ABOUT THE COMPANY:

4M Building Solutions ("4M" or the "Company") is an industry-leading full-service cleaning, janitorial, housekeeping, and disinfection services Company. Founded in 1978 and headquartered in St. Louis, MO, 4M operates with 6,575 team members servicing over 206 million square feet of space in corporate owner-occupied facilities, multi-tenant office buildings, and facilities supporting industrial and manufacturing, logistics, distribution, education, healthcare, and senior living. 4M has been an O2 Investment Partners ("O2") portfolio company since 2023.

SITUATION:

Under the leadership of CEO Tim Murch, 4M has executed a robust acquisition strategy, successfully completing 32 transactions since its inception. This strategic growth, aimed at increasing client and service density in key markets, has positioned 4M as a leader in the janitorial services sector. As a result, O2 now has a unique opportunity to specialize within this fragmented industry, leveraging 4M's established market presence and sophisticated growth model.

ENGAGEMENT:

4M and O2 engaged G2 Capital Advisors ("G2") as the exclusive buy-side advisor to identify and originate acquisition targets that meet the Company's criteria and expansion goals.

OUTCOME:

4M acquired Thario Building Services ("Thario"), based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on August 1, 2024. Founded in 1991, Thario is renowned for its commercial janitorial and post-clean services, catering to medical clinics, hospitals, schools, office buildings, manufacturing facilities, and construction sites. This acquisition brings 290 new team members who are responsible for cleaning ~8 million square feet daily into the 4M family. "Geographically, it’s an excellent fit for us, creating opportunities to expand throughout the state. More important, it’s a cultural fit," said Tim Murch, 4M CEO. "I want to express my gratitude to our G2 partners, who consistently demonstrate a deep understanding of our business and the industry at large by delivering targeted solutions." "4M and O2 continue to be the partner of choice for high-quality janitorial services operators seeking a strategic growth partner or an ownership transition. This acquisition combines 4M’s customer-centric facility service offering with the trusted and tenured brand in central and northeast Wisconsin. Thario’s leadership in the medical and healthcare industry verticals is a great addition to 4M’s growing expertise in that sector." said Brian Steffens, Managing Director at G2 Capital Advisors. "We are pleased to support this partnership and energized to realize more successes together."
