Transaction

Tech Optics Sale

Meta Corporate Finance is pleased to extend its track record of completing transactions for its clients despite the economic conditions and difficult funding markets, with the announcement of the sale of Tech Optics Limited to Stuart Carter.

The company, based in Tonbridge, Kent, designs, sources, provides added value and distributes technical fibre optical products. In addition Tech Optics has a production department and includes cable assembly.

The shareholders of Tech Optics, John and Sandra Tait, had approached Meta to handle the sale on their behalf, allowing them to concentrate on the running and continued development of the company. Negotiations were held with a number of parties, and a deal was happily concluded with Stuart Carter.

The transaction, terms of which have not been disclosed, was funded by Royal Bank of Scotland and by incoming management.

“We are very grateful to Peter Counsell for his experienced support during the negotiations. He understood the nature of ITUK and its philosophy and skilfully guided us through the maze of issues that are inherent in such a complex transaction. Meta had a very difficult role as they were heavily involved in negotiating in two cultures."

“I am very happy to see Murston Plant now under GSE’s ownership. The negotiations proceeded in a very professional manner, as you would expect, but this was aided significantly by Peter Counsell’s role as lead adviser. He maintained an air of calm that helped the transaction move to a successful conclusion.”

Murston Plant
“This was a complex transaction, handled with great skill by Peter Counsell at Meta. We had to find a structure that accommodated the requirements of the exiting, ongoing and incoming shareholders and of the funders. Peter’s experience in building such structures and his knowledge of the funding market was vital to the achievement of those requirements.”
