Testimonial:
We recently completed the sale of our company, and we would like to highlight the exceptional support provided by Wandrille and André from EC2 throughout this journey.
They supported us over several years in structuring the sale process. At the time, we were honestly quite disorganized, and despite strong results and an impressive track record, the presentation of our financials remained unclear and fragmented.
They demonstrated remarkable patience, rigor, and professionalism in bringing order, clarity, and value to our financial story.
The process was not linear: we experienced turning points, changes in approach, and many ups and downs.
Wandrille and André were consistently present, rolled up their sleeves, and continued the work relentlessly.
They each bring different approaches, but their complementarity creates a true synergy — and the results speak for themselves. Their guidance was instrumental in the success of this transaction.
We would not hesitate to recommend them to any shareholder group or entrepreneur seeking strong, reliable support through a process as demanding and transformative as the sale of a business.
