Services Provided
MelCap Partners served as the exclusive investment banker and financial advisor to Reuther in the sale of the Company. We’d like to thank Reuther for hiring MelCap Partners to represent the Company in this transaction. It was an honor and pleasure to work with the Company throughout this exciting process.
The Result
In an effort to provide the shareholders with liquidity, and to continue to support the Company’s strategic growth plans, MelCap Partners was able to successfully identify the ideal buyer for the business. As a result, Reuther was sold to Fidelis Holdings, LLC (“Fidelis”), headquartered in Bingham Farms, MI. Fidelis is a holding company that owns and acquires manufacturing companies in the highly engineered product space.
“I am excited for the ownership transition to Fidelis. Karl A. and Karl A.A., my grandfather who founded the Company and my dad who carried us into the CNC world, would be pleased for this next chapter for our Company. It has been an honor and privilege for me as the third-generation owner to lead Reuther Mold for the past three decades, working with hundreds of talented and dedicated employees making some ‘neat stuff.’ I will miss it. I thank my employees and my family for their huge sacrifices, and I thank God for the wisdom and strength that He entrusted to me. I wish the best for Fidelis and its employees. I would also like to thank MelCap for all their efforts to bring this sale across the finish line.”
