At all times we were impressed by the diligent way in which Pat Sutton and his colleagues carried out their due diligence work in order to arrive at a market valuation, how quick they were to understand our complex group with 400 employees and many companies, active in 3 different countries. A striking fact was the constructive and objective way of working with us, even when they were finally retained by an investor who successfully invested into our Holding Company. We have no hesitation in highly recommending O’KellySutton as accountants and business consultants for any complex financial or corporate finance work

Sven Von Der Heyden, Chairman, Von Der Heyden Group

BioTector Analytical Systems Ltd. have been the beneficiary of ongoing support from O’KellySutton on matters of strategic and financial advice throughout my period as both Managing Director and then Chairman of the company while in private ownership. This relationship commenced in the late 90's when as a start-up business the company undertook its first strategic development programme led by O’KellySutton. The success and growth of the company resulting from this initial programme led to a number of further strategic development programmes run by O’KellySutton over the following 18 years.

O’KellySutton also acted as advisers to the Company in negotiating an early stage significant distribution agreement with a major international Distributor.

When the shareholders were approached regarding a possible acquisition it was only natural that we turned to O’KellySutton for advice and guidance. O’KellySutton helped to establish a fair but aggressive market valuation and produced a professional comprehensive Information Memorandum which became the foundation document for further negotiations.

O’KellySutton's help and support to the Shareholders throughout the complex discussions were invaluable and contributed significantly to the successful outcome of the negotiations.

O’KellySutton continues to advise me on a personal level, with regard to investments opportunities and management of same

Martin Horan, Chairman, BioTector Analytical Systems Ltd

To help take our growing business to the next stage of growth we recently hired O’KellySutton to help create a Strategic Plan for our business. The process itself was extremely insightful. An initial off-site day allowed us to examine all aspects of the business from the outside in. Pat and the team at O’KellySutton helped us to view the business and the objectives from a completely alternative perspective. We quickly started to identify bottle necks and possible solutions to implement this. The session itself helped energise us and focus on the most important targets as well as a full review of our model. From this initial session alone we took away a lot of learnings and concepts. The session was followed up over a number of days and the result was a Strategic Business Plan with monthly goals and targets over a 5 year period as well as an updated model which will be reviewed regularly. The O’KellySutton Team spent a lot of time listening and learning about our business before drawing up the strategic business plan. The business was examined from a financial, HR and customer level as well as internal practices. I cannot recommend this session highly enough. We now view the O’KellySutton team as a trusted advisor in the background who are available whenever we need to provide advice and keep us clearly focused on our goals.

Robert Conlan, Managing Director, Fitzwilliam Group

O’KellySutton have provided accounting and strategic business services to various, and diverse businesses we are involved with over the past 20 years. The term business “partner” is bandied around a lot, and often used very lightly, but it is safe to say that it is the only way to describe our experience with O’KellySutton. They have always acted proactively in our best interests and continually surprise us with their level of understanding and depth of knowledge across industries. Tough business decisions have been presented more and more in recent years but one major reassurance is having the experience and expertise of Pat Sutton, Patrick O’Rourke and their team on hand

John Cleary, CEO Ravensdale Group

O’KellySutton have been our accountants and auditors since we commenced business in 2002. During this time, O’KellySutton have been very good for my business and have played an important role in our success and have provided us with a lot of expertise in many areas. On a personal level, I have found Pat Sutton a very good business advisor and have used his expertise in matters relating to accountancy, tax, business development & strategy and personal finance. His pragmatic and objective approach to problem-solving has stood to me over the years and usually allows me to make the right decision at the time.

Richard Dunne, MD Granite Concepts

I worked with Patrick and his team in 2020 and they were of great help to me and the company I founded in creating a tax-efficient deal which worked for all sides. I found Patrick and all in O'Kelly Sutton professional and diligent and a pleasure to work with.

I would have no hesitancy in recommending them as a company.

Mark O’Byrne

As a start-up looking to raise substantial funds, it was important that we retained experienced and credible corporate financial advisors with a proven track record to help us roll out our business plan. Having now gone through two successful fund-raising rounds in a very difficult 2020 we were very glad we engaged O’KellySutton. They presented well thought out and compelling valuation methodologies to potential investors. We are happy to report we have just successfully concluded a second funding raising round where we secured a further €2m investment.
