Logistics and Business Services Capital (LBSC) History:
LBSC was founded in 2012 as a successor company to MergeGlobal, Inc. Its founder, Jim Westphal, brought a unique combination of investment banking, strategy, and industry expertise to solving clients’ strategic challenges. Jim also brought the view that, too often, investment bankers take a narrow approach to supporting clients by focusing primarily on “processing” transactions rather than considering the transaction within the context of shareholders’ longer term strategic and financial objectives and alternatives.
Logistics and Business Services Capital Approach:
LBSC provides its clients with three advantages not emphasized by large investment banks:
1. Real industry expertise 2. Dynamic strategic perspective 3. Creative thinking tailored to each situation
Real Industry Expertise:
LBSC has a narrow but deep industry focus. LBSC’s team has spent years largely dedicated to these sectors. Our conceptual and quantitative approaches are balanced with a practical understanding of what is possible in our sectors, enabling us to better understand issues such as valuation and capital structure. We know the buyers, sellers, and investors and have personal relationships with leading industry decision makers. As a result, we are not forced to contact and screen long lists of acquisitions or targets, thus avoiding wasting resources and overexposing our clients. We can make rifle shot approaches on the targets we know who would be most amenable to a transaction and the best partners for our clients. And we understand how a company’s commercial capabilities relate to valuation and transaction interests.
