"Peter Colmer has been a valuable financial adviser to our organization for nearly 17 years. His business acumen and knowledge of financial markets have enhanced our company's ability to succeed through turbulent business cycles."

Stuart Weidie
President, Blossman Gas

"Since 1994, Peter Colmer has been involved in all aspects of our company's financial planning and execution, initially as a consultant, and beginning in 1995, as an outside director on the company's board as well. Over the 22-year relationship with Peter, he has been instrumental in helping MAS increase profitability tenfold and securing very favorable financing for acquisitions of equipment and other operating companies, which helped us expand into new markets. Peter was the lead negotiator for those acquisitions, with which the other Principals of MAS are very pleased.

In 2006, MAS sold one of its operation groups to a consortium in California. Peter once again was the lead negotiator of this deal, producing a sale price equal to 15 times EBITDA, on an all-cash basis. Peter has been a big part of the success that MAS has enjoyed over the years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough should your company or the situation require an additional strategic or operational financial resource."

"Our firm exhausted a wide range of traditional financing sources before engaging Peter Colmer on our project. Their story included a difficult Chapter 11 in our recent past and the need for significant new financing. The outreach for funding addressed more than 50 sources. In short order, the company received several competitive offers, including one which met all the needs with favorable structure and terms. Mr. Colmer enabled our business to move forward, enjoying 400% growth over the subsequent 10 years. The value of obtaining proper capital will forever make Mr. Colmer's contribution to our business monumental."
