CHARLOTTE, N.C.,

Feb. 4, 2020

/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BlackArch Partners ("BlackArch") is pleased to announce the sale of Pine Environmental Services, LLC ("Pine" or the "Company"), a portfolio company of Saw Mill Capital, to ACON Investments, L.L.C. ("ACON"). Pine, headquartered in Windsor, New Jersey, is a leading specialty provider of environmental, health and safety and asset integrity testing and measurement equipment solutions. The Company's comprehensive offering of rental equipment and services, consumables and equipment sales and ancillary services support high-frequency and regulatory-driven air, water, soil and asset integrity testing needs. With 38 strategically-located facilities across the United States and Canada, Pine is an established market leader with a diverse and growing network of blue-chip environmental consultant and asset integrity customers.

BlackArch was retained by Saw Mill Capital and management to serve as the Company's exclusive financial advisor.

Scott Rivard, Partner at Saw Mill Capital, commented, "We chose BlackArch for their combination of deep environmental services, TIC and rental experience. They took the time to understand Pine's differentiated business model in depth and brought strong underlying industry knowledge and experience. BlackArch followed through on their commitment to provide extensive senior and junior deal team support at every stage of the deal, and their thoughtful positioning and process discipline, speed and thoroughness yielded a great outcome for Saw Mill and our investors."

Greg Rzonca, Chief Executive Officer at Pine, added, "Simply put, we would not have achieved what we aspired to achieve, without the keen stewardship of the BlackArch deal team. Their genuine appreciation for the vision of management led to our ideal partnership with ACON. Their ability to deeply understand and clearly communicate our business model and unique value proposition, directly contributed to our shareholders realizing a desirable outcome. Throughout the entire process, the BlackArch team continuously earned my confidence, my respect, and ultimately my appreciation."

Angelo Pinheiro, Pine's Founder, also added, "Having been through a sale process before, we knew the importance of selecting an advisor that had a deep understanding of our business model, our culture and what truly differentiated Pine within the environmental and asset integrity testing and measurement market. Not only did BlackArch excel in all of these areas, but their extensive preparation, rigorous process management and high attention to detail enabled our team to remain focused on running the business and ultimately delivered a great outcome for Pine's shareholders and management team."
