Quality Powder Coatings, Inc. has been Acquired by Ripio Coatings, LLC

Atlanta, GA June 7, 2019, Sunbelt Business Brokers – Atlanta is pleased to announce the acquisition of
its client, Quality Powder Coatings, Inc. ("QPC", by Ripio Coatings, LLC ("Ripio").

Founded in 1995 by George Osentoski, Quality Powder Coatings has built an outstanding reputation in
the Atlanta market for consistently delivering high-quality work, project after project, for over two
decades – growth achieved almost entirely through word-of-mouth referrals rather than advertising.
Operating from a 15,000 square foot facility on nearly two acres in Lilburn, GA, QPC serves a diversified
base of commercial B2B clients, including sheet metal fabricators, architectural metal shops, automotive
companies, and the lighting and tradeshow/exhibits industries, with no single customer representing
more than 15% of revenue. Ripio Coatings, LLC is led by Marc Martinez, a seasoned corporate leader
with a proven track record of improving top- and bottom-line performance, who acquired QPC to bring
his operational and management expertise to bear in scaling the business.

Sunbelt Atlanta initiated and advised on the sale of QPC, serving as the exclusive M&A advisor to the
Company. The transaction was led by Dealmaker Doreen Morgan who leveraged Sunbelt Atlanta's
targeted sell-side process to position the company with qualified strategic buyers and structure a
transaction that aligned with the owner's financial and succession objectives.

Owners of secondary manufacturing, powder coating and/or metal finishing companies considering a
sale can leverage Sunbelt Atlanta's targeted sell-side process to access qualified strategic and financial
buyers, maximize after-tax proceeds, and structure a transition that fits their personal and succession
goals.

This transaction highlights the strong demand from strategic and financial buyers for well-established,
reputation-driven industrial services businesses with diversified customer bases and reliable, recurring
commercial work. Owners of powder coating and metal finishing companies considering a sale can
benefit from Sunbelt Atlanta's targeted, confidential sell-side process designed to maximize valuation,
expand buyer reach, and deliver a smooth ownership transition.
