Mirus Advises Aztec Technology Partners on Sale of Its PCM subsidiary to Onward Technologies

Mirus Capital Advisors, a leading middle market investment bank, is pleased to announce its role as advisor in the sale of PCM, Inc., a subsidiary of Aztec Technology Partners (NASDAQ: AZTC), to Onward Technologies, Inc. of Chicago, Illinois. Aztec Technology Partners, headquartered in Braintree, Massachusetts, is a leading provider of e-Solutions for middle market and Fortune 1000 companies across a broad range of industries. PCM, Inc., an established network integrator based in Chicago, provides complete integration solutions to its Central United States customer base.

“This transaction accomplishes the goals of both Aztec and the buyer,” said Jamie Grant, a partner at Mirus Capital Advisors. “PCM is an excellent fit geographically and technically with the buyer, and the divestiture creates significant tax benefits for Aztec while enabling the Company to focus more effectively on its core business.”

In an Aztec press release, Ira Cohen, Aztec’s president and chief operating officer, said, “It was critical that we complete the sale of PCM before year-end in order to realize the substantial tax benefits before the fiscal year end. With this transaction behind us, Aztec will now focus on divesting our three remaining non-core businesses, reducing our bank debt, and maximizing the value of Blueflame, our e-solutions subsidiary, for Aztec shareholders.”
