As 2024 comes to a close, we at Lawrence Financial reflect on a year filled with growth, collaboration, and remarkable achievements.
One of our biggest milestones was welcoming Mena M. Rizk as a partner. Mena’s expertise and leadership have been instrumental in expanding our marketing, business development, and client relations initiatives, solidifying our position as a leading provider of innovative financial solutions.
We are also proud to celebrate Haze Walker, who received recognition as a Dealmarker Icon and was named a 2024 Visionary in Finance by the Los Angeles Times. These accolades highlight Haze's unwavering dedication to excellence and leadership in the financial sector.
In addition to these recognitions, we applaud our very own Larry Hurwitz, who launched a mentoring program this year to give back to young entrepreneurs. Larry’s passion for fostering the next generation of business leaders is a reflection of Lawrence Financial’s commitment to community and growth.
This year, we are proud to have funded over $200 million in transactions.
Here are some of the highlights:
An $11 million rollup of a Hawaiian franchise, showcasing our ability to navigate complex mergers and acquisitions.
A $30 million asset-based line of credit, enabling a business to scale efficiently.
A $5 million ABL facility for a consumer products company, supporting its growth and operations.
A $3 million bridge note for an aerospace manufacturer, providing critical interim financing.
A $1 million financing for a direct-to-consumer seafood distributor, helping them expand their market reach.
A $30 million private fund deal to fuel growth for a Southern California restaurant chain.
These accomplishments are a testament to the trust our valued associates and clients place in us. We are deeply grateful for your referrals and partnerships, which empower us to deliver outstanding financial solutions.
As we look ahead to 2025, we remain committed to fostering long-term relationships, driving business success, and providing the best financing options to our clients.
Here’s to another year of collaboration, innovation, and success. From all of us at Lawrence Financial, we wish you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous new year!
Warm regards,
The Lawrence Financial Team
