First, I congratulate my esteemed friends and wish them continued success. Since the day 3 Seas Capital Partners was established, we have worked together and have vastly benefited from their know-how and experience in every investment we have made as a company.

We have worked with 3 Seas Capital Partners on six different transactions to date. Our experience during the first transaction served as a strong benchmark for the strategic and financial management of our following investments, and we were thoroughly satisfied with each of the processes we undertook together.

3 Seas Capital Partners’ team and partners know our priorities almost better than we do; and they consider our company as one of their own. Such an approach has always enabled them to provide us with the best advice. Consequently, we make sure to consult 3 Seas Capital Partners and obtain their valuable perspective and insight prior to reaching a verdict with regards to all of our important decisions.

Our past experiences have, more than once, shown us that the exclusive "camaraderie” and flexibility we have with 3 Seas Capital Partners is not easy to find with other M&A advisors.

I believe that 3 Seas Capital Partners has a unique structure that combines humane and moral values with the business competencies provided by all reputable global investment banks. I also strongly believe that the pioneering role taken by the firm in Turkey over the last 10 years has set a great example for both the sector and its clients, demonstrating how this job is correctly done.

I present my sincere gratitude to 3 Seas Capital Partners for being with us for so many years, with their cross-border corporate business network and their expertise.
