KROST Acts as Exclusive Financial Advisor for American Range in Sale to Hatco

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- American Range, a privately held manufacturer of commercial and residential cooking appliances, was sold to Hatco, an employee-owned manufacturer of warming, cooking, sanitizing, and cooling equipment. KROST CPAs & Consultants acted as the exclusive financial advisor to American Range in its transaction to Hatco Corporation.

American Range was founded over 40 years ago by Shane Demirjian and has become a national brand known for engineering innovation, design quality, and excellent customer service in commercial and residential cooking appliances. The company has manufacturing locations in Pacoima, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Hatco Corporation, a 100% employee-owned (ESOP) company has corporate offices in Milwaukee, and a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. The acquisition of American Range is part of Hatco's goal to broaden product offerings and expand opportunities to service customers in the food service industry.

American Range has been a client of KROST for five years. During this time, KROST provided Tax, Accounting, Consulting, R&D Tax Credit, Cost Segregation, and now Mergers & Acquisitions services. KROST's service model is designed to guide and support businesses throughout their lifecycle - from early-stage growth and development to succession and exit planning.

"When I was considering the potential sale of my business, I turned to KROST. They performed the full range of M&A services for me - from finding buyers, running a competitive bidding process, hosting management presentations, negotiating deal terms, running due diligence, and working with the legal team through the close of the transaction. They were a vital part of this transaction, and I relied on them enormously," said Shane Demirjian, Founder of American Range.

"We have been advising American Range, its owners, and its management team for over five years, so when they were considering a sale, they turned to us to run the full sell-side process for them. Because of our knowledge of their business and market, we were able to understand what was needed to get a comprehensive job done on a timely basis," said Paren Knadjian, M&A and Capital Markets Principal.

The M&A practice at KROST is led by industry veteran, Paren Knadjian, who recently became a Principal at the firm. The M&A team has been involved in over 300 transactions, consisting of outright sales of businesses, corporate divestitures, recapitalizations, acquisitions, and equity and debt financings worth over $2 billion in transaction value. The practice also offers transactional support services, including buy-side and sell-side quality of earnings reports, valuations, and due diligence services.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Effective immediately, Freedom Makers Virtual Services (FMVS) has merged with Re4ormed to create The Forum. The Forum's mission is to grow veteran and military spouse owned businesses by providing an ecosystem of support through "All Calls" and partner offerings.

All veteran and military spouse entrepreneurs are encouraged to join the community to "get a little help and give a little help" by sharing their businesses through executive pitches and connecting with one another online and in the real world.

The Forum's directory of vetted partners, business services and products can be found on FMVS's website. It provides a searchable catalog of enterprises that offer support and resources to small business patrons. It also features products from veteran and military spouse-owned companies.

"We believe small businesses make up the backbone of our country and military spouses are the backbone of our military," Laura Renner, FMVS's founder, says. "Veteran and military spouse entrepreneurs deserve marketplace access and resources. Supporting the growth and sustainability of small businesses and the income earning potential of military families are at the heart of what we do. Mark and I believe in each other's missions and I'm honored and excited to partner with him."

Innovative, Removable Mesh Sling Now Available for Exclusive Manufacture

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- California firm, ProNova Partners, has been chosen to handle the sale of the patent and rights to an easily removable mesh sling based on the natural encapsulation around monofilament wires or its interconnected narrow and flat strips. This encapsulation allows its easy removability.

15-year-old Mergers and Acquisitions firm, Los Angeles based ProNova Partners, has announced their commission to facilitate the sale of a new, patented technology for the repair of urine and fecal incontinence. This breakthrough has the potential to take over almost the entire incontinence repair market valued at billions of dollars.

"We are proud that our work worldwide has now enabled us now to assist in bringing a life-transforming technology to the market for manufacture," stated Rick Carlson CEO and founder of ProNova Partners.

In the almost two decades of its existence, ProNova Partners has overseen the sale of more than 400 opportunities in divergent areas. "This broad experience in multiple areas of the marketplace has been critical to our work in the medical and tech arenas," Carlson continued.

The patented "sling" technology available for rights purchase comes in 3 versions, all covered by patents: a weaved version, a detachable flat version, and an inflatable version for adjustment of the sub-urethral support.

The developer, an MD and a prolific inventor who owns more than 20 issued US and tens of International Patents says, "The weaved version of the sling we developed looks similar to the currently available synthetic slings and can be made from the same materials. However, there are some significant differences: differing from all the other available slings ours are not knitted, they are weaved making them more flexible and thinner."

"We are proud to be offering the full rights and ownership of this technological breakthrough into the marketplace for manufacture," concluded Carlson. "The offering includes all patents and will improve quality of life immediately for hundreds of thousands of patients, and once released those numbers will grow to millions."

FMTC Safety Continues Expansion with On-Site Training & Instruction Acquisition

HOUMA, La. -- FMTC Safety is continuing its global expansion in the Offshore, Wind, Maritime, and Industry sectors by acquiring Houma-based On-Site Training & Instruction. With this acquisition, the Houma location now offers certified OPITO training, a safety training for Oil, Gas, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) workers. Later this year, the company will obtain the certified STCW accreditation and offer various STCW training courses, safety training for seafarers which will make FMTC Safety the first and only one-stop-shop for workplace safety courses in the USA.

Besides Houma, FMTC has five locations in The Netherlands, one in Dunkirk, France, and one in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia. FMTC offers compliant training according to domestic and international accrediting standards such as GWO, STCW, OSHA, OPITO, and customized training for all sectors.

International certification, same family business:

The acquisition of On-Site Training & Instruction by FMTC Safety originates from a solid 3-year partnership between the two companies. The partnership in Houma was FMTC's first international experience and turned FMTC from a national Dutch company into a global company. Acquiring the Houma location is seen as the start of expanding further in the USA.

By combining the strengths of both companies, the Houma location is now able to offer training in accordance with the OSHA standards, and the newest international standards. In addition, the facilities have been improved, and courses can now be booked online at any given moment the client prefers. In addition, FMTC guarantees that courses always take place, even with just one trainee. Besides these modernizations of the Houma-based company, the course additions, and the new name, the company is still run by the same trusted employees.

Kaylab Verdin, Center Manager FMTC Houma: "We are delighted that FMTC decided to invest in our company in Houma. FMTC understands our unique company culture. We now work under the FMTC banner, but we are still the same devoted family business. And even though Winona 'Bebe' Mahler McElroy, the founder of On-Site, has now retired, her son Alfred Fox is still as involved as always as we continue to help our clients to the safest work environments with our dedicated team."

First woman founder and CEO:

Winona "Bebe" Mahler McElroy founded On-Site in 1989. She was the first woman founder and CEO in the male-dominated safety industry. Breaking through tradition and stereotypes, Winona McElroy became the first woman firefighter in Houma. She was known for taking every possible safety training she could, which eventually led to her being asked to teach a Hazmat training, a course for dealing with dangerous substances. Soon many other companies caught on and asked her to be their safety instructor as well.

"At that time, I was driving around Houma with a 10 lb. extinguisher in my jeep and I was getting paid by teaching hundreds of men working with hazardous material. As a woman, when I proactively started offering safety courses to companies, many thought I was just a sales representative. They were all amazed that I was the one teaching the courses and it was my company. This is how I got started and founded On-Site Training & Instruction in the late eighties. I am happy that On-Site is in such good hands with FMTC and they continue to bring safety to the workplace!"

About FMTC Safety:

FMTC Safety is the safety training center for Offshore training, Wind training, Maritime training, and Industry training offering certified training according to international standards. The company's goal is to smartly and sustainably enhance safety in the workplace with respect for people, the planet, and the environment. FMTC's unique selling point is its client-based approach. The client always decides when they want to train and where the training will take place. At this moment, FMTC has 9 training locations around the world. Two locations are in The Netherlands, one in Dunkirk, France, one in Houma, Louisiana, USA, and one in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
