CapitalValue facilitates acquisition of Unistaff, Inc by Select Staffing
DENVER (2009) – CapitalValue, an Englewood, Colorado based boutique investment bank, announced the acquisition of Richmond based Unistaff, Inc by Select Staffing, a California based company. CapitalValue served as the exclusive financial advisor to Unistaff, Inc. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Unistaff, Inc. is Virginia’s largest local provider of temporary staffing, temp‐to‐hire, on‐site staffing, direct hire and payroll services for light industrial and clerical services. They are consistently ranked as one of the Top 50 Employers in the Richmond area. The Company’s operations originated in 1980, and now include operations in seven locations throughout Virginia. Select Staffing is part of the Select Family of Staffing Companies, one of the nation’s fastest growing full‐service staffing companies. The company operates as Select Staffing™, Select Staffing™, Remedy® Intelligent Staffing, RemX® Financial Staffing, RemX™ IT Staffing, RemX™ OfficeStaff and other national brands.
The owners of Unistaff, Inc. were looking to transition the business to a strategic party so it could continue to grow, while also facilitating their exit opportunity. Industrial and geographic focus, strong fundamentals, a solid customer base, and a great reputation made Unistaff, Inc. and Select Staffing a great fit.
CapitalValue came in on the heels of a much larger investment bank, which had been trying unsuccessfully for sixteen months to sell the company. Once CapitalValue was brought in, Unistaff, Inc. had four serious offers and closed the deal within a year. “We were extremely happy with the dedication and service the CapitalValue staff provided,” said Unistaff, Inc. owners Helen and Bob Davison. “We were worried that we would not be able to sell the company in the declining economy, but the professionals at CapitalValue used their experience to get the deal done while maintaining value. Their persistence in managing the buyer through due diligence to close allowed us to realize maximum value.”
