M&A SOUTH 2022 CHAIRMAN’S WELCOME Welcome to M&A South! By attending in the 20th year of the conference, you are part of the premier sourcing, networking, and educational event for dealmakers in the Southern U.S. We are thankful for your attendance and support. The planning committee has been working since last summer to assemble another great conference for the M&A community. We are excited to provide an opportunity for conference participants and sponsors to both fill their pipelines and sharpen their expertise through speakers and breakout panels. After missing the opportunity to gather in person in 2021, we are excited to return in person to the Hotel at Avalon and Convention Center. This “Sip & Stroll” community allows us to leave the convention center hall and provide meaningful conversations and connections throughout the property. To augment our health and safety protocols, we have invested in an outdoor tented space to provide attendees with a covered, outdoor gathering space adjacent to the main ballroom. We hope that you were able to join us on January 19 for my fireside chat with Derek Schiller, the President and CEO of the World Champion Atlanta Braves. The momentum continues with our outstanding lineup of speakers and thought leaders for this event, including our Keynote Conversation with Marc Gorlin of Roadie and Brian Dykes of UPS. During the conference, we will have panels on key topics for the M&A community that we encourage you to attend. We will open the conference on the afternoon of February 7th with networking and meetings. The Dealmaker’s Lounge and the Exhibit Hall will be open for all attendees. The evening will bring together all conference attendees and sponsors for a wonderful cocktail reception sponsored by Chatham Capital. Hors d’oeuvres and cocktails will provide a perfect opportunity for networking before heading out for plans the night may hold for you. Tuesday, February 8th will be a packed day. Listening to feedback from prior years, we have a balance of expanded meeting times while still producing relevant and timely content sessions. Our meeting spaces open at 7:00 am to maximize your meeting times. The formal schedule begins at 8:30 am with the popular Reverse Capital Connection. During this time, investment banks and mezzanine capital sources will be exhibitors while the private equity groups, corporate
2
development officers, and other attendees will have the opportunity to obtain insights on prospective deal flow in 2022 and beyond. Our opening session on Tuesday begins at 10:30 with a welcome from our new Platinum sponsor Cadence Bank, ACG, and our Keynote sponsor EY. Brittany Moeller of Goldman Sachs will lead a great fireside chat with EY’s Entrepreneur Of The Year® National award winner Marc Gorlin of Roadie & UPS’ Brian Dykes. They will discuss the how’s and why’s of UPS’ acquisition of Roadie this year and give us a glimpse into the future of logistics. Following lunch, our concurrent set of panels highlights what is driving value in the many Healthcare deals attendees are seeing, as well as our ever-popular annual update on M&A deal trends. The centerpiece of the conference will again feature the Private Equity Marketplace, with plenty of time for the deal community to meet with the private equity groups who make it a priority to exhibit at our conference. This session will be followed by the final two panels of the day, one on how the Debt Markets are reacting and the other gaining M&A insights from Strategic Dealmakers in our community. Our panelists are sure to deliver great information for you to take back to your clients, customers, and portfolio companies. On the morning of Wednesday, February 9th, we will open our meeting spaces again at 7:00 am. These will be first-come, first-served to finish up your conference. The invitation-only Marketplace will begin networking at 8:00 am and one-onone meetings at 8:30 am. We hope that you will spend some time in the evenings at our beautiful venue at Avalon. South City Kitchen, Rumi’s Kitchen, Oak Steakhouse, and Ford Fry’s El Felix are some of the best restaurants in the city. Avalon is an open-container community, so don’t feel tied down to any of the wonderful nightlife options the community has to offer. None of this would be possible without our loyal sponsors, many of whom have supported this event for more than a decade. On behalf of the M&A SOUTH Committee and ACG Atlanta, I hope you will find this event a great way to build your pipeline for 2022. Welcome. Jason Goode Partner, Alston & Bird Chair, M&A SOUTH 2022
A WORD FROM THE ACG ATLANTA CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Welcome! Thank you for attending our 20th annual M&A South event. The ACG Atlanta Board of Directors and I look forward to hearing about the great business value and expansion of your professional networks you will gain by participating. ACG’s global mission is to drive middle-market growth. Our organization is comprised of over 14,500 global members and Atlanta is one of the largest chapters. We consistently hear that the M&A South conference is an essential start to each New Year. It serves as a key connection point for the deal-making community, both locally and nationally, through all of the people who travel here to participate year after year. The relationships our attendees establish and build through ACG events have a positive impact on their business and careers, and this year’s conference is certain to deliver that for you again. ACG Atlanta continually strives to find new ways to drive middle-market growth and promote networking within the deal community. In addition to promoting the growth of our membership base of corporate/strategic buyers, this year we have expanded the Marketplace for companies to meet with Private and Growth Equity firms and each other. This exchange of ideas and contacts will help continue the growth of the middle market ecosystem in Atlanta and the South. This conference is one of many opportunities our members have to network with the “Who’s Who” of the Atlanta business community. With a membership base comprised of corporate leaders, investors, and advisors that serve the middle market, the benefits of exchanging information, opportunities, and growth strategies with decision-makers abound. We hope you will also join us at our next signature event, the ACG Atlanta Georgia Fast 40 Celebration on June 28th to honor Georgia’s 40 Fastest-Growing Companies. In addition, there are many other social and content events and, in September, we proudly present the return of Taste of ACG Atlanta (formerly our Annual Wine Event), which has gained a reputation for quality networking and superior wine and food. We welcome you to join ACG, attend our events, and become involved behind the scenes in committees as well. Many thanks to the Chair of M&A South 2022, Jason Goode, and to the entire committee for its great efforts in making M&A South another “Must-Attend Event” for the ACG and M&A community. Very truly yours, Steve Tye Managing Director, Croft & Bender LP Chair of the Board, ACG Atlanta
