R.L. Hulett is honored to be recognized as one of Axial's 2023 Top 50 Lower Middle-Market Consumer Investors and M&A Advisors. In recent years, the consumer sector has faced a number of obstacles: a decline in discretionary spending; interest rate increases; challenges associated with forecasting forward demand and potential margin contraction.

Good news ~ IPOs show signs of life ~ That whisper you hear is the sound of air rushing in from the initial public offering window, which finally may have cracked this week because of moves by restaurant chain Cava and airline company Surf Air. A market in turmoil and an uncertain economy have chilled IPOs for over a year, but there are no shortage of companies patiently waiting for an opening. The big picture: So far this year, there have been 44 U.S. IPOs, raising $7.3 billion — on a clear track for 2023 to surpass last year's 71 IPOs that raised $7.7 billion, per Renaissance Capital data. Issuers are increasingly eager to tap the market, especially as bullish sentiment nudges Wall Street higher. Some good signs of public market activity in the US, as we have already seen great activity in the Middle East, London, Australia and Asia.
