Testimonials

“We’ve had a great experience working with Ascendiant. Their team is very responsive and their At-the-Market instruments are extremely flexible and cost-effective. We definitely will be working with Ascendiant going forward on additional transactions in our portfolio of public companies.”

“I found Ascendiant to be a trusted partner in the sale of our business. During a pandemic-dominated economy, timing and presentation were critical elements of the sale process. Ascendiant’s diligence, counsel, and advice led to the successful closing of our transaction, and I am most appreciative to have worked with the Ascendiant team.”

“Ascendiant has distinguished themselves as a trusted partner with a clear focus on learning about our business and understanding our unique position in the marketplace. They were the first to discover our company at an early pre-revenue stage and have been of great help in guiding us through a variety of capital strategies – deal and non-deal related. We value our relationship with the Ascendiant team.”

“Over the last four decades, I have been engaged in the acquisition and divestiture of a variety of small, closely held pharmaceutical and medical device companies. Based on that experience, I highly recommend the Ascendiant team for their insight, professionalism, and perseverance in identifying appropriate entities on both sides of buy-sell transactions as well as for their record of success in facilitating completed deals.”

“Ascendiant has been a trusted advisor to our companies for several years and I deeply appreciate the team’s intense focus on building a long-term relationship and understanding a company’s needs. I believe this company-centric approach is a direct result of the fact that Ascendiant’s bankers have started and managed businesses of their own. They possess a unique understanding of the challenges faced in building a team, investing in R&D, and commercializing products and technologies. I look forward to a long and fruitful partnership with Ascendiant as we seek to build successful growth companies.”

“SINTX Technologies has had a constructive M&A engagement with Ascendiant for several years. Throughout the engagement, Ascendiant has listened to our evolving needs and conducted an organized, structured, and methodical approach to search for suitable targets.

The result has been two successful acquisitions in two years for SINTX.”

“Ascendiant is very client-focused, and they are particularly astute at understanding the obstacles and pressures a micro-cap public company and management team faces.
