Finding the best solution

Employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) offer unique opportunities and present distinct challenges for business owners. Whether you’re an existing ESOP or contemplating an ESOP transaction, you’re in good hands with our skilled ESOP investment bankers.

Having designed and installed ESOPs for companies of all sizes around the country, PCE can help you determine whether employee ownership is right for you and your business. And having completed more than $3 billion of ESOP transactions for privately held companies, we also understand how, when, and why to sell a company — of any size — to an ESOP.

As a firm with the experience of a large company and the customer service of a boutique, we bring our broad experience to bear on your specific situation. We take the time to understand your goals and your business. We give your stakeholders a complimentary preliminary analysis to establish whether an ESOP is the best option for you.
