Meaning of Capstone
When we formed the business, we chose the name Capstone because we felt it encompassed our entire mission. Capstone exists to help shareholders and entrepreneurs either maximize their equity value (a “crowning achievement”) or secure capital to achieve new levels of corporate growth (a “high point”).
Capstone: also has ancient origins as the summit stone in a pyramid, which served to harness the wisdom and energies of the community to the sun. We were also attracted to this meaning because we deliver highly structured finance solutions for "Sunset" and "Sunrise" transactions.
Some entrepreneurs are fortunate enough to realize significant wealth from their sweat equity. Most do not. We execute merger and acquisition transactions ("Sunset") so that our clients can realize the value that they deserve.
The ability to access capital sources to fuel growth can play a critical role in corporate lifecycles. It can separate the leaders from the followers. We execute financing transactions ("Sunrise") to help management teams achieve their visions.
Lastly, a final definition referred to "capstone" as a coping stone.
If you are considering a complex transaction, either for liquidity or growth, you will need to speak with experts you can trust to help you sort through the complexities of the decision (“coping”). Let us harness our knowledge and energies to pull it all together and help you achieve your goals.
