Going into this process, we knew the ESOP structure we wanted to achieve would not be simple. BDO Capital Advisors brought the experience and clarity we needed to move forward with confidence. They didn’t just advise, they challenged our thinking when needed and made sure we understood the “why” behind every decision. They were proactive, transparent, and fully engaged throughout the process. The result was a structure that works for both the company and our long-term vision. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.
