May 1, 2020
HOUSTON (May 1, 2020) – In a video awards announcement produced by Association for Corporate Growth (ACG) Houston on April 28, Houston-based Welcome Group was named a winner of ACG’s Deal of the Year Award for their joint venture with Almanac Realty Investors, a New York-based REIT. BoyarMiller represented long-time client Welcome Group in this complex transaction, which closed in 2019.
ACG Houston is focused on celebrating Houston’s booming middle-market deal community. Their mission is to honor the deals and dealmakers who drive middle-market growth resulting in job growth, capital formation, and the advancement of meaningful business relationships.
Welcome Group, an industrial real estate development company, formed a joint venture with Almanac allowing them to expand outside of Texas for the first time, as well as grow their portfolio by close to $1 billion. Bill Boyar led the BoyarMiller team and represented both the Welcome Group and the joint venture. The transaction was highly complex and involved multiple sets of attorneys, more than 20 lenders, and 150 documents covering all aspects of debt structure, equity investment, corporate governance, and tax-efficient restructuring.
“We were proud to represent Welcome Group in this extremely important deal that helped secure the future of the company,” said Bill Boyar. “It is thrilling now to see a deal of this magnitude recognized by ACG.”
Boyar led the BoyarMiller team that included Senior Associate Cyrus Chin and Associate Alex Parker.
