Clairvest scores big wins with Cieslok exit, Rivers Casino recap
Clairvest Group is seeing a lucrative payday following its sale of a Canadian out-of-home advertising business and the refinancing of a U.S. casino. This month Clairvest sold Cieslok Media, a Toronto operator of large-format digital and static billboards. The sale was preceded by a US$600 million recapitalization of Rivers Casino, a Des Plaines, Illinois, gaming and entertainment complex backed by Clairvest. These two deals, occurring a month apart, brought realized returns of Clairvest Equity Partners IV to 5.4x of invested capital and an IRR of 49 percent.
