Pacific Mercantile Bank Provides Financing to Mako Steel

/EIN News/ -- COSTA MESA, Calif., Dec. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacific Mercantile Bank (“the Bank”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific Mercantile Bancorp (NASDAQ: PMBC), today announced that it has provided a credit facility to Mako Steel.  The credit facility supplements the recent investment in Mako Steel made by New State Capital Partners, as well as provides for ongoing working capital needs.  In addition to the financing, Mako Steel utilizes a full suite of Pacific Mercantile Bank’s depository products and treasury management services.

Founded in 1993, Mako Steel designs, supplies, and installs steel buildings for the self-storage industry.  Their services include the design and construction of single-story, multi-story, conversions, custom buildings, auto, boat, & RV storage, building components, container storage, engineering services, metal buildings, mobile, portable & container storage, and roofing.  Based in Carlsbad, California, Mako Steel has operations located throughout the country and specializes in working with first-time customers.  Mako Steel was named "Best Builder" five years in a row by Inside Self-Storage.

“We are very excited about partnering with New State Capital Partners and taking our business to the next level,” said Caesar Wright, CEO of Mako Steel.  “Pacific Mercantile Bank played an integral role in this transaction.  Their team was able to quickly understand our business model and customize a credit facility that will enable us to continue investing in our business and capitalize on the strong growth opportunities that we are seeing across the country.”

“Mako Steel has built a leadership position in the high growth market for commercial and residential storage,” said Josh Skevington, Senior Operating Partner of New State Capital Partners.  “We previously worked with Pacific Mercantile Bank on the financing for another one of our portfolio companies. When the opportunity arose with Mako Steel, we knew that Pacific Mercantile Bank could provide the quick turnaround that we needed to meet our timeline for completing this transaction.”

“We appreciate New State Capital Partners bringing us in on another one of its transactions,” said Rob Parks, Senior Vice President at Pacific Mercantile Bank.  “The firm has a long track record of adding value to its portfolio companies and we expect Mako Steel to continue to flourish as a result of its partnership with New State Capital Partners.”
