCG Advisors today announced the acquisition of its
client, Latite Roofing & Sheetmetal Company, by
Lincolnshire Management.
Latite was represented by CCG Advisors, a merger
and acquisition firm based in
Atlanta
specializing in the sale of privately-held businesses.
CCG Advisors worked closely with teams from Latite and Lincolnshire to facilitate the partnership
between the two.
“I am happy that the deal is closed and I cannot
thank the folks at CCG enough for the support and the
hard work required to get this deal across the finish
line,” said Steve Struve, president of Latite.
South Florida-based Latite Roofing and Sheet Metal has
provided roofing services to national, regional, and
local property owners, managers, developers, and
builders in both the commercial and residential sectors
since 1943.
The company prides itself on its commitment to
excellence in roofing and customer service.
CCG Advisors assisted Latite with a previous
recapitalization in 2007 when the company was acquired
by a private equity group.
At that time, Latite had grown to become the
fourth largest roofing company in the United States, with revenues of over
$150 million and a workforce of nearly a thousand
people. The
company survived the harsh housing recession in
Florida
by continuing to grow their market share of business and
flexibly restructuring the company as needed.
Lincolnshire’s investment will allow Latite’s
rich tradition of excellence to continue with a renewed
opportunity to grow the company, starting with the
strongest balance sheet in the industry.
“It
is a new day at Latite,” said president Steve Struve.
“With the strength of our new financial partner
and the injection of cash onto our balance sheet, we are
better positioned than any company in our industry in
terms of taking advantage of the improving economy.”
