KippsDeSanto & Co. Advises Labat-Anderson Incorporated on its Sale to US Investigations Services, Inc.
KippsDeSanto & Co. is pleased to send you the attached press release announcing the acquisition of our client, Labat-Anderson Incorporated (“Labat”), on May 18th, 2009 by US Investigations Services, Inc.
Based in McLean, VA, Labat is a leading litigation support and information management solutions firm, and leverages its nearly 700 employees to provide such solutions to the Department of Justice and other U.S. Civilian Agencies. KippsDeSanto & Co. acted as exclusive financial advisor to Labat in this transaction.
This transaction represents a number of key trends in government services contracting M&A:
• The M&A market for leading government services firms has materially rebounded over the past few months.
• Given its size, performance, and focus, Labat received very strong market interest (even during recent turbulent market times).
• Like Health IT, Intel, Energy, Cybersecurity, and other “hot” areas, given recent scandals and the overall litigious environment, Litigation Support is expected to be a significant growth area in the future.
KippsDeSanto & Co. is an investment bank focused on delivering M&A and financing transaction results for leading technology and defense companies. For more information on KippsDeSanto & Co., please visit www.kippsdesanto.com.
